To sell alone, or not to sell alone?..THAT is the question!
FSBO vs. Realtors®
Not too long ago, in a not so
distant land, people who were in need of selling their home hardly considered
doing so without that services of a Realtor®. It’s hard to believe, right? Back
then, prices were constant and real estate agent commissions were not as
outrageous as they can be nowadays. In today’s market For-Sale-By-Owner (FSBO)
listings are increasing. I would advise you to weigh ALL of your options
though.
So you want to sell your house? You
go to your local Home Depot, Lowe’s, or Wal-Mart and grab you a nice FOR SALE
sign. As you drive the stake into your front yard, you are feeling a sense of accomplishment;
you put an ad in your local newspaper, sit back and let the “magic” happen,
right? Wrong! True the majority of home
sales are made by word-of-mouth, passer-bys, local ads and such, but the truth
of the matter is your home is not equivalent to your ’57 Chevy sitting in a
vacant lot awaiting a collector of old cars to come along and show interest in
it. In fact, before even purchasing “FOR
SALE” signs a seller should be knowledgeable of
the trends in the local real estate market in hopes to set competitive prices
for their home. In addition to knowing the trends you have to also be familiar
with local and state laws, disclosures, closing points, statutes regarding
assessments, and title requirements. There are a lot of local resources such as
your local building commission and title offices, local web sites that list
FSBOs, and even some how-to books and manuals from your local library.
The real deciding factor on whether
to list as a FSBO or get a Realtor® to assist in the process could very well be
based on time vs money. With a Realtor®, you can be assured that your required
paperwork is properly filed, assessments and inspections are scheduled, and
that your property is properly marketed within your local Multi-listing Service
(MLS). An agent can also take the guesswork and hassle out of negotiating closing
costs, although the average for an agent commission is 4%-8%. Depending on the
price your property is sold for this can be around $8,000 or more (for a
$200,000 property).
I would strongly suggest using a Realtor®,
(not just because I am one! J)
but for the fact that Realtors® can speed the process up due to our knowledge
of handling loan and governmental bureaucracies. When looking for the “right”
agent, a seller should look for someone who has a nice history and leads in closings within their real
estate office, someone who is readily equipped with a list of neighborhood that
they have sold, and someone who has a list of clients that would highly
recommend them.
I hope this article made some impact in your decision to
choose a Realtor® or do a FSBO.
Feel free to contact me with any questions regarding Selling your home or with any real estate matter! I will be more than happy to assist
you in your decision, no matter what route you choose to go!

Buying A Home: A getting Started Guide
Do you currently rent your home?
Maybe you have thought about buying a home and you feel as if you are just
throwing your money away on rent. It’s time to get a place to call you own,
home! But of course, you have a few reservations about purchasing a new home.
Sure you have questions and may be
a bit nervous, those are all normal feelings after all this is an important
financial decision in your life. But being educated on the home buying process
will empower you to overcome those first-time home buyer jitters.
Is buying a home is the right thing
for you?
Many people are petrified of buying
a home, and some of those fears are justified. As a real estate agent I hate to
admit it, however, owning a home is not a perfect fit for everyone. There are
some factors to keep in mind when making the decision to rent or buy.
Renting vs. Buying – Things to consider:
Bad Credit
Ø
If your credit report is less than 620, it is a
good chance that you will not receive a good rate for a loan and could
potentially put you in the hands of lenders that do not have your best interest
at heart.
Ø
If you decide to pursue buying a home with bad
credit, I would advise trying to raise it prior to applying for a loan.
Ø
Did you know that four (4) late payments is all
it takes to make you ineligible from getting a loan?! You can order a copy of your free credit
report online.
High Debt Ratios
Ø
When getting a loan lenders look at two ratios:
front-end and back-end. Your mortgage
payment (including taxes and insurance divided by your monthly salary) is
considered the front-end. The back-end factors in your monthly debt to your
PITI payment before dividing the total for your salary. If after your
calculations your debt ratio is 50% or higher you may not qualify for a loan.
ANY lender willing to fund such a loan is NOT who you would want because you
will be paying too much.
Job Instability or Relocation
Ø
How stable is your job? In 6 months, 1 year, or
more will you be able to support the payments required by your loan? Things to
look at in relation to your job is; Is your company laying people off? Could
you be fired? Remember that unemployment is usually not sufficient enough to
support a mortgage payment.
Ø
In relation to relocation, is it possible that
you may be relocating in a few years? Military members should think about this
prior to buying. Is this a city/town/state that you want to reside in after
retirement? Are you willing to rent out your house in the event of a PCS
move? If you did purchase and had to
relocate more than likely you would have to sell. When buying a house, the
intent should be to at least stay for a while.
Pulling Maintenance
Ø
Every house requires upkeep, but not everyone is
handy enough to tackle all the home repair projects that may but may also not
have the means to support a professional to correct the issues. A good thing to
keep in mind is to set aside at least 5% of the purchase price to cover any
upkeep/maintenance issues that may arise when you purchase your home.
So to sum everything up, prior to getting
geared up to purchase your first home you should line up your finances, put
aside a down payment and do some research on the loan programs that are
available for you. By researching and doing your homework you will be able to
estimate how much you can afford and how much it will cost you.
Good luck on your home search
pursuit!
