meridian idaho real estate: Forebearance, whose heard of this option? - 08/01/11 10:00 AM
I just received my monthly update letter from HUD and this was the first article:
"With 60 percent of the unemployed out of work more than three months and 45 percent out of work more than six, HUD Secretary Shaun Donovan says the Obama Administration believes “current unemployment forbearance programs have mandatory periods that are inadequate for the majority of unemployed borrowers,” As a result, it’s now requiring servicers of FHA insured mortgages to extend the forbearance period for unemployed homeowners to 12 months  to give them “a substantially greater chance of finding employment before they lose their home.”  Every FHA-approved … (3 comments)

meridian idaho real estate: What do you mean you want to buy a HUD-owned home? - 08/01/11 08:18 AM
I received an inquiry on-line today asking about HUD-owned homes.  Since I am a Registered HUD Realtor I thought I would answer here to help more than just that buyer.
1. Find a Realtor who is a Registered HUD Realtor.  Not everyone is one.  If your broker doesn't register to be a HUD broker, then the agent who work at that office can't register.
2. Find out if that Registered HUD Realtor has any experience writing and getting those offers accepted.
3. Get a loan approval letter from your lender.
4. See the actual HUD-owned home to confirm you want to … (2 comments)

meridian idaho real estate: Any investors out there looking for good value in Boise/Meridian, Idaho? - 07/29/11 07:34 AM
I searched like I would look for myself today for homes that are active listings, at least three bedrooms, at least two baths and at least 1,200 square feet and at least a 2-car garage, priced under $100,000.  I initially had fifteen found my search but realized quickly that several were short sales or backed to busy streets or had some functional obsolescence so I reduced them to four finalists.
The first one is in Meridian.  It is bank-owned.  It was last purchased in May 2005 for $123,000.  In 2005 it had a new water heater installed, new carpet, and some … (0 comments)

meridian idaho real estate: Coolwater Creek Ranch and Events-What a surprise in Meridian, Idaho! - 07/29/11 04:32 AM
As I drove out to this destination, I wondered why didn't I know this was here?  The sixty acre ranch wasn't really that noticeable from the street.  As I drove in I saw an adequate parking lot for a large event.  I saw a barn looking metal structure and was greeted by Bob LaVelle and his wife when I came in.  Bob used to own Bogus Creek Outfitters and ran a sleigh ride in the winter in the mountains to a dinner served in a tent with a fireplace burning wood for heat.  They sold that enterprise and have owned the … (0 comments)

meridian idaho real estate: What's the most expensive per square listing in your MLS? - 07/27/11 05:31 AM

The listing shows a 1,000 square foot manufactured home on a foundation, … (0 comments)

meridian idaho real estate: How do Realtors get paid? - 03/19/11 10:08 AM
Every day I am amazed at the questions that I hear, especially the one of how do Realtors get paid?  I guess it really isn't that easy.  Some of us work on a commission basis, which means that our income is all tied to the sale and closing of a particular home.
Some of us work on a consultative model that allows the consumer to decide if they pay us for certain activities as they happen, say $250.00 for an afternoon of showing homes.  Often consumers don't like that way of business because they don't want to take on the risk.

Every week I try to go through the multiple listing service (MLS) database and look for the best real estate buys in Meridian, Idaho.
