               Home tips from Joe Kendall, Realtor with Sandals Realty ! Wooded Floors, Let Them Shine !

I happen to run into a few  agents at the local coffee shop last week and we started talking shop so you would say, one Realtor stated to me about  they have a couple homes they are trying to sell with wood floors. She told me they just always look dusty or dull looking. I told her, what I do to bring out the luster was to use Old English Furniture polish and a dust mop! 

The polish covers up the scratches in the floors well and also provides a luster to the wooden floors. it's great to do before an open house ! I received a call from one of the agents yesterday and she told me thanks for the tip she could not believe the difference in the appearance of the floors,"it's like there a mirror " and it really raised the presentation of each room. Give it a try!

Southwest Florida Home Buyers Tax Credit Law Extended and Improved for more people !

  

I just want to try and explain the new changes in the First Time Home Buyers Credit Program. The program has been extended and some new improvements have been added to help more people in purchasing a new home and many others trying to buy a Second Home / vacation property 

Here are the guidelines of the program

First-Time Home buyers (FTHBs): First-time home buyers (that is, people who have not owned a home within the last three years) may be eligible for the tax credit. The credit for FTHBs is 10% of the purchase price of the home, with a maximum available credit of $8,000.

Single taxpayers and married couples filing a joint return may qualify for the full tax credit amount.

Current Owners: The tax credit program now gives those who already own a residence some additional reasons to move to a new home. This incentive comes in the form of a tax credit of up to $6,500 for qualified purchasers who have owned and occupied a primary residence for a period of five consecutive years during the last eight years.

Single taxpayers and married couples filing a joint return may qualify for the full tax credit amount.

What are the New Deadlines?

In order to qualify for the credit, all contracts need to be in effect no later than April 30, 2010 and close no later than June 30, 2010.

Tax Credit Versus Tax Deduction

It’s important to remember that the tax credit is just that… a tax credit. The benefit of a tax credit is that it’s a dollar-for-dollar tax reduction, rather than a reduction in a tax liability that would only save you $1,000 to $1,500 when all was said and done. So, if a first-time home buyer were to owe $8,000 in income taxes and would qualify for a tax credit of $8,000, she would owe nothing.

Better still, the tax credit is refundable, which means the home buyer can receive a check for the credit if he or she has little income tax liability. For example, if a first-time home buyer is eligible for a tax credit of $8,000 but is liable for $4,000 in income tax, she can still receive a check for the remaining $4,000!

Higher Income Caps

The amount of income someone can earn and qualify for the full amount of the credit has been increased.

Single tax filers who earn up to $125,000 are eligible for the total credit amount. Those who earn more than this cap can receive a partial credit. However, single filers who earn $145,000 and above are ineligible

Joint filers who earn up to $225,000 are eligible for the total credit amount. Those who earn more than this cap can receive a partial credit. However, joint filers who earn $245,000 and above are ineligible.

Maximum Purchase Price

Qualifying buyers may purchase a property with a maximum sale price of $800,000.

I hope this helps you have a better under standing of the program.

Cape Coral & Fort Myers Florida home owners. Thinking about avoiding foreclosure? Thinking should I just walk away? Are you asking yourself this question to yourself over and over? Do I  let my home go back to the bank? Deed of Lieu of Foreclosure? or do I do a bank short sale? Let me help you with this questions.

 You are not alone, many people find themselves in this same situation. Before you make a choice you might regret, you should sit down with your account, a Realtor experienced in short sales and talk to a real estate attorney about your personal situation.You should get sound advice before you make a decision on your home and your personal future. Even if you walk away, the bank could still do a judgement againist you for the whole amount you owe,wheather they would do that, no one knows but the laws make it possible for them to do so.

These homes have been closed, they have been SOLD! Yes I do Close Bank Short Sales! 

      

 Approved Short Sale         Approved Short Sale           Approved Short Sale          Approved Short Sale

     Countrywide                     Wellsfargo                        Chase Bank                    Countrywide

Sold! Sold sold!           Sold, Sold, Sold                 Sold, Sold  Sold ,            Sold, Sold Sold, Sold

You can avoid foreclosure and letting your home go back to the bank by doing a Bank Approved Short Sale. You should first try and see what kind of arrangements you can make with your bank or mortgage company in reworking your home loan so you can keep and stay in your home. If you have no luck coming to an agreement with your bank, then by all means, please give me a call if you have questions regarding the bank short sale process.

I will help you with understanding the following :

(1) "How  we will Sell Your Home as a Bank Short Sale"

(2) "Working with You and Your lender on their required documents" (Your Not Alone ! ) 

(3) "What happens when we get an offer "

(4) " The Closing and the Release of your mortgage "

(5) " Geting your Credit Scoreback on track "  

I look forward to talking with you.
