- 11/29/10 10:38 AM
Doubling Your Investment: Do Income-Generating Properties Pay? Buying or selling a house is one of the biggest decisions most people will ever make with their finances and their lifestyle. Getting the best bargain in the purchase or making the most profit on the sale give buyers and sellers so much to think about that many may never stop to consider keeping that old house - or buying another - as an income-generating property. But the rewards, in savings, profits and problem-solving, can be high. One option for buyers who otherwise might consider home prices beyond their reach is the property that … (0 comments)

Rooms for Improvement: The Joys and Challenges of Fixer-Uppers The house that needs work - it's not for everyone. But then, the secret of real estate success, for both a professional like me and a potential customer like yourself, is finding the one home that's right for you. And a fixer-upper even offers the opportunity to have your dream house not be found, but made. It's important to keep in mind the balance of challenges and chances that a fixer-upper presents. For buyers with cost as a concern, a house needing work will definitely be more affordable - though the discount … (0 comments)

- 11/19/10 03:45 AM
When a Home is Not a House: Condo Pros and Cons Many real estate watchers can remember when buying a condominium was most would-be homeowners' second choice. These properties were considered a half-way measure for people wishing to break out of renting but not quite able to obtain a house. Now, condos are not only seen as a smart step between the two stages, but are an increasingly sought-after option in their own right. It's not just that condos are an attractive intermediate move, though this is an important recent reality of homeownership. Since 2002, condo values have been appreciating faster … (0 comments)

- 11/18/10 02:47 AM
Paying It Forward: How Renters Become Buyers Nothing compares to the feeling of having a place to call home. At one time or another, however, most of us have felt frustration at seeing hard-earned money go into rent every month rather than a more permanent house payment. Renting is most people's first step toward homeownership, but what do you need to do to realize the dream of owning a home? Sometimes, it's not the regular rent-money obligations but other expenses that are the main obstacle in saving. A whole debt-counseling industry has arisen to guide consumers in getting out from under … (0 comments)

Empty Nests and Full Houses: Remodeling for Departing Kids and Returning Parents The American family is ever-changing, and its primary space, the home, has always changed with it. The present day is no exception: The largest segment of the American public, the baby boom generation, is entering retirement age in high numbers, and confronting "empty nests" when the kids go off to college or marry and move out permanently, presenting the challenge of what to do with the sudden extra space (since most "boomers" prefer to "age in place" rather than leave their long-time homes). There is also the perennial family … (0 comments)

The Healthy Home: Minimizing Household Health Risks Indoors is where Americans spend 90 percent of their lives - 25 percent at work and 65 percent at home, and the latter is increasing as home offices become more common. So it's important to take a look at how healthy the home environment is. Mold is one concern that has gotten a good deal of attention recently, involving possible problems with allergies, the brain and the circulatory system. Wherever there is a leak, condensation or flooding inside a house, causing housing material to stay damp for more than a few days, mold begins … (0 comments)

- 09/22/10 07:22 AM
Home buyers in Cincinnati often ask me what a 203k loan is and if it is appropriate for them. For the ambitious home buyer looking for upside potential, the short answer may be yes. A 203k loan is a type of FHA loan for home buyers that want to finance into the loan the extra money for home repairs. These loans are predominantly used for distressed homes like foreclosures and short sales; however they don't need to be limited to those homes. For example, if a home buyer wants to purchase a home but it needs some updating or maybe a … (2 comments)

- 09/22/10 07:13 AM
If you're planning on purchasing a home, here are four reasons to use a buyer's agent: 1) Legitimate Comparable Sales. A buyer's agent is someone that will provide a list of relevant comparable sales for the immediate area and provide guidance on what the maximum purchase price should be. A home buyer shouldn't simply rely on the appraisal of the property and assume whatever the home appraises for is what it is typically worth. The home buyer needs to know what other similar homes have recently sold for in the area and what the maximum amount is that they should be … (1 comments)

Home sellers know that selling in this market has been challenging to say the least. Though I see markets improving it is always a good idea to have a plan "B". There are many good reasons why people would like to sell their homes for example, so they can move up to a larger home, maybe to a different school system, or maybe they're ready to downsize the space but would like to have more bells and whistles. It is sometimes difficult, not to mention scary to pin down the new home without having the current home sold. That's where we come in! We're so sure at ERA REAL Solutions that we … (0 comments)
