According to the National Association of Realtors®, first quarter statistics again point to better home sales figures. This time it was the prices of single family homes that rose in half of the major cities in the United States. Because of the wide differences between regional and state conditions, these figures are never in 100% lockstep, but Akron Ohio home owners should be encouraged by the report: prices rose in more than twice as many cities as they fell.
Of course, rising prices are always good news for Akron Ohio home owners who want to sell … (0 comments)

To get you started, there are a couple of different methods to help establish a ballpark estimate of what … (0 comments)

Anyone interested in buying a home in Akron and NE Ohio today has heard that they should expect to find tougher mortgage lending requirements. Sometimes that can seem arbitrary -- or just plain unfair. But unfair or not, the new lending reality is probably here to stay for a while, and the causes are understandable. The mortgage industry learned a powerful lesson from the past, when it pretty much gave anyone who applied a generous loan – sometimes with practically no questions asked. But this “generosity” created financial problems for both the banking industry and the country as a whole. … (0 comments)
