I had a very nice lady ask me to help her buy a small house in the suburbs...$200,000 - $225,000. (Which is a little below what average is, but doable)She looks at 8 houses over a two week period. She writes an offer and it is accepted. Her *boyfriend* is with her for the inspection. I have never heard her talk about a *boyfriend* before. That's okay, I don't know everything. She is approved for

With lots of competition in the market for buyers, a well maintained outside can be just the thing to get the shopper inside. If the inside is great but the outside isn't, one riding

So I found this statement below on an "Amazing Facts" website.  And we thought the downpayments of today were painful!!!  Do you think this is fact or simply a myth??AMAZING FACT:  Centuries ago, purchasing real estate often required having one or more limbs amputated in order to prevent the purchaser from running away to avoid repayment of the loan. Hence an expensive purchase was said to cost "

You're not crazy and neither am I. You've read and heard it's a buyer's market. Then it must be true, right? If you've got better than average credit or cash you need to "put somewhere" so Uncle Sam doesn't get it, NOW is the time to buy real estate. Real Property values are whatever someone is willing to pay at that particular time for that particular property. So we all research, compare, and

Seller desperation has become all to common as the market slows and sellers want to know what makes the homes that are selling capture the buyer eye. It really is a simple analogy, but one that will take some work and gritting of teeth possibly to implement for your own listing.Imagine that you sit down at a table with 500 Cheeseburgers staring back at your utter hunger taunting your every move
