mooresville real estate agent: House Buying Tips - 02/15/16 11:34 AM
 
Make sure your Credit is in orderPrior to your house hunting adventure, get copies of your credit report. Make sure the facts are correct, and fix any problems you discover.

mooresville real estate agent: Big Changes Possibly Coming to Zillow & Trulia - 03/14/15 04:54 AM
Zillow and Trulia could lose a huge of amount of listing data as the result of a judge's decision this week in San Francisco Superior Court.
Zillow Group filed a restraining order last month  against News Corp. to keep List-Hub listings on Trulia. That move followed News Corp.-owned ListHub's announcement earlier this year that it would terminate its contract with Trulia 16 months early.
News Corp.'s decision to end the contract was a reaction to the competition brought on by a combined Zillow-Trulia, as News Corp. bought Zillow rival Move Inc. last year.
