Technically, the ‚closing‘ of a deal occurs when you sign the papers that make the property yours. But before that can happen, there are some things that you need to know. A little working knowledge on how the real estate transactions work can go a long way.

1. Walk Through The Property

Better safe than sorry! Inspect the house once more to ensure that it is in a proper condition as agreed upon by all parties. During the walk through, make sure that all the conditions required by the agreement like appliances and furnishings, have been met.

2. Secure The Required Insurance Policies

In order to obtain a mortgage, most lenders require the buyer to purchase a homeowners‘ insurance policy. A homeowner’s insurance policy protects both the buyer and the lender, in case something happens to the house in the future.

3. Open An Escrow Account

An escrow account is an account that is held by a third party on behalf of the two parties in a transaction. This makes things easier and more comfortable, as there are many activities required to complete a home sale. Moreover, an escrow account is the best way to prevent either the seller or the buyer from any kind of fraud, as the money and related documents are with a neutral third party.

4. Lock Your Interest Rates

Since interest rates are unpredictable and fluctuate multiple times a day, you need to monitor the interest rates and lock them if you haven’t done that already. Keep an eye on the market, and lock your interest when the rates are at the lowest, and most affordable.

5. Get Pest Inspection Done

A pest inspection involves a specialist who ensures that your home does not have any wood-destroying insects like termites or carpenter ants. Even a small termite problem can spread and destroy the entire house. So, treat any minor pest problem immediately, if it exists.

6. Obtain Title Insurance

A title insurance policy is a policy that protects the buyer and the lender when there are problems with the land after the sale closes. While obtaining a title insurance policy, learn which policy offers the best protection for the least amount of money.

7. Consult An Attorney

It is difficult to create legal documents and confirm the laws relating to the real estate market. Hiring an experienced attorney will make things easier, and will aid you with the closing documents.

8. Renegotiate Your Offer

If your inspection reveals any defects or flaws in the property, you may want to reconsider the offer to reflect the cost of any repairs you may need to make.

9. Finalize Your Finances

Prior to closing the deal, sort out all your finances and make sure that you have the money you need to pay the closing costs and your down payments.

10. Schedule And Attend The Closing

Sign the towering paperwork, and see to it that both parties are present for the closing. Also, make sure that the interest rate on the papers is correct and there is no prepayment penalty. If you have hired an attorney, then he/she should be present at the venue with you, to ensure that all the paperwork is completed successfully.

Closing a real estate deal can be tedious business, but once the deal is closed, you can heave a sigh of relief. If you ever are unsure about what you are doing, then consult a real estate expert or an attorney to help you out.

Not everyone is willing to use a real estate agent, since they do take a commission, usually around 7%. That means, by selling your own home, you’ll end up with upwards of $10,000 that would have gone to an agent. And given today’s slow market there is a very real chance your home will sit unsold for a year or more.

Today, more than ever selling your own house can not only be more profitable, but it is your best chance at getting it sold quickly.

In this article, I am going to show you how to go from „selling your own house“ to „I SOLD my own house“.

In a hot market selling may have been as easy as putting a „for sale by owner“ sign in front of the house and collecting offers. But let’s face it, times are tough and most houses are sitting unsold for months and years.

It’s a war zone out there. Foreclosures are at an all time high and that creates a lot of houses for sale on the market. In order to survive in a war zone you need special skills and a competitive advantage. With this special training you can get your house SOLD, despite the doom and gloom of the newspaper headlines.

If you’re selling your own house you need a secret weapon. And that weapon is highly specialized marketing!

Here is a killer marketing tip that will give you a competitive advantage over all other sellers on your block.

Don’t list your home in a traditional method. Instead of „starting high“ and being talked down do the EXACT OPPOSITE. Start low, get a lot of attention and let the buyers drive the price up. I am talking about a do-it-yourself auction style sale.

What is working best now is what’s called a „round robin auction“. Here is how it works:

First you will advertise that your home is for auction. In these tough times buyers are looking to get a good deal. Auctions are the place to get great deals, and your message will leap out at them.

Next you will hold an open house for two days only, Saturday and Sunday from 12 noon to 5 pm. This will allow you to funnel all the buyers through your doors all at once.

