America’s Best Places To Raise A Family do you live in one?

Dan Mullarkey (West USA Realty) — Tue, 13 Dec 2011 12:00:11 -0800

Great article Mark, it's a shame Arizona didn't make the list. Being a Phoenix native, I am obviously a bit partial to Arizona...if you'd like to see why Arizona is so great, please call me.

Via Mark Taylor FHA VA USDA HUD & Investor Loans (First Time Buyers Investors and move up buyers):

America’s Best Places To Raise A Family, Listed By State do you live in one?

BusinessWeek recently released its 2011 America’s Best Place to Raise a Family rankings. College-town Blacksburg, Virginia took top honors, breaking a 2-year win streak for the Chicago, Illinois region.

In 2009, suburban Mount Prospect, Illinois placed first. Last year, it was Tinley Park, Illinois.

The BusinessWeek report employs data from real estate information firm Onboard Informatics to make its rankings, compiling data across categories such as education, crime, and jobs plus access to parks and affordable homes. All selections are limited by population; all selections are home to 50,000 residents or fewer. Median incomes are within 20 percent — plus or minus — of the state’s median income levels.

BusinessWeek names one winner in each state. The winners in the 10 most populous states and their nearest “big city” are listed below

California : East San Gabriel (Los Angeles)

Texas : Wells Branch (Austin)

New York : Hampton Manor (Albany)

Florida : Niceville (Fort Walton Beach)

Illinois : Morton Grove (Chicago)

Pennsylvania : Cecil-Bishop (Pittsburgh)

Ohio : St. Henry (Dayton)

Michigan : Spring Arbor (Jackson)

Georgia : Hoschton (Atlanta)

North Carolina : Tryon (Spartanburg, SC)

The winners in all 50 states can be found on the BusinessWeek website.

Rankings like the BusinessWeek America’s Best Place to Raise a Family can be useful for home buyers in Scottsdale , but like everything in real estate, statistics do not apply to every home equally. Even within the “best towns”, there are areas in which school systems are better, crime figures are lower, and amenities are more plentiful.

Therefore, before you make the decision to buy a home, talk with a real estate agent who has local market knowledge. It’s the most effective means to get data that matters to you. And if you ar ereading this and don't have one I belong to a great network in ActiveRain and would be happy to refer a Realtor® to you.

Investing in Arizona Real Estate: Flip or Hold, which is best?

Dan Mullarkey (West USA Realty) — Fri, 02 Dec 2011 01:30:51 -0800

These are the two most common ways to make a profit in residential real estate. We are experienced Investor Agents and have a great track record of assisting our clients with both of these strategies. Currently our market is geared towards a “buy and hold” cash flow strategy with the inventory levels being at such a low level, and rents still increasing. Here’s a general summary of the advantages and disadvantages of each investment method:

A few advantages of a property flip in Arizona are as follows:

1) Profit is quick and liquid. Property management is removed from the equation making this an attractive option for an investor looking to “make a profit and move on to the next deal”.

2) Flipping can be more exciting and interesting for certain investors. Generally the risk is a bit higher, but so are the rewards.

3) Flip properties can be easier to find in the right market. Look for a high demand area (TIP: I recommend a “move up” neighborhood as first time buyer areas tend to generate a smaller profit margin), then focus on the homes that need the most renovation. Homes with “good bones” generally need more of just a cosmetic fix up and have key elements that buyers want.

Some disadvantages to a flip property in Arizona are:

1) Flipping properties in Arizona is not a “one shot” approach, meaning that successful Arizona real estate investors do not retire on one sale…this is a game in which you must keep moving properties. Not every home will be a winner, and successful property flippers are set up to manage the loser properties, as they will come up from time to time. We try to manage as much risk as possible, but obtaining these types of homes means quick decisions, and not every potential issue can always be accounted for.

2) Taxes are higher when you sell a flip property. The profit you receive will be taxed as ordinary income which could be as high as 40% of your profit.

