| How Much? It
is important to know how much you can afford before you begin looking
at homes. You should talk with a lender and get pre-approved for a loan.
This puts you in a stronger negotiating position with a seller.
Home Inspection Once
you have found the home that is right for you, you may have some questions
about its structure and condition. A home inspector is the best place
to get answers. Most sellers allow time to have a property inspected after
an offer is accepted.
Buyer's Blues If
your initial euphoria deflates as you ask yourself, "What have I
gotten into?" Relax! These feelings are so common that they have
even been given a name--"Buyer's Remorse". It is almost always
temporary, but call us if you are having an extreme attack. We have experience
in helping our clients through the home buying jitters.

The Tax Implications Of Selling
Your House If you are selling your primary
residence, you do not have to worry about paying taxes on your profits
if your gain does not exceed $250,000 as a single taxpayer (or $500,000
as a married couple filing jointly). You are also free to roll from none
to all your gain into another home without further tax consequences.
"Listed" Homes Dominate Residential Sales Results The chances of selling your
home quickly for top dollar will improve considerably if you list it with
a real estate sales professional. Consider the fact that nine out of ten
homes sold today--more in some markets--are listed with a professional
Realtor. Listing your home places it on the local Multiple Listing Service
that is subscribed to by a majority of real estate sales professionals.
Through the residential MLS listing, your home is assured of getting the
widest possible exposure to the market place. |
