Should Home Buyers Make a Request for Repair?
2009-09-11 07:00:00 A deal killer in many home buying transactions is when buyers make a request for repair. Helping buyers make sense out of a home inspection is part of the invaluable service a real estate agent can provide. Yet few new agents know what a polarized receptacle is much less how to interpret a home inspection report. This means agents who have completed a few hundred home inspections are going to be far more valuable to a buyer than a new agent. Agents are not home inspectors, though, and cannot explain a home inspection report. Thats the job of the home inspector. Agents can, however, help guide buyers to make the right decisions. Left alone, many buyers freak out over home inspections. They will gasp, The door between the kitchen and garage is not fireproof were all gonna die. This is where experienced agents can help to bring buyers back to earth and refer them to specialists who are trained to explain building code and its rationale . . . read more about a Request for ...

UK Realty Developers trying to woo Indian Buyers
2008-08-21 07:02:00 The property agents of UK are targeting an estimated 1.25 lakh Indian dollar millionaires, who might invest nearly $30 billion (Rs 1.2 lakh crore) over the next decade in London. Home prices in the UK have fallen due to the loan crisis and it is anticipated that rich Indians could stabilize the market. Some agents like Berkley Homes are flying in senior executives to make direct contacts with would-be buyers in India to woo them to London, particularly to addresses like Knightsbridge and Kensington or places like Hampstead and St. John?s Wood, which have an abundance of Indians. "With relaxed rules in India and the burgeoning economy, middle class in India is now showing keen interest in buying properties here. Over 100 enquiries have come in, in the last few months.

Hope for Zero Down Home Buyers
2008-08-06 20:02:00 Lately I've been speaking to a few real estate buyers that have the willingnesss to buy but do not have the down payment. Today, it is impossible to buy a house without 3% down. While lenders are quick to follow this up with "it can be a gift," most people that would like to buy a house don't have relatives who can gift them approximately $9,000.Here's the good news: I recently heard about the USDA Rural Access Program. This is a new 100% financing program you can use to finance the purchase of a house in rural areas. Most areas in El Dorado and east of El Dorado may qualify. If you are considering buying a home and don't have money down, you might want to consider El Dorado county. Call me for details!

France set to attract British second home buyers
2008-06-05 02:00:00 France has been tipped to be a hotspot of activity for British property buyers next year by industry analysts. ShelterOffshore.com believes many budget airlines will be forced to hike up the cost of flying overseas next year in response to rising fuel prices. This means that consumers may find travelling to other countries very expensive, a development which could reduce the appeal of these places to second home buyers. However, the website added that financial problems such as the global credit crisis are not putting people investing in a foreign property. Therefore, it believes France could be a highly popular destination in 2009, as it can be easily reached by other modes of transport. ShelterOffshore.com said: "France is on our doorstep and it is a country we can fly to, drive to or even take a train to." This comes after Virgin Trains revealed that "more and more" people are choosing to use the railway as a means of getting to destinations they might p...
