investor: Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac
- 10/21/08 10:10 AM
I have had a few thoughts about the recent collapse of the mortgage giants and would like to know others thoughts on the matter. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac were both taken over by the government in September of this year. This was mostly because of lax underwriting guidelines, and the declining home prices in the US. Since then the real estate market has continued to deteriorate, and congress has passed a $700 billion bailout of the banks. Both of the mortgage giants have continued to tighten lending guidelines and ratchet up rates. In order to get the very best rate … (0 comments)
investor: Now is the best time to buy in 4 years!
- 03/04/08 04:03 AM
I just read an article on-line that said that homes are now at the most affordable rate in that they have been at in the last 4 years. This is because of falling prices in overvalued markets, and also a larger inventory of homes on the market, fueled by foreclosures. This is certainly good news, that homes are once again becoming affordable to the average person.

investor: Investing in Nashville Tennessee is getting more popular.
- 02/27/08 08:20 AM
I have noticed that more and more people are investing in real estate here in Nashville and middle Tennessee. I work with several investors and I have seen some really good deals come across my desk in the past few months. With more homes going into foreclosure, now is a great time to find bargains. I specialize in working with investors, and have developed quite a bit of knowledge on how to get investment loans closed quickly. I can offer rehabilitation (REHAB) loans that even let the buyer finance the cost of the home as well as the costs to repair the … (2 comments)
investor: Harwood Floor nightmare!!
- 02/12/08 08:17 AM
My wife and I recently decided to install new hardwoods in our home. After months of deliberating and shopping for the right deal, we finally had what we wanted. We met with our installer and told him we would take up the old flooring in our home to save on the costs. So we got up this past Saturday and started working on the 360 square foot area of our home that already had hardwoods. Here is where the crazy part began. The hardwoods had been glued down to the plywood sub-flooring beneath, making it almost impossible to rip up. After about 5 … (4 comments)
investor: Real Estate Lawyers
- 02/07/08 04:05 AM
I just had a deal go bad because of a lawyer. This is not to say that all lawyers are like this, but this is what happend in this particular case. A client was trying to purchase a home as an investment, and everything appeared to be moving along just fine, until the seller asked to have a lawyer look at the contract. The original contract had been written up on the standard TN real estate contract, and nothing was out of the ordinary. There was an inspection contingeny, as well as appraisal and financing contengincies. By the time the lawyers had rewritten everything, … (8 comments)

investor: Credit Scoring Tips
- 02/05/08 03:27 AM
Here are a few quick scoring tips that may help in getting the most out of your credit scores. What goes into your credit score?: Payment History (35% of the rating) Length of Credit History (15% of the rating) New Credit (10% of the rating) Types of Credit Used (10% of the rating) Debt (30% of the rating) (try to keep all balances below 50% of high credit limit)
Pay all bills on time. This is probably the most important factor in the Credit Score Calculation. If you are as little as 30 days past due, your score can drop by as much as 100 points, depending on … (1 comments)
investor: Rehab Loans for Investors!!
- 02/04/08 03:39 AM
I just wanted to write about some loans that I specialize in that can be a great asset to both Real Estate agents and investors. They are known as Rehab Loans, and they provide financing not only for the purchase of the home, but also for the repairs that may be needed. Here is how they work. First the property must have some good equity in it. The bank will lend up to 80% of the after repaired value (ARV) on the home. So an appraisal is done based on the home being updated and in good condition. As an example, if … (0 comments)