Those that are interested in the property will place their name and phone number along with the price they would like to bid on an „initial bidding sheet“.

On Sunday night you call all those people that put in a bid and conduct the auction. You will simply call down the list tell them the current bid amount and ask them if they would like to raise or pass. You will go around and around making calls until the highest and best offer has presented itself, hence the name „round robin auction“.

Now that you have found your buyer you will meet with them and get the paperwork started.

That’s the unique marketing method that is working now. And if you are planning on selling your own house there is no better method to attract droves of buyers and compel them to make offers on your house.

Real estate investing strategies have undergone major changes in the past four years. Before the banking crisis and economic recession, many investors were generating massive profits through rehabbing distressed properties and engaging in house flipping. Today, investors are using distressed properties to generate rental income or to offer creative financing options.

The first step to achieving real estate investment success is to become educated about the market. Investors should become familiar with the various types of investment properties such as residential, commercial, and vacant land, as well as investing in real estate notes and land contracts.

Residential real estate can be used as rental properties or placed for sale. Many investors are offering creative finance strategies to attract buyers who cannot qualify for bank financing. Popular financing options include lease purchase option agreements and seller carry back mortgages.

Commercial real estate includes a wide mix of properties such as condominium and apartment complexes, retail shops, warehouses, and office buildings. Investors often partner with other investors or investment groups when purchasing commercial property in order to cover the costs and management duties required to maintain investment properties.

Commercial property has the potential to generate substantial profits as long as investors evaluate market conditions. Investors may be entitled to tax incentives when commercial investments bring employment opportunities to the area or when properties are upgraded using energy-efficient technology such as solar panels or other forms of green energy.

Investors often seek out bank owned foreclosure properties because this type of realty is usually priced well below market value. Bank owned realty encompasses all types of properties and can range from mobile homes to swanky high-rise apartments and industrial parks to golf courses.

Locating residential and commercial foreclosures is relatively simple. Using the services of a realtor can expedite the process. Agents can access the multiple listings (MLS) database to quickly locate all types of properties for sale.

Once banks repossess properties they are first placed for sale through public or government auctions. The property is given back to the bank if it goes unsold at auction. Banks then sell foreclosure properties through their loss mitigation division or local realtors.

Prices of bank owned properties are generally higher than properties sold through auction. However, banks remove liens and judgments in order to sell the real estate with a clean title. Buyers are able to take quick possession and can move forward with preparing the property for sale or rent.

Many investors are buying residential properties through Fannie Mae’s Homepath Mortgage program. In addition to selling homes at deeply discounted prices, Homepath Mortgage offers low down payment requirements and special financing options to both individual buyers and real estate investors.

Many Fannie Mae properties qualify for grant money offered through HUDs Neighborhood Stabilization Program. NSP grants are offered to improve properties located in areas with high rate of foreclosure. Qualified investors can obtain up to five NSP grants.

Investors who invest in commercial real estate must become educated about federal, state, and county property laws. Commercial buildings must comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act and be zoned for commercial use.

Although the real estate market continues to head in a downward spiral, there are still plenty of solid investment opportunities. Investors must stay abreast of market conditions and be capable of changing strategies when needed. Otherwise, they will quickly become another real estate statistic.

When a homeowner decides, he wants to sell his home, shouldn’t his objective be, to get the best possible price, in the shortest possible period of time, in a way, where he minimizes stress and strain, throughout the entire process and period? When selecting one’s agent, he should opt for someone, who takes the time, and makes the effort, to thoroughly articulate his reasoning, approach, and how, he might work together, agent and client, to get the best possible results! Often, this begins, with a clear – cut, focused effort, on pricing the home, right, from the start, because, nearly every study and evaluations, indicates, most houses garner their best offers, in the first few weeks after they are listed on the real estate market. This article will attempt to briefly discuss 5 considerations for pricing one’s home, to sell.

1. Market conditions: There is no single way to price a house. Specific market conditions vary, periodically, and these should have an important impact, on how to proceed. Is there a buyers, or sellers market? It’s a Buyers Market, when there are more sellers than buyers, and a Sellers Market, when there are fewer homes listed, for sale.

