When comparing against similar properties, it's not just the final price that counts.  Appraisers also factor in any "incentives" offered, such as sellers who pay closing costs or remodeling allowances. 
Perhaps the most important factor that lenders review in an appraisal is the closing dates of the "comparables" (other homes … (0 comments)

expert: LITTLE STEPS UP TO THE LEAP! - 12/22/09 02:19 AM

As you've already read here, conditions are ripe to become a homeowner, and it's time to determine if you're ready to make the leap.  While the price of the home is the largest factor, don't forget about loan fees and closing costs, which add to your total financed amount. 
Since banks are stricter in their lending, Step One is to polish up your credit report.  A higher score gives you more power when it comes to negotiating terms and interest rates.
Similarly, a larger downpayment will positively affect your mortgage terms and reduce the amount you have to finance.  If … (0 comments)

expert: California Real Estate Market is Improving- According to the California Association of Realtors! - 10/31/08 01:11 AM

According to the California Association of Realtors statewide sales in September surpassed the 500,000 mark for the first time in more than two years, rising 2.3 percent compared with August, and 96.7 percent from a year ago. The dramatic increase in sales can be attributed to weakness in the market from a year ago with the early onset of the credit crunch. Similar increases in sales occurred in the early 1980s when the market was climbing out of a comparatively steep downturn in sales. The market is expected to register significant year-to-year percentage gains in the coming months as current … (2 comments)
