innerloop homes: Buyers need to know why Buying NOW is Better Than Renting in Today's Market?

Buyers need to know why Buying NOW is Better Than Renting in Today's Market? Nick Walton has hit the nail on the head, rents in Houston are over the moon, I am constantly amazed at the amount people will pay for an area, with essentially "after tax dollars".

Pay your Home Owner Associations if you are going into Short Sale This is a very informative blog entry and I would have never thought to consel clients on this point. Pay your HOA dues even if you have stopped paying the mortgage.

In that situation the homeowner is enjoying the use of the property so they should at least pay the HOA dues. By … (3 comments)