2. Competitive Market Analysis: The best way to determine the listing price, should be, by using a Competitive Market Analysis, or C.M.A. This means, carefully, considering the price, similar houses, recently sold for, while taking into consideration, and adjusting upward and/ or downward, based on differences. When homes are priced right, from the start, they will generally attract the greatest number of qualified, potential buyers.

3. Economy: Economic considerations, are a major factor, in pricing. When the overall economy is strong, and there is strong consumer sentiment/ confidence, as well as a powerful job market, more people are seeking houses, which, based on the concept of supply and demand, raises prices. Conversely, when this is diminished, creates less interest, and the need to adjust pricing.

4. Mortgage rates: Most buyers purchase their house, taking advantage of using a mortgage. Therefore, they evaluate, their monthly expenses and costs, and when interest rise, and mortgage rates, do, also, fewer people are able to afford something, because it costs more to buy a specific – priced house. When this lowers demand, often, the house, sells for a lower price.

5. Specific strengths and weaknesses: Although homes may be similar, in terms of size, interior and exterior, etc, every property has specific strengths and weaknesses, which affect prices. The first is location, because certain areas might be more sought after, and, thus, buyers may be willing to pay a higher price, there. Upgrades, updates, condition (specific and overall), layout, curb appeal, etc, will either strengthen or weaken the potential selling price, of a particular house.

When you objectively, consider, these 5 considerations, and price the house accordingly, you enhance the potential selling price. Homeowners should identify, and select, the best agent, for their specific needs!

Investing in real estate is one of the ways to increase your money, but for that to occur, you have to find the best cheap land for sale. Land is not an investment that depreciates, so investing in some will not leave you disappointed. But there’s more to it than simply purchasing the first cheap land for sale by owner you find. There are some things that you need to know first, before you decide that said piece of land is worth the money.

The first rule is always location. It is hard to find cheap land in an urban area that has already grown tremendously. But this does not mean that you go for a land that has is located in an area without so much as good road access. It’s all about taking your time and finding the right listing with cheap land for sale that is conveniently located. At the very least, make sure the land you are interested in is in a location that is likely to grow. Also consider the geography of the area, and the climate. If it gets too hot or too cold in some seasons, it might not be a worthy purchase, more so if you plan on building in the land.

Second factor to take into consideration is the profitability of any cheap farm or hunting land for sale. While land is hardly known to depreciate, it can take time before it amounts to any profit. You have to find land in an area that is likely to grow, because growth will be associated with a land price increase. Even if you don’t intend to sell immediately, it is comforting to know that you can get good profit from selling the cheap land for sale that you invest in.

Stick with proven markets, instead of buying some cheap farm land for sale in an area that is hardly known. It does not make much sense when you buy a piece of land out in the country, where you know decades will pass before the area ever grows. Instead, buy land in an area that already has a spark for growth, before other people seize the opportunity.

When buying cheap land for sale, keep in mind that the seller will have a sales pitch ready, and will try to get you to buy the piece of land. But take some time and think about the buying decision. If you have any doubts, don’t ignore them. In any case, you can always look somewhere else.

All the rage today is mainly about a sluggish real estate market and also about foreclosures, but very little about short sales. Apprentice by a renowned master.

You are thinking…yea, I heard about them, but really didn’t want to act dumb and ask. Well, you are not alone. Even many real estate agents don’t know either, until…the short sale deal completes and they get their commission check, and they are „all ears“. How did that happen so quickly?

Up until then I was savvy about being creative, but when I heard the term foreclosure or bankruptcy, I said, „I’ll pass“. I knew just enough to be ignorant and sense enough to „pass on it“. I admit that I knew very little at that time.

As one of my first rent to own deals started „going south,“ I thought that it was best to call the sellers bank and see „what the heck is going on“?

That was my first brush with a foreclosure. The lady at the bank (a „gruff“ lady) proceeded in setting me straight. After she calmed me down and explained just exactly what she wanted and what I needed to do if I wanted a „good deal“.

She explained that the bank was not interested in being in the real estate business. It was in the bank’s best interest to get me a good payoff discount on what was owed by the property seller (I only had an option to buy the property).

