real estate: Help for Ft. Hood area Home Owners - US DOD HAP Program - 05/05/11 05:23 PM
I've been getting a lot of questions lately about the HAP program. There's a lot of talk floating around about it, and sellers are are wondering if they even qualify for any of the program benefits.
The Home Owners Assistance Program may be of help to certain Ft. Hood home owners who need to sell and need some financial assistance to do so, but figuring out of you qualify for help takes a bit of analysis.
One of the best features of HAP is that it is NOT a short sale, and it does not affect your VA loan eligibility nor your credit report!

real estate: Fort Hood House Hunting - Port-A-John, Anyone? - 10/25/08 03:57 PM
If you are a first time buyer, getting ready to start looking for a home at Fort Hood, here's a quick peek into a real house hunt in the Fort Hood Real Estate Market:
My latest buyer already had a target subdivision and price range in mind when we met for our first consultation. He and his wife are first time buyers and are looking for a home that is close to Fort Hood and close to her work in Killeen. They also want their children to attend Copperas Cove schools, so it's been pretty easy to narrow down their choices.
They've been … (0 comments)

real estate: 5 Great Tips for Negotiating with a New Home Builder at Fort Hood - 09/29/08 03:26 PM
The Fort Hood Real Estate Market has slowed and builders are starting to see their inventories of unsold homes increase. And that's a GOOD thing for you if you are thinking of buying a brand new home when you get to Fort Hood.
Before you go out to make an offer on a new construction home, consider this: Did you know that every new home has a backstory? You aren't privy to this information (and neither am I), but the builder has a lot to consider, especially if he borrowed money to build the home. He's committed to making monthly interest … (0 comments)

real estate: One Important Issue First Time Home Buyers Should Know About - 08/28/08 12:09 PM
A lot of you may not be aware that the new Housing Stimulus Legislation recently signed into law by President Bush will be a source of interest free funds to this year's First Time Home Buyers.
If you were, or will be, a first time buyer between April 9, 2008 and July 1, 2009, you may be entitled to a temporary $7500 tax credit. This means you can receive money from the government, interest free, to be paid back at $500 a year for 15 years, unless you sell the home.
When you sell your Fort Hood real estate, the balance … (1 comments)

real estate: Buyers are looking for Bargains in the Killeen Fort Hood Real Estate Market - 06/11/08 04:40 PM
With the ongoing real estate news being reported by CNN, MSNBC and FOX NEWS about the state of the real estate market, buyers are arriving at Fort Hood with high expectations of getting a real bargain.
According to the news outlets, there SHOULD be huge numbers of stressed sellers at Fort Hood who will accept any offer you throw at them! There SHOULD be street after street of foreclosed properties that lenders are letting go for a song! Builders SHOULD be dumping new construction at a fraction of market value in order to survive!
Wow, if all that were true, I'd be out investing … (0 comments)

real estate: Why in the World Would You Buy A House at Fort Hood? - 04/18/08 09:45 AM
Credit Crisis! Falling Prices!! Foreclosures!! Why in the world are you even thinking about buying a house right now when you relocate to Fort Hood?
Maybe because you are sly like a fox?
Credit Crisis? This is a GOOD thing for you if you are buying right now. It means that you can be confident that your lender is going to be CONSERVATIVE and won't shoehorn you into some kind of weird subprime loan to get you into a home. If you get turned down for a loan, that is GOOD. It means you are NOT ready to buy and should encourage you to work on … (2 comments)

real estate: OK Mr. or Ms Fort Hood Buyer: What's it Gonna Take to get your Business Today? - 02/19/08 06:19 PM
Wow, what an obnoxious headline!
And why in the world am I even writing about it?
My husband and I usually work on weekends, but last weekend we sneaked off to go to the beautiful Austin Convention Center to the spring RV Show. We've become real outdoor types the past few years and have finally indulged and bought a fifth wheel and are really enjoying the time with the family and the dogs, even if it's just a quick camping trip.
Anyway, back to the reason for this post. As we were walking through literally hundreds of shiny, clean RVs (no dog hair, wet … (0 comments)

real estate: Fort Hood Real Estate Market Could Show Staying Power in 2008 - 01/28/08 08:30 PM
Gloom and doom, gloom and doom in the real estate market. It's getting a little redundant out there in the news, isn't it? OF COURSE the real estate market is down. REALLY DOWN in some parts of the country.
I know the negative news is wearing thin on both consumers and real estate professional. There's got to be some positive news out there SOMEWHERE, right?
The Fort Hood area real estate market was off about 10% last year. That's a statistical fact. But that was still a GREAT year for real estate. The outlook for 2008 shows that builders are still building, buyers are still buying.

real estate: The Truth About Negotiations with Sellers of Fort Hood Real Estate - 01/23/08 08:19 PM
A Fort Hood area Buyer Agent called me the other day after we had completed negotiations on one of my listings. She was feeling a little down, saying she felt like she hadn't represented her clients well in negotiations because they didn't get the seller to give them much in the way of concessions.
I understand exactly what she means. I've been on the other side, negotiating for my buyers, and come away with less than we wanted. Sometimes you feel like you went ten rounds in the ring and lost.
Most realtors are "people pleasers" and get into this business because they like … (2 comments)

real estate: Fort Hood Real Estate - Local Statistics For Future Home Buyers - 01/07/08 05:32 PM
Listen Up, Ya'll!
Here is it, straight from the horse's mouth! Year end numbers are finally tallied, and according to the Fort Hood Association of Realtors, home prices rose about 5% over 2006, while the number of homes sold last year is down about 10.73%.
Does this mean the market for Fort Hood real estate is bad???? Are things about to spiral out of control into the depths of despair? Are the talking heads on TV going to ruin your dream of home ownership?
I think not! These changes were to be expected, given that the wild demand of the prior few years was … (1 comments)

real estate: Fort Hood Real Estate - It's a Buyers Market - 12/20/07 04:37 PM
YES! It is a buyer's market! BUT what exactly does that mean? We met a young man today who qualified to purchase a $95,000 home with his VA loan benefit, but he wanted to look at $200,000 homes, because "it's a buyer's market and they will come down to the price he needs".
Can we talk? I certainly admire him for his knowledge of the real estate market news that's IN THE NEWS on the TV, in the magazines, and the subject of much agony in certain parts of the country.
BUT HERE's THE REAL STORY: Real estate is a local phenomena. Yes, that's right! Just … (0 comments)
