Buying Real Estate
Foreclosures in most conditions, will save you thousands of dollars while
giving you a home that is valued considerable greater than the purchase
price. Making an offer to purchase foreclosure
real estate, in many cases is easier than buying from a private owned
home listing.. While you could save
thousands they remain a
really good buy. Freddie Mac foreclosed homes are usually priced well below market and you usually get instant equity. They will pay for your closing costs, if the price is right, but they will not pay for buyers closing costs plus the down. Even if this is added on to the purchase price, they will only consider paying one of these charges. They require a $500.00 up to $1000.00 earnest money check when the offer is made. They do reply to offers in a really short time, usually 24 hours. In most conditions repairs will be made and the homes will be comparable to other property in the area. Each mortgage company has its own individual guidelines so check this out before writing your offer. Most offers do require an earnest money deposit and a pre-approval letter from the buyers mortgage company. Most mortgage companies will not pay for any inspections or repairs. A short sale is very different from a foreclosure. This is usually a pre-foreclosure and the mortgage company considers bids that are less than the owners owe on their mortgage. On most short sales, if the mortgage company agrees, the difference on the owed amount and the sale amount is written off by the mortgage company. On a short sale you can not be in any hurry to move. Short sales can and usually do take weeks if not months for the mortgage company to get back with your agent on the offer. If the bottom line is what the mortgage company will accept, they will consider helping with closing costs. Property purchased "AS IS" condition in most situations.

Columbus and Central Ohio Buyers: Making the Right Choice There are so many different homes to choose from during the buying process. How can you be sure to make the right choice? From condos, downtown neighborhoods, suburbs, and country homes, there's a perfect fit for every buyer. To make the best decision you need to be sure to really give time to your decision making process. Yes, your gut can take you in the right direction, but don't be one of the many buyers that falls prey to listening only to their hearts, ending up biting off more than they can chew. Some homes take more work than others. This goes double for older homes. The same can be said for many foreclosed Real Estate. The price tag might be appealing or you might love the styling of the home, but keep in mind that much of a home's value is actually in its condition. Many Freddie Mac foreclosures are being repaired and upgraded to improve their appearance and condition and still are sold under market value. This is why it is imperative to have an inspection done on any home you are considering buying. Additionally, you should have a clause in your contract that states if the inspection comes back unsatisfactorily that you, the buyer, have the right to end the contract to buy. Different homes also comes with different lifestyle factors. Some buyers love the idea of having everything within walking distance. They like spending their extra time meeting friends for dinner and drinks or perusing the latest art exhibit. Could a condo be a good fit? It's a definite possibility. Imagine working in downtown Columbus and living in a high rise condo with little or no upkeep and a beautiful view overlooking the city. Check out here Homeownership comes with its share of time intensive responsibilities. Lawns need up keeping. Repairs need made. A condo can give you the location you desire without all the extra maintenance you'd find with a single-family home. That means extra time for the things that really matter to you! Condos, while low maintenance, however, can also have their downsides. You will share walls, common areas, and amenities with neighbors. If you are an extremely private person, then condo living may not be for you. Do you prefer a more isolated setting? Many people love the idea of country life. Just keep in mind that the further you are from people, the further you are from grocery stores, hospitals, and restaurants. A suburban lifestyle has gained popularity over the last 20 years. Columbus and area cities expanded to welcome their growing populations that wanted, and could afford, newer homes with their own nearby shopping centers. School systems can be very good and most areas boast lovely street designs thanks to urban planning. The real key is to decide what
lifestyle is best for you and your family. Once you've decided this,
you'll be able to zero on the best location. Next, be sure to
consider more than just the price tag of a home. Consider upkeep
costs, area taxes, needed repairs, and even future salability. Do
your due diligence and you're sure to make the right choice! |