Some advantages of holding a cash flow investment property in Arizona are:

1) Positive cash flow is abundant in our market currently. Most of our investors average about a 10% return AFTER expenses. Not only are many of these homes being bought at less than half of their value several years back, but many require little renovation to get them rent ready (we use a strategy called Perfect 10’s).

2) Good renters are abundant. Many people lost their homes during our real estate crash and MUST be more diligent in their current situation. Evictions are rare, and we have a great track record of finding good, quality tenants for our clients.

3) Arizona has landlord/tenant laws that are set up in favor of the property owner. If a landlord ever needs to evict a tenant, the process is generally quick and decisive.

4) Foreign investors have an even greater advantage with cash flow properties in Arizona. With the decline of the US Dollar, not only are they obtaining cheap properties with great returns, but they are also making a profit from the currency exchange alone. There may never be a better time for foreign investors to purchase cash flow properties in Arizona.

5) Cash flow is readily available in our current Arizona real estate market, and does not take years to generate as it did before. Also, consult your CPA about tax advantages of depreciating your Arizona cash flow investment property.

The main disadvantage with cash flow properties is generally the return takes longer than with a flip, and requires more long term attention. Still, getting a solid 10% return on a tangible asset, in a market that appears to be making a turn for the better is a pretty attractive option for the savvy Arizona real estate investor. If you are looking for a solid 3-5 year investment, Arizona cash flow properties are worth investigating. Let us show you how our Arizona cash flow real estate investors are putting their money to work for them, both in the single family and condo markets alike. The Arizona real estate market is going through some changes, and these opportunities may not be as attractive as they are currently for much longer.

Buying a REO (Bank Owned Property)

Dan Mullarkey (West USA Realty) — Wed, 10 Dec 2008 17:24:18 -0800

An overview of the process and what to expect as a buyer

By Dan Mullarkey, Associate Broker with West USA Realty

So, you're in the market for a home and you've heard the buzz about the tremendous deals available on REOs. First off, you're asking yourself what is the heck is an REO? This is a term that you will hear often when discussing foreclosures and the next section will explain what this term means.

REO is an acronym meaning "Real Estate Owned", a shorthand term for a foreclosed property. This is a property that was previously mortgaged and has reverted back to the bank after an unsuccessful foreclosure auction. REO is not a term that banks want to see on their books because after all, they are in the business of lending money for homes, not managing them.

Many of these properties do not sell at an auction for several reasons. First, the property usually does not have any equity to satisfy the loans and liens, as many homes bought over the past few years have negative equity. Most foreclosures do not even receive a bid because the minimum bid includes the loan balance, attorney fees, any accrued interest and all costs associated with the foreclosure process. To even bid on these properties, you need a cashier's check in hand, ready to go, for the full amount of your bid. If you are the winning bidder, you receive the property in complete "as-is" condition-meaning someone could be still living in the home, other outstanding liens against the property, and possible structural or environmental issues with the home that could cause enormous problems for you later.

Since in today's market most people who purchased in the last few years are upside down in their homes, very few of these auctions are successful. After all, if the owner had equity in the home, they would have sold it versus foreclosing. If the auction is unsuccessful, then the property reverts back to the bank. It is now referred to as a REO, and the bank wants it gone ASAP.

Now It's an REO, What's Next?

So now the bank owns the property and the previous mortgage loan is gone. Next issue is, "How does the bank sell their REOs?" Most banks hire an outside company, called a Default or Asset Management Company to handle the sale of the property. These companies usually take a percentage of the commission that they give to a local real estate broker or agent to sell the property. That broker in turn offers the buyer's agent a portion of the sale, same as any other real estate transaction. The Default Management Company employs asset managers who may manage several hundred properties at once, in many different states. The local REO agent is their eyes and ears to the sales process and has many duties to make sure that the property is in saleable condition and being marketed aggressively.

