sell a home: FHA is the Loan of choice for most buyers....will your house qualify?? - 07/29/10 03:44 PM
 According to the article that I am pasting below FHA loans are the most popular choice in loans by buyers.  Due to banks tightening their pocketbook strings and making qualifying harder for buyers the FHA mortgages make for the most affordable option available. 
However, not all homes qualify for FHA financing.
FHA has rather strict conditional requirements on a property.  Will yours pass the test??? Let's see:
The home cannot have any chipped or pealing paint (especially on the outside) None of the windows can have any broken glass All the flooring must be intact (no tiles missing, or carpets worn to … (0 comments)

sell a home: Is a distressed property the right deal for you? - 06/01/10 02:06 PM
Is a distressed property the right deal for you?
With the first-time homebuyer tax credit deadline having come and gone, you may be asking yourself, "What now?" Fortunately, the door is now open to a new wave of savings: distressed properties.
 For many buyers, the term foreclosure brings up images of run-down homes with no heat and rotting wood. While this is still the case for some homes, it's no longer the standard. In fact, first time buyers are snatching up distressed deals in decent condition for great prices. 
According to a November 2009 Keller Williams Research Buying Distressed Properties … (2 comments)
