BEWARE of the Seller's Property Disclosure!! This includes YOU! - 04/20/11 03:59 PM
Yes, beware of the Seller's Property Disclosure - there may be more than what is actually stated. I am living proof of that fact. Being a real estate agent, I should have known better.
Here is my living proof:
J) Do you know of any current flooding, drainage, settling or grading or erosion problems affecting the property? answer by seller: Yes. 
Please describe:
When heavy rains, the pond overflows.

What the Heck? - 04/18/11 05:54 PM
That's right ... What the heck?
I am reading a quote from the Bank of America CEO claiming that "...some people shouldn't be thinking of their home as an asset" ???  which is coming from an article I just finished reading. Again, I say, What the Heck?
Perhaps someone in the financial field would not consider a home an "asset" if there is a mortgage against it, but many home owners have "equity" and when is "equity in a home" NOT an asset?

How to screw up your mortgage application process - 04/08/11 11:29 AM
Randy Harden of Wieder Realty, Pompano Beach Fl posted tips that buyers need to understand and take warning - that I have asked permission to share on my blog.
