real estate: Top 10 Most Expensive Homes in New Orleans - 02/19/08 02:54 AM
New Orleans Real Estate - Top 10 Most Expensive HomesCurious about the most expensive real estate sold in New Orleans in 2007? Me too!  So I did a bit of research and to the best of my knowledge, I created the top 10 list of the most  expensive residential real estate sold in New Orleans last year. I think that it is pretty interesting that the 7 out of 10 of the most expensive properties sold in 2007 were over $2,000,000.  And everyone is saying the high-end buyers aren't out there...ha!

How Bush’s new economic stimulus package effects New Orleans Real Estate Yesterday, President Bush signed a $168 billion economic stimulus package into law. That is a ton of money but will it have any real effects on our economy? Let’s first start with the details:

Tax rebates of $600 to individuals who make $75,000 or less, and $1,200 to couples who make $150,000 or less.

real estate: Myth: Mortgage Interest Rates Will Plummet in 2008 - 02/01/08 03:38 AM
Will the Fed’s recent rate cuts cause mortgage interest rates to plummet this year? Most likely not because the Funds Rate (the suggested overnight rate charge for banks) is NOT directly tied to fixed home loan rates! Fixed home loan rates are directly tied to bond rates and when the stock market goes up, the bond market goes down, which means mortgage rates go up. Obviously if we experience a recession than all bets are off.
So if you are looking to buy real estate, it may be the right time to lock in those low rates…because they just might go up!

real estate: Live "Green" or Die Hard! - 01/17/08 05:43 AM
Let's make our real estate more green and environmentally conscience shall we? So the title of the blog is a play on the Bruce Willis movie "Live Free or Die Hard." I haven't seen it but want to desperately! Anyway, I was doing a bit of research and stumbled upon a few ways to help the environment by doing a few small things around the house.
I know that I am not the most environmentally conscience person around, but I was inspired by a specific message I read on LiveEarth.org. It basically said that if everyone made small changes in their … (2 comments)

real estate: Which Home Improvement Project Should You Choose? - 01/16/08 05:28 AM
Which home improvement project should you choose to tackle before you sell your home? Ahh, that question is on the lips of nearly every home owner when they are about to list their home. HomeGain just came out with the results of their national survey of 2,000 real estate agents. The question posed to the real estate agents was "Which home improvement project has the highest return on investment?"
Take a look at the results:

Looks like cleaning and de-cluttering wins in 2007 with an ROI of nearly 600%! Could this be because the investment in cleaning and de-cluttering is … (2 comments)

real estate: Are We Heading into a Recession? - 01/15/08 03:20 AM
Everybody is talking about it…are we going towards a recession in 2008? A recession would certainly not be good and it would hit investor portfolios very hard…those same portfolios that were hit hard in 2007! I just read an article in BusinessWeek that speaks directly about the recession risk that we are facing in the United States. The article is very interesting and breaks down the issues into four main sections; The Credit Crunch, The Housing Slump, The Federal Reserve, and The Global Economy.
BusinessWeek surveyed 54 forecasters for their annual outlook their views on the subject and then analyzed the … (0 comments)

real estate: How Bank of America Just Saved the US Economy - 01/11/08 06:10 AM
Bank of America just bought Countrywide, the number 1 mortage lender, for $4 billion and may have saved the US economy.  Ok, that is a bit of an exaggeration!  But there is some level of merit to that statement.
Countrywide services about 1 in 6 home loans in the US and a bankruptcy would have created a major risk in the US economy.  Bank of America has avoided that risk by purchasing the falling company.  A bankruptcy of Countrywide would have probably shifted huge financial risk to Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae.  The reason it would have affected those government agencies … (16 comments)

real estate: There's No Such Thing As A Bad Market! - 01/08/08 04:01 AM
Regardless of what’s going on in the market, people will always be buying and selling real estate. According to Richard Gaylord, NAR president, 2007 existing home sales was higher than 2002 (which was a record-breaking year). Not bad in my opinion! We just have to remember to put things into context…We got used to the boom that we have recently experienced. Real estate is a long term investment, so we should not have gotten used to the short term high gains we had during the boom.
Looking at real estate as a long term investment (which it is) this is the … (0 comments)