I heeded her advice and was able to do my first short sale option transfer (i.e. „flip“) and not only salvaged the $15,000 of profit that I thought that I was about to lose to a foreclosure, but actually was able to raise the profit to $25,000.

Not bad for stumbling unguided through a dark and cloudy maze of unknown.

At the time there were very few books and tapes, and I never heard of a „boot camp“ other than in my military days. I kind of „hob knobbed“ and slowly made sense of it. I was a slow learner, but very persistent and determined.

Since that time of wonder, I have attended many seminars, bought a few courses and read everything I could get my hands on. In the interim I have successfully completed hundreds of short sales and saved many homeowners from the brink of foreclosure and realized thousands of dollars of profits for my efforts.

I actually completed four short sale deals in one day. I should say, a very busy but very profitable one, I profited over $150,000 in one day. Smiling brightly.

The one thing that I found to be very enlightening was the fact that as I learned a piece here and there, I truly believe that most of the gurus and book writers have never actually completed a short sale transaction? All textbook theory that reads well but really doesn’t work. Believe me, I read them all.

Describe how to swim, but you can’t tell me what the water feels like.

I asked a well-known guru several questions at an event and he admitted that he didn’t have the answers and has really never completed many sales and his income is from speaking. He laughed and said that he would call me when he actually ready to do a short sale deals. „I like your way better“.

Enough story telling. Getting back to the short sale business. Let me explain what a short sale is. First I will start with a typical sale.

When a property owner decides to sell a property, the closing attorney calls the bank and requests a payoff amount to satisfy the mortgage. That amount is included as line item on the settlement sheet, HUD-1.

That payoff number is subtracted from the selling price less any other normal and reasonable expenses and the seller typically leaves with a check for the difference. A happy day for the seller with money in hand and the property sold.

This is the scenario that most of us are familiar with and typically happens.

Now this is where the „rubber meets the road,“ and where my invaluable experience separate the go-getters from the wannabes, plain and simple.

However when the property owner wants to sell the property and now for a combination of reasons owes more than the property is worth, what options does the seller have now? Under typical circumstances, many if they act quickly.

In most cases like this, the seller believes that there is no hope and generally walks away from the property, and by default the bank takes it back by a foreclosure action.

It becomes a REO property (real estate owned by the bank) and resold at a fraction of the original loan value. If only the seller had been diligent?

Stands to reason that if you cannot payoff the exact amount of the mortgage, what other options may be available for the seller? Let’s see???

One relatively unknown option is to negotiate a SHORT SALE.

A short sale is a term used by the bank whereby they will grant to the borrower a lesser payoff amount than what is actually owed. That’s correct, for less than what’s owed including closing costs and real estate commissions.

Example… if they owe $100,000, the bank would accept $85,000? That’s exactly right…a mere $15,000 of savings, enough to get it sold now.

If that were the case, then a property owner that owes more than the property is worth would then be able to complete the sale of the property with a short sale. The revised sale price would now be at or below market value.

Why in the world would a bank want to even consider this discount?

· Eliminates future carrying costs till the property would sell.

· The longer a property is unsold, it continues to decline in value.

· The bank realizes there is a buyer ready to close now.

· The bank is not and doesn’t want to be in the real estate business.

· The bank is not earning any money on non-performing loans.

· The bank only earns money when borrowers are repaying loans.

· It’s the best of a worst-case scenario. No other choices.

· Looks better on the report to the stockholders.

· Stop chasing good money after bad. Stop the bleeding.

Now coupling this with the current economic situation, the numbers of foreclosures have absolutely multiplied. Some counties are averaging over 100+ foreclosures daily combined with a decrease in property values by 25%, a 3+year backlog of property inventory and minimal monthly sales.

All these situations are creating tremendous opportunities for real estate investors and buyers. A 3-4 year supply to pick from and prices at a huge reduced savings lead to a true „buyers market.

A buyer can find a super super value on a new home of up to a 50% discount of market value. A real estate investor can flip, option or fix up and rent it, then resell it at a hefty profit later when the market rebounds.

As you can see, a short sale can open up a „log jam“ for many sellers that would otherwise lose their homes to foreclosure. Additionally it becomes a golden opportunity for buyers, real estate agents, and related service industries and for people like you and me.

