19140: How to buy a house
- 03/13/19 01:48 AM
If a buyer is interested in buying a home, they should start the process 6-9 months before the purchase. It should begin with checking their credit. If any issues are found, they can work on that immediately. However, it takes several credit cycles (every 30 days) for the credit report to update. Credit is one of the 3 C's (credit, capacity, collateral) needed with buying a home and it is very important. Having a good to excellent credit score will determine how much you will pay to borrow money-essentially your interest rate. When reviewing their credit reports, they should be looking for … (4 comments)

Tips for Rental Inspections As a Realtor, when I conduct a showing or a walk-through with my client, I am looking for active leaks, ceiling and floor stains, electrical amps, fresh paint, safety concerns (missing railings, trip hazards), adequate space in kitchens and bathrooms, closet space, storage, and most important cleanliness. As a new landlord you should look at your rental unit as if it were a place you would live in. Give it the same inspection you would give to a place you would be interested in renting. It doesn’t have to be top … (2 comments)

19140: Net Neutrality is a Game Changer
- 12/15/17 01:44 AM
Many real estate professionals and companies may now be at a disadvantage to deliver services to consumers online, as the Federal Communications Commission voted Thursday to repeal net neutrality rules. The move allows internet service providers to restrict the content its consumers see and implement pay-to-play policies, giving priority to content providers who pay a fee. For small-business owners, such as real estate agents and indie brokers, that could severely cripple their ability to reach a wider audience online.“The FCC’s rollback of the Open Internet Order will mean higher costs and slower service for millions of American consumers and businesses,” Elizabeth … (3 comments)

19140: Red Flags to Look for When Buying a Home
- 12/05/17 02:06 AM
When you and your buyers are touring open houses, tell them to watch for signs of larger issues with the property. Jenna Dougherty and Greta Eoff of the DeMasi Group at Keller Williams Realty in Davis, Calif., shared items that should raise alarms for buyers. Overpowering scent. If sellers are being too heavy-handed with scented candles or other fragrances, it could mean they are trying to cover up the source of more serious odors, such as a musty smell from mold, pets, or something else. Poor tiling. If there are gaps in the tiles or if the tiles are slightly uneven, it may … (2 comments)
19140: Having a Real Estate Security Plan is important
- 05/31/17 02:18 AM
Real Estate Agent's are at risk when it comes to showing homes alone, sitting Open Houses, and taking photo's of vacant listing. Because we-Real Estate Agent's, are independent contractors, our security and safety must be our own responsibility. As a successful agent, I have shown thousands of homes and sat hundreds of open houses alone, but not until last weekend did I realize that I needed a safety plan. I was sitting an Open House in North Philadelphia on Sunday alone. I set up my open house table next to the door, so that the guest will immediately be able to sign in, … (2 comments)
