home in henry county: Low Henry County Mortgage Rate Hike Just Around the Corner? - 11/12/15 12:40 AM
There’s a reason that Henry County home loan providers sometimes choose to lead their ads with a ‘lock’ provision. They know that potential clients likely to be enticed by low Henry County mortgage rate numbers are fairly sophisticated—they know that today’s mortgage rate is not necessarily tomorrow’s. By the time a home loan is finalized, the headlined number could be less favorable; hence, the ‘lock’ guarantees.
For quite a while—years, actually—Henry County mortgage rates have behaved themselves pretty much the way we’d like. There may have been occasional minor upticks, but seldom any that would cause serious consternation. The interest rate hikes which some experts … (0 comments)

home in henry county: For Owners of Henry County Homes For Sale, Food for Thought - 11/02/15 01:08 AM
There are many generalizations that can be truly instructive for homeowners with Henry County homes for sale. The undeniable importance of “location, location, location!” is a good one; de-clutter! as a main order of business is another…as is the wisdom of researching neighborhood comparables.
Anybody with homes for sale in Henry County can usually visit the National Association of Realtors® website for useful nuggets of that kind of information. However, one article that appeared there last week seemed to me to be less than real estate gospel—although it was thought-provoking. It dealt with features that might make some homes for sale harder to sell; … (0 comments)

home in henry county: Henry County Agent Investigates Home Prices ‘Starting at $115 Million’ - 11/02/15 01:06 AM
I’ll admit it: the tease was irresistible. There was no good reason why I should take the time to read on, even though it was near the top of the Wall Street Journal’s Real Estate section. This was not likely to be the kind of relevant background information that would be useful in my daily Henry County real estate dealings.
But the tease was not something I could just skim past and forget. The words were dangling there on the screen; almost a dare:
“Where Home Prices Start at $115 Million.”
It wasn’t just the $115,000,000 home price that aroused curiosity. After all, this was … (1 comments)

home in henry county: Henry County Homeowners Have a Range of Financial Options - 11/02/15 01:02 AM
It’s because the purchase of a home involves such a substantial sum that Henry County homeowners are often thought of as being financially constrained. With years’ worth of income bound up in a mortgage, it’s the dominant figure in many a financial statement.
But there is also another way to look at it—and it’s the way much of the financial world does. They know that homeownership is a very positive attribute. It indicates stability; dependability; substantiality; soundness. That’s why second mortgages are so common. And it’s why the financial ‘constraint’ that people think of in connection with owning a home can be a … (0 comments)

home in henry county: Selling a House in Henry County Can Take a little ‘Plastic Surgery’ - 10/26/15 03:34 AM
Suppose you finally came to an important decision—that this fall is going to be the right time for selling your Henry County house. If you had been biding your time, watching other Henry County houses being listed and closed throughout the summer, you may also have been getting a head start on some major maintenance or remodeling projects that you knew would be needed once you put your own place up for sale.
You may even have cleared away some extraneous furniture or décor items that had accumulated through the years, and made sure the landscaping was in good trim. If you had done … (1 comments)

home in henry county: Choosing a Henry County Agent with this ‘Must Have’ Quality - 10/26/15 03:31 AM
There is one overriding quality you must demand when you hire the Henry County agent who will be your partner and representative. It’s a quality you and you alone are qualified to judge. And it should be the final determinant—the last factor you consider before you make your final agent choice.
Now it’s true that in many instances, this quality isn’t even one you have to think about. That’s true when you have previously worked with a Henry County agent who did what she or he had promised. When you’ve bought a home or sold one, been helped through successful negotiations, dealt with the … (0 comments)

home in henry county: Calculator Helps Clarify If or When to Buy a Henry County Home - 10/26/15 03:28 AM
The answer to the question about whether any individual or family would be better off if they rent or buy a home can differ depending upon when the question is posed as well as the particulars of the available properties in either category. Even when the financial calculations make it clear that to buy a home in Henry County would result in significant savings, it’s possible that credit problems or simple cash inaccessibility render the choice moot—for the moment, anyway.
The reason a family budget is universally recognized as the single best way to get a handle on finances is because if you … (0 comments)

home in henry county: Know the Emotional Element in Selling Your Henry County Home - 10/21/15 02:26 AM
When you read up on the dos and don’ts for selling your home, there is one piece of advice that’s universal when it comes to negotiating a successful deal: don’t let emotions get in the way. It does seem peculiar that something that is so obvious about any negotiation would have to be stated at all—much less repeated so often. You have to conclude that it happens a lot.
It does, and there are deep-seated reasons. Although selling your Henry County home is primarily a business venture, it’s one with some of the emotional overtones usually associated with creative endeavors. When an artist … (2 comments)

home in henry county: House Hunters’ Sunday Drives Still Yield Henry County Open Houses - 10/21/15 02:18 AM
More than one Henry County home sale has resulted from a couple’s chance encounter with a Henry County open house. It still happens that they just drop in on the spur of the moment.
“Oh look! They’re having an open house down the street!” turns into curiosity, then interest, excitement—and ultimately, a life-altering change in where they call home.
Today that still happens, but a good deal less frequently than in the past. Part of the reason is the demotion of the open house in the pecking order of Henry County real estate strategies. At this point, an Henry County open house is simply never the central element … (0 comments)

home in henry county: Specific Tips for Selling Your Henry County House this Fall - 10/12/15 04:17 AM
It’s October­­­; a time of year that has a lot to recommend it. In many parts of the country, it’s the season when Mother Nature goes full throttle with the Technicolor. Sunsets can be outrageous. In some parts of the country, leaves can bid adieu with displays that put rainbows to shame. Fall weather turns the air a bit crisper. All in all, to a lot of folks, fall is the favorite time of the year.
Selling your Henry County house in the autumn, on the other hand, can present some special challenges. Selling your house in the springtime, for instance, doesn’t include … (1 comments)

home in henry county: Henry County Home Loan Game Theory—Not so Theoretical - 10/12/15 04:13 AM
“Henry County home loan game theory” sounded like an intriguing topic when the phrase first occurred to me. I thought it would mean figuring out whether a mortgage would constitute a financial move that made sense. But the more I studied “game theory,” the more complicated it got. And maybe not as theoretical as I’d thought...
As far as the terms themselves are concerned, a Henry County “Home Loan” is exactly what it says it is: a mortgage on your Henry County home. “Game theory” is more obscure. For openers, “game theory” sounds like a lot more fun that it really is. It’s like the … (0 comments)

If 90% of home buyers use the internet at some point in their search, the percentage who go to the Henry County listings has to be close to the same ballpark. It’s hard to imagine anyone NOT wanting to take at least a peek at the current listings. Even if they have already settled on a target property, curiosity would send most of us to check out the way it’s described in its Henry County listing.
When you begin your house-hunting project online, the chances are you just scan the listings’ major features to narrow down the candidates, leaving out the majority of the finer … (0 comments)

home in henry county: Off-Market vs. Off the Market: Tricky Real Estate Distinction - 09/28/15 04:51 AM
The Henry County real estate listings consist of the lineup of Henry County homes that are currently “on the market.” They’re for sale. Offered to buyers. Available for purchase. “On the market” is a straightforward real estate term; end of discussion.
So, you’d think that “off the market” should be equally unequivocal, and it would be, if it weren’t for “off-market,” with which it’s easily confused. And then there’s the fact that what actually happens after a formerly listed property goes off the market can result in a several different outcomes.
Sounds like a dose of contradictory Henry County real estate jargon—but it can be sorted … (0 comments)
