This is my first blog post on Active Rain so I want to let you know a little bit about me and what I like to talk about.  I have been a home inspector in the Peoria, IL area since 2008.  My family and I moved here from San Diego in early 2008.  I've got a passion for helping people and I thought that home inspections would be a good way to interact with people and also help them make informed decisions concerning their home purchase.   I also consider myself an appreciation marketing specialist so I enjoy sharing with Real Estate agents and just about anyone else some of the finer points of marketing through appreciation.  I look forward to sharing with you all and I also look forward to your feedback.   Nick Harms www.facebook.com/appreciationworks www.inspectforyou.com

Believe it!  A loan program that calls for only 2% down and requires no mortgage insurance.  Loan is available anywhere in Illinois.  Is it restricted?  Of course it is.  It is limited to buyers earning 80% of the county's median income, or around $53,000 for up to a family of four. Not to tweak anyone, but there are a lot of people who put the mortgage meltdown on the backs of receipients of loans required by the Community Reinvestment Act.  That was the law that requires banks to make some loans in the MSA's in which they have deposits.  Which means that some lower earning people got to buy homes in less that upscale areas.  Imagine the nerve of congress to mandate that banks loan some of the federal guaranteed money to people who might not typically have access to decent loans. So wa...

Changes in International Accounting Standards Could Transfer Up to $1.3 Trillion onto US Balance Sheets and Discourage Companies from signing longer leases.    Northrop Grumman Corp.'s decision in July to relocate its corporate headquarters from Los Angeles to a 14-story, 334,385-square-foot building it acquired in Falls Church, VA, was a huge economic development victory for Fairfax County and the state of Virginia. But the defense contractor's decision to buy rather than lease its headquarters building at 2980 Fairview Park Drive has also drawn renewed attention to a major international proposal that could effectively end off-balance-sheet treatment of leases. The International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) on Aug. 17 released th...

Sorry for being a little MIA on the blog front.  We had a new addition to The Kim Group on July 4th ~ Aidan John was born.  We just love him!  He is learning the ropes very quickly.

I just did an "Open House" tour around Peoria.  Please Realtors, understand the value we have here in Central Illinois. Having spent 31 years in California makes me appreciative of the housing values.  Realtors here can say with an honest heart and open eyes that it can be cheaper to own  than to rent - to say nothing of equity buildup and tax savings!  I try to keep my enthusiasm in check when working with a buyer getting a loan to buy a home for $120,000 or so with interest rates as low as they are today.  And buyers on the fence; I just want to chuck them on the shoulder and have them get moving and call a Realtor and buy a house.  There, I have had my say.  I rejoice in living in an area where housing is not a budget buster for our middle class!

Thinking of buying a flip home, but have not look at HUD homes due to the 90 day regulation against flipping?  Well now might be your chance!  Below is a link to an article from Reuters.  Effective Feb 1, the Housing and Urban Development Department will waive for one year an FHA rule that prohibits insuring a mortgage on a home owned by the seller for less than 90 days. See more by clicking on the link:  http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20100115/us_nm/us_usa_economy_foreclosures   I have sold many HUD properties, If you need assistance please let me help!