As the real estate market dips, it can be more attractive to sell your home on your own then hire a real estate agent. A real estate agent will take up to 6% of your home’s value in commission. This can get expensive, and in today’s economy, you want to save as much money as possible. But can you really sell your house by yourself?

It’s actually not as hard as you might think. The most difficult part is the paperwork. However, this varies from state to state, and even from city to city.

Step 1 – You’ll want to check with your local municipality to see what their regulations are in signing over a title.

Step 2 – Before you list your house, you want to make it ready to sell.

Clean up, repair it, and basically make it look as nice as possible.

One thing that can help is putting some items in storage.

This makes your home seem less cluttered and more spacious.

Step 3 – Next, you need to decide how much to list your home for. If you price it too high, you won’t have anyone interested. If you price it too low, people will think there must be a problem with it. So look at what other houses in the area are selling for, and price your home accordingly.

Step 4 – Finally, you’ll need to list your house. There are several ways to do this. You can list it online at realtor websites. You can list it in newspapers. You can even list it on Craigslist. The more places you list your house, the easier it will be to sell your home on your own.

Foreclosures are the perfect investment choice for investors because they are sold at discounted prices. You are getting a property with built-in equity. Foreclosures can be purchased at foreclosure auctions or by purchasing REO’s (bank-owned real estate). Short sales are preforeclosures and have not gone through the foreclosure process. They are still owned by their current owners who are in default or about to default. The seller must obtain approval from his or her lender to sell the home for less than he or she owes on the mortgage. Short sales are also good investments because they are sold at discounted prices. However, there is no guarantee that your offer will be accepted by the seller’s lender, and the closing date cannot be determined until the seller’s lender approves the sale. If you don’t have time to wait, foreclosure auction properties and REO’s are better choices.

Buying at Foreclosure Auctions

Foreclosure auctions are open to the general public. The highest bidder is awarded the property for cash and given a deed that must be recorded with the county recorder’s office. Each state conducts its foreclosure sales differently. In some states, foreclosures are conducted by the Sheriff at the county courthouse. Other sales are conducted by private trustee sales or auction companies at the property. You can buy foreclosures at online auctions, too. Some states allow the former owner to redeem the property after the sale pursuant to statutory redemption laws. You should always check the foreclosure laws of the state in which you are buying property. To find out about public foreclosure auctions, you can check the local newspaper. Also notices are posted at the private and at the county courthouse. Information is also available from many sources online.

Due Diligence

Before you decide to bid at a foreclosure auction, check the recent comparable sold properties in the area in which the home is located to make sure you are not overpaying for the property. You will want to conduct a title search to find out if there are any liens on the property. Title insurance is not available on auction properties. When you buy a foreclosure auction property, you are responsible for paying off liens and evicting former owners or tenants who may still be living at the property. Federal foreclosure laws protect tenants from foreclosure eviction. A tenant who has a lease may remain on the property through the end of the lease term and for an additional 90 days after they receive a notice of eviction. Tenants without leases may only remain 90 days after receiving an eviction notice. If you live in the area, you should drive by the property to see if it is vacant.

Also, be sure to conduct an inspection on the property the day assigned to inspections. The majority of foreclosure properties are not in good condition so you must leave room in your budget for repairs. For those of you who are handy, you can save money by doing some of the work yourself. If you are the successful bidder, you will be given a deed that should be recorded with the county recorder’s office where the property is located.

REO’S

REO’s are foreclosure properties that did not sell at auctions that the lenders bought back and listed with local Realtors® for sale at discounted prices. Since REO’s offer less risk, REO’s are very popular with first-time home buyers and new investors. They are also sold at or below market values. You can purchase title insurance, and you don’t have to worry about liens. REO’s are vacant so there is no issue of eviction of former owners or tenants. The best way to find REO’s is to work with a local Realtor® or search online at websites like Foreclosure.com. REO’s are advertised in the MLS, and you can also find them on the Internet and advertised in local newspapers. You make an offer the same as you would on a resale property, but it may take up to a week or two to get a response from the lender. You don’t need cash to purchase a REO, but cash is preferred by banks because they know you will be able to close quickly.

