May 28   Can I share something with all the renters out there? Of course you might want to have cash in the bank. How much did you pay in taxes last year? Now is the time to buy!   Low home prices Low interest rates, Abundance of inventory And last night was the fuel to the fire. Analysts anounced the end of the recession is this year.   How many people are jumping off the fence and making now the time to buy?   If there is even a small thought of buying, don't wait for the rush to happen. It is not good for the Buyer Being beat out by multiple offers sometimes multiple times The Realtor having to tell their client The home they have found to be perfect, has other offers that were higher offers than theirs. The trick is buy, when everybody else is not doing the same. I am afraid if you ... 05/28/2009

The $8,000 tax credit is a necessity for some first time home buyers. Knowing that they can get this money, is something that some first time home buyers are using in making a decision to purchase a home now. With many more bank owned homes coming on the market in the next few months, it is important to teach the public about this tax credit. The tax credit can be utilized right away after the purchase of a home by modifying the tax return that was filed for 2008.  Depending on when the purchase took place, I guess you have to look if it makes sense to wait until you file your 2009 tax returns or file for a modification now. My client who purchased a home in May, using modifying her 2008 tax returns to take advantage of the $8,000 tax credit now. I also have a few more first time home b... 05/22/2009

I finalized the purchase of a home today for my clients.  It took 45 days to close on an FHA loan.  What a process it was.  Not only did the process take the entire 45 days, there were a lot of conditions. The loan amount was over $417K, so we needed two appraisals. We needed to make sure there was no issues with the house, like needing repairs, or we needed to make those corrections before the loan could fund. Finally at the end, it was satisfying to know that my buyers could now move into their new house. It was a long process, tiring with all the conditions that was asked from my buyers, but untimately, finalized. Would I choose to do a deal using FHA loan again? If I had the choice, I would guide my buyers to another direction if possible.  There are still loans available with only ... 05/22/2009