The listing agent is in charge of arranging cleanup and even eviction if the former owner or a tenant is still occupying the property. After the home is vacant and cleaned up, the agent turns in their BPO (Broker's Price Opinion) which is similar to an appraisal but completed by a Realtor to give the bank an idea of what the home will sell for. Finally, the home is listed on the local MLS and ready for offers.

Offer Received!

Once an offer is received, the bank may take several days to respond. It is customary with some banks to always counter the offer, even if received at full price---this practice is diminishing though as in many areas banks are competing with other REOs and becoming more motivated to sell. As a general rule of thumb, the longer the home has been on MLS, the more motivated the bank is to sell it at lower than list price. If more than one offer is received, the bank may request a "Highest & Best" from all parties- meaning that each buyer has 24 hours to submit their best offer, not knowing where the other offers stand. This is difficult situation for buyers and another reason to be working with an experienced REO agent to help advise you on how to proceed.

Offer Accepted!

Okay, so the bank has accepted your offer and now it's time to order inspections, right? Well, it might take a few days to get the contract signed by the bank, even after you have an acceptance. During this time, they usually have a policy where they can still look at and accept other offers. So again, make sure your Realtor is working to get the contract signed ASAP, otherwise you could still lose out on the home. The bank will most likely have their own addendum to the purchase contract which supersedes the contract you submitted, SO READ IT CAREFULLY!!! They may change terms such as: length of inspection period, contingencies, per diem charges if buyer does not close on time, seller performance, seller concessions and various other items. The main purpose of the addendum though is to release the seller from any liabilities and warranties of the home since they have never occupied it. When buying from a traditional seller, the buyer is given a disclosure statement-with REO you will never see one.

Inspect, Inspect, Inspect!!!

I ALWAYS recommend getting a professional home inspection, no matter the age or condition of the property. This can be even more important with REO as items not seen with the naked eye may be huge problems in the future. Remember, you are not limited to just a general home inspection...you can use a roof inspector, HVAC specialist, plumber; whoever you feel will give you the best advice for the specific mechanics of the home. Home inspectors are not roofers or HVAC specialists, so their scope can be limited on some items. Get the inspections done early and quickly as time is of the essence, some banks limit the inspection period to 5 or 7 days.

As-Is, or Is It?

True, REO is sold As-Is at the time of purchase unless noted otherwise. But what if the A/C is inoperative or a leaky roof is discovered? Many banks will fix the mechanics of the home to qualify it for financing, especially now with FHA being used so often.

What if you have a laundry list of issues that are discovered that were unknown at the time of contract? Depending on the demand for the home and the length of time it has been listed, some banks will either make additional repairs or credit the buyer for repairs. Again, this is where an experienced REO agent comes in handy. They can truly save you money and negotiate with the bank to make the home acceptable to you. After all, the parties involved in the transaction want to see it close just like any other home, and you as the buyer may have more leverage than you think.

Loan Docs Are In, Ready To Close

After the bank has made any necessary repairs (the appraiser may need to visit the home again to confirm), the closing process is pretty much the same as any other home. Escrow length is typically 30-45 days but can be quicker depending on the buyer---I've closed cash deals in under a week and financing in less than 3 weeks. The seller usually signs the closing docs fairly quickly. Once the buyer's loan funds and records, the home is yours! Now it's time to get moving and go enjoy your new home!

A few things to remember about REO:

•1) Contrary to late night infomercials, they are not sold for pennies but are usually priced aggressively for a quick sale and can be a great bargain.

•2) It may take some time to get an acceptance, so patience is a virtue.

•3) Working with an experienced REO buyer agent does not cost the buyer and can save time, headaches and money.

•4) Fully inspect the property as they are typically sold As-Is.

•5) Many REO listing agents deal in volume and may have hundreds of properties listed. Their interests lie in selling as many REOs as quickly as possible so working in the buyer's interest is not a priority---one more reason to use a REO buyer agent.

REOs can be a tremendous value but there are many things to consider. Working with an experienced agent can help guide you through the potential pitfalls and is absolutely a vital asset when considering these types of properties.
