first time home buyer: First Time Home Buyers You Will Succeed With Realistic Goals - 11/16/09 07:09 PM
If you are a first time buyer here are some tips to avoid the disappointment you feel when you don't get the house you want.. As I discussed in a previous post, you must get pre-approved so you know absolutely what you can afford. Fresh inventory of homes is low, and if a new listing comes on the market, if priced right, it is going to go into multiples and over asking. If you like it, then you can be sure there will be other buyers who feel the same. This is where you need to strategize. If you are putting … (13 comments)

first time home buyer: First time Home Buyers - The Process Made Simple - 11/15/09 10:51 PM
First time home buyers, this is what you need to know about the home purchase process: The very first thing you need to do is find out how much home you can afford. Find a lender, or ask your realtor to recommend one and get pre-approved. The reason for this is twofold: Firstly, in Los Angeles you are not going to be able to make an offer without a letter from a lender verifying that you are able to afford the house and make the payments. Secondly, you will find out how much house you can buy. There is no … (8 comments)

first time home buyer: With a Developer's Contract Get Legal Advice - 11/07/09 12:03 AM
I discussed the contract my first-time buyer is faced with while considering the purchase of a condo in a brand-new 5-unit development in Echo Park. The contract looked daunting on the surface, but I thought, reading through and using my knowledge of the real estate transaction would go much of the way towards ensuring that my buyer would be protected. Wrong!There is no way any of us who are not attorneys should be attempting to decipher a developer's own contract. There is way too much to look out for, at least in California.I mentioned a few points points in my previous … (18 comments)

first time home buyer: After Making an Offer, Don't be Afraid to Make that Backup Offer if it is Not the Winning Offer - 10/28/09 07:01 PM
Since I poured water on my poor laptop and it is in intensive care in hospital, I am typing on my Dell Mini Inspiron netbook, so I have to type small.Oops, that's better, I stretched it a bit.And now for something completely different.I thought I would encourage first-time buyers to always make a back-up offer on the house they love.Don't be afraid to make that first offer. It is an excellent opportunity to get your feet wet. And is something like learning to ride a bicyle. As you go along you feel more and more comfortable, and you never forget! And … (10 comments)

first time home buyer: First-time Home Buyers Don't Be Afraid To Make An Offer - 10/25/09 09:13 PM
First-time home buyers, don't be afraid to make an offer. If nothing else you are getting practice.I was referred two buyers about ten days ago from clients with whom I just closed a purchase about three months ago. Their budget is around $325,000 which is nothing for the Los Angeles area, certainly in terms of a house, and a condo is not going to be in the most desirable area at anywhere near that price.I sent a bunch of listings, in various more affordable areas, most of which were condos. Then, suprise surprise, a house came on the market at $318,000, in … (13 comments)