Both foreclosure auction properties and REO’s offer investors/buyers the opportunity to buy low, rehab and either sell higher or hold the property and lease it out until the market rebounds. Investors should take advantage of purchasing a foreclosure bargain property while opportunities are still available.

There are a wide variety of tow trucks and towing equipment available in the marketplace today. Because there are so many tow trucks for sale you will need to do your research in order to determine which would be the best type of tow truck for your business. The first thing to consider is what type of towing the vehicle will be used for. Decide if you want to purchase light duty vehicles or heavy duty vehicles.

The majority of tow truck owners prefer flatbed tow trucks for general towing of cars or small pickup trucks. These types of trucks are also the preference of stranded motorists who find themselves in need of a towing service. Flatbed tow trucks contain a large empty bed in the back of the truck which can be inclined and used as a ramp. Once the vehicle is loaded onto the ramp the flatbed levels out and the vehicle can be safely hauled away.

You will need to determine your budget for the purchase of your truck. That will often determine whether you can buy a new vehicle or a used vehicle. A budget will also give you a starting point to begin your search. If you decide to buy a new truck you can search classifieds for „tow trucks for sale“ located in the listing of dealer ads. Learn about the type of engine and other features of the various tow trucks offered by different manufacturers and compare prices. Whether you buy a new or used truck you should know the tow rating of the vehicle. You should also thoroughly check out the strength capacity, suspension capacity, brakes, etc. of the truck.

If you plan to purchase a used truck from either a dealer or an individual you should be sure to get a trusted mechanic to inspect it first. If your mechanic detects any problems with the truck you can possibly get an estimate of repair costs and use this in negotiating a price. If you are purchasing a used truck from a dealer find out if the dealer offers a limited warranty or if the vehicles are being sold in „as is condition.“ Ideally, you want a truck built for durability and performance. You also want to get the best possible truck you can purchase with your allotted funds.

If you prefer to purchase your truck from a private seller check out „tow trucks for sale“ in „for sale by owner“ classifieds. If you buy the truck from a private seller you may be able to purchase an excellent vehicle at a very good price. However, it is very important that you know what you are buying. You don’t want to get stuck with a bad vehicle and forced to pay for repairs that you had not anticipated. Choose your truck carefully and it will serve you well.

Sadly the statistics of repossession are growing with a 65% increase in the amount of homeowners being faced with the horror of losing their homes. The rise in interest rates, which on average boosts mortgage repayments up by £500 per year goes towards these statistics. It really is a grim picture, with over 100,000 homeowners admitting to be in arrears of two months or more and a predicted 19,000 homes expected to fall back into the hands of the mortgage lender due to repossession every year.

For these people life becomes an increasing struggle and an ever growing worry; however there is a solution which should be given some thought that could greatly ease the pressure and worry of repossession. An ethical sell and rent back company could buy your home quickly, and would allow you to remain in it while paying affordable monthly rent to them.

Looking online, you will be able to find ethical specialists in selling and rent back, who could work with you to help you avoid repossession by your lender. As time is crucial when stopping repossession, firms such as these will act in the shortest times possible to buy your home, which then allows you to settle up with your mortgage lender. It is quite usual for the whole process of buying and renting back to be completed in around 7 to 10 days.

The beauty of going with specialists such as this is that you do not have to look around for buyers, there are no chains which might break, any costs are paid by the company, such as solicitor’s fees and of course the biggest bonus is the fact that you are able to remain in the property.

A sell and rent back scheme can work very well for those who have limited options and are faced with imminent repossession of their home. A prime example of this would be if you are so far behind in mortgage arrears that there is no possibility of catching up on the missed repayments. Of course if problems have just arisen with your finances and this is only in the short term, then in the first instance you should contact your lender to see if they are willing to reach an agreement.

If you are considering a sell and rent back option then it is essential to choose a professional company. The company should always have the homeowner’s best interests at heart and work alongside them to reach a financial solution tailored to the needs of the individual and which they can afford.

A specialist would work with you to come to an agreed purchase price along with the monthly rent you will pay to remain in the property. However, it doesn’t stop there as an ethical company will quash proceedings for repossession which may have begun and give advice on the procedures you will have to follow to in relation to the Court. Of course, as with all contracts, you should always read the small print of any contract you are considering before actually signing your home away.
