 This beautiful home went pending after two days on the market in February, and my buyer did not believe it would go so quickly, and missed out.  Luckily, this Buyer had another chance!  It came back on the market last Thursday evening at 7:45, and I alerted my Buyer, and they wrote THAT night, but the Seller needed a few more days for a response.   Second chances feel really good, and the buyer is thrilled.   The inspection has been done. This home features five bedrooms, five bathrooms, a 3-car garage, 5,343 square feet on .82 acres, beautifully groomed.   This home was built in 1982.

Common Credit Concerns Found with Divorcing Couples: Jody BrunsMortgage payment is missed. Whether an oversight or intentional, when a mortgage payment is missed there are more repercussions than just a negative hit to the credit score.  A single 30 day late mortgage loan payment can cause a credit score to drop by as much as one hundred points. A single 30 day late mortgage loan payment may prevent you from obtaining mortgage financing from 12 months up to 24 months depending on the loan program and investor.  Marital Home in Foreclosure Proceedings.

Property Settlement Notes in DivorceJody Bruns, CDLP, CMMU®Property Settlement Note – a deferred payment in property settlement used to equalize property. Used to equalize property Not taxable to recipient Does not survive bankruptcy  Very often when divorcing couples negotiate the terms and conditions of a property settlement, they agree to a structured settlement, which is a series of smaller payments paid over time, as opposed to a lump-sum payment. In this routine, a series of payments over a period of time comes to more than the agreed upon settlement sum because the recipient normally receives interest to compensate for the delayed payment.A property settlement note is not taxable to the recipient because the IRS says that the transfer of property in a marriage is not taxable and ...

Last week, we started talking about my Top 10 Tips for Buying and Selling in 2016. If you missed Part One of the series, visit out blog page at http://www.coloradodreamhouse.com/blog/ and catch up. In the meantime, here is my Part Two list to help you buy and sell in 2016. By Dan PoliminoSellers: Know which projects you can do to improve your value. We are always amazed at some of the projects that sellers feel like they need to do to improve their home to get it ready for sale. Epoxying the garage floor or replacing the fence is sure nice but it’s not going to get you a higher price. Make sure that you are doing improvements that add value when you sell, like kitchens and baths. You don’t have to spend a fortune; good updates can be made on a budget. Moreover, make sure that you know w...

Top 5 Tips for Buying and Selling Houses in 2016 by Dan PoliminoCheck in next week for five more tips about buying and selling.1. Buyers: Don’t overspend.I know it sounds simple, but everyone can get caught up in the emotion of a bidding war. You have been waiting for that perfect house, you have lost out on three others, and one just hit the MLS and your inbox. You decided to outbid the other six suitors and pay 30K over asking price. That’s okay if you plan to die in that house or stay there for at least 10 years, but if you are planning on having a re-sale in the next five years, you may have paid too much. Know your short term game -plan on how long you plan on living in that house, know your budget and be patient. Another home at the right price will come along.2. Sellers: Don’t be...

If you have ever lived in Denver, Colorado in the spring, you know it’s beautiful and it’s also hail season. Now, I am not a meteorologist, but here is how the hail phenomena was explained to me. Denver has an average of 300 plus days of sunshine every year (good for us). As such, the sun is out just about every morning. The sun heats up the snow on the mountains, and the snow melts. That moisture is absorbed into the atmosphere, creating storm clouds almost every afternoon in May and June. The air high above is still considerably colder at this time of year than what we are experiencing down on the ground. When the storm clouds fill up, the moisture is frozen into hail and thus damages Denver and the surrounding areas. The strange thing is that hail is very fickle. It’s normal for it t...

For the last year, we have been warning consumers that the slowdown in the Colorado Real Estate market is coming. At the beginning of this year, our best guess was that the market correction would come in sometime of 2018. There were many signs and signals that pointed us in this direction like interest rates, double digit home value appreciation three or more years in a row, government regulation, and the seven- and ten-year cycles of real estate. I could go on and on pointing out many more factors but maybe the strongest argument is “what goes up must come down”. Remember, the real estate market is a bell curve and the average consumer doesn’t know that we are on the way down to correction before it’s too late. Buyer’s market and seller’s market can last two, three, four years or more...

“Timing in life is everything” is a saying that has been around for a long time, and it applies to just about everything we do in life. It’s never been truer than when you apply the statement to real estate. In the past, the mantra has been “sell high and buy low.” Many people don’t realize that it usually doesn’t happen in real estate. If you are selling a home at the peak of the market, chances are you are also buying at the top of the market, unless you do what I have been urging my clients to do which is sell their home for peak price this spring or summer or next spring or summer. Then, take a year and rent. Wait for the market correction to come in late 2018. When home prices begin to drop by 10-15% take the cash you have in the bank (that has been earning interest) from the sale...

We have all heard about the flat fee real estate service companies like Trelora, Help You Sell, Assist to Sell and many others. They tout a one low flat fee to sell your home and promise to save you thousands. The flat fee prices vary as does the services offered for each rate. Some suggest you pay a full 2.8% in commission to the agent and supply the buyer, yet still some others think you can get away with offering as little as $2,000 or $3,000 to the buyer’s agent. Sounds great! Problem is, it rarely works.If you take nothing away from this column then just know this…If you do not sell your home, then you save nothing! That’s where the problem comes in. These flat fee service companies have a poor record of selling homes. According to MLS, one company (which shall remain nameless) onl...

In most years in real estate, you can accurately predict and advise your clients on how the market will perform, with one exception. It’s really hard to predict how the market will perform in an election year, especially since this seems to be an election year like none other. Establishment politics seem to be out the window, so what we can expect from a candidate or policies will be difficult to predict. How does this apply to real estate? Traditionally in an election year people tend to be very conservative. That means they keep their hands in their pocket, they are cautious to spend money, and may not make a major purchase before they know who their elected officials will be. So with the selling season upon  us in 30 days, it will be critical to have good timing this year. Is your go...
