Alimony Reform Requests Increasing - 03/26/12 02:36 PM
Alimony Reform Requests Increasing from Seniors

Many seniors who were divorced decades ago are still required to make high alimony payments. Sometimes, that means they can't afford to retire or that they can't afford to pay for a good nursing home if they have a physical or mental illness.
Many states are reexamining their alimony laws. Last fall, Massachusetts passed a new law that creates different types of alimony with varying durations. It depends on the length of marriage and the finances of each spouse.
The law allows those paying alimony to modify their terms later and calls for … (2 comments)

Why you want buyer representation when buying a new home - 03/26/12 04:13 AM
Realtors often mention the importance of buyers having representation even when purchasing a new home directly from the builder.  The truth is that it will not cost you more, and very often can actually cost you less.  While this doesn’t seem intuitive, it is a fact.  Robert Twaron from San Antonio, TX writes this excellent post about this subject.

Going into a short sale can be filled with uncertainties.  But, it doesn’t have to be that difficult.  If your agent is knowledgeable about short sales and he/she does the proper homework prior to making an offer, most of the uncertainty can be eliminated.  While there are no guarantees in short sale contracts, the odds can be put into your favor with the proper representation.

Doug Rogers brings up an excellent point that sellers should absolutely read.  If you know about a defect in your home and don’t disclose it, it can definitely come back and cost you.  You may think the new buyer won’t find out that you knew about it, but if you told a neighbor and/or had a repairman out in the past, the knowledge is out there for them to find out and get back to you even after the sale has long been completed.

It's a Loan Officer, Not a Serial Killer! - 03/12/12 04:31 AM
Eric Michael of Livonia, MI writes this great post about why any good Realtor will ask prospective clients and customers to be pre-qualified prior to looking for homes.  It's just a waste of time for every one involved and quite a disappointment for want to be home owners to find out that they can't afford (or qualify) for that home they really want.

How Important Is It To Stage a Room That No One Really Wants? - 03/05/12 03:52 AM
Kathy Streib is a Home Stager from Delray Beach, FL.  She asks an interesting question in this post.  I've seen lots of living rooms that were set up as pool halls, nurseries, eve offices.  More often than not, I feel that if they were attractively staged back to their original purpose, the home usually showed much better, thus making it more attractive to prospective buyers.

STOP PAYING YOUR MORTGAGE? – FANNIE MAE SAYS YES! - 03/05/12 03:52 AM
