arizona homeseller: Chris Combs On No Claim for Home's Less Square Footage - 01/26/22 05:51 AM
 
From the advice of one of our preferred Attorneys, Mr. Chris Combs of Combs, Gottlieb & MacQueen, P.C.:
No Claim for Home's Less Square Footage 
Question: The listing brochure said that the Scottsdale home that we purchased for $2.5 million was 6,300 square feet. Our prior home in Tempe was 5,800 square feet. After close of escrow, we tried to move our furniture and furnishings from the Tempe home into the Scottsdale home, and there was barely enough room.

arizona homeseller: Chris Combs On Short-Term Rental Not Being ‘Grandfathered’ - 01/06/22 06:23 AM
 
From the advice of one of our preferred Attorneys, Mr. Chris Combs of Combs, Gottlieb & MacQueen, P.C.:
Short-Term Rental Would Not Be 'Grandfathered' 
Question: We have owned our Gilbert home for 30 years. In the last 2 years we have been the unfortunate neighbors of a short-term rental home.

If the short-term rental home is not stopped, we want to sell … (0 comments)

arizona homeseller: Chris Combs On Buyer Waiving If Seller Refuses Home Inspection - 11/30/21 05:46 AM
 
From the advice of one of our preferred Attorneys, Mr. Chris Combs of Combs, Gottlieb & MacQueen, P.C.:
Buyer Can Waive If Seller Refuses Home Inspection 
Question: We signed a purchase contract with the seller to buy a Glendale home for $450,000, and then deposited $10,000 earnest money with the escrow company. We were very excited, because not only were we having difficulty purchasing any home, this home was probably worth at least $500,000. Three days later our Realtor tried to schedule our 10-day inspection, but the seller’s agent said that the sellers were very unhappy about the $450,000 purchase price, and that … (0 comments)

arizona homeseller: You Might Not See Another Seller's Market As Good As What We Have Now! - 09/24/21 08:08 AM
You Might Not See Another Seller's Market As Good As What We Have Now!It's true. While we have been in a seller's market for years...this year Arizona homeowners can cash in BIG on gained equity. Arizona has seen almost a 30% increase in equity in just one year. Typically you'll only see equity rise 3-4% each year.
"But selling high means buying high!"
Yes and no...
Selling high gives you equity that you can pocket immediately, while getting a new low interest rate on another property and using that equity however you want. Same idea as taking out a second … (0 comments)

I get it. The market is in a position that we haven't seen before. It's kind of uncharted territory, so people wait in hopes pricing calms back down.
