Benefits Of Hiring A Real Estate Agent
November 26th, 2009
James Gunaseelan asked:
Are you contemplating hiring a real estate agent? If so, the pros and cons of doing so are probably weighing on your mind. The fact of the matter is that there are benefits of having an agent on your side, but at the same time there are drawbacks that you may also want to concern yourself with.
With so many real estate options, it is crucial to employ the best. Each of our real estate agents have a proven track record when it comes to home buying, home selling and the world of real estate. In the ever competitive world of real estate agents and the burgeoning climate realtors and home sales, local knowledge and professional acumen is what we offer to each and every client. With every burgeoning real estate market comes a high number of real estate agents. Knowing which of these realtors to select is may just seem like yet another decision in the home buying process, but it is also one of the most critical ones you will make. Real estate agents should have knowledge of their chosen region, proven track records in the competitive world of realty and a professional acumen.Showcasing homes is the business of realtors the world over but, as with any business, there will be those who consider it a passion to be the best real estate agent in the region. After making the decision to buy or indeed sell a home, selecting a real estate agent is next. Making that easier for you is what we want and what we know we can deliver.
So what is the biggest benefit of hiring a real estate agent? Before you can answer this question you need to consider if you are a buyer or seller. If you are buying a home, the biggest benefit of working with an agent is their experience. They not only have experience helping people to find properties in your area, but they also have experience with negotiating. Both of these things will help you to become much better qualified as a buyer.
On the other side of things, most sellers use a real estate agent. The reason for this is quite simple: this cuts back on a lot of the work that the seller will have to do on their own. When a seller works with an agent they have the ability to lean on them for everything that needs to get done. This includes finding potential buyers, marketing, open houses, negotiations, closing procedure, and much more. Selling a home by owner has its financial benefits, but it also means that you will be responsible for a lot more work. Most sellers decide that hiring a real estate agent is a much better choice.
There is no denying that some people feel that hiring a real estate agent is a dumb idea. In fact, it all depends on who you talk to. Some buyers like to do things on their own and the same holds true for some sellers. But guess what? You need to make the decision that is best for you; even if everybody around you has done differently. If you think that working with a real estate agent is the best option, you should do so.
Overall, the majority of people agree that buying or selling with a real estate agent on board is much less stressful. Do you agree with them?

Seven Ways to Flip a Property
November 26th, 2009
Attorney William asked:
Flipping” is the buzzword of the year in real estate – flipping books, flipping articles in the newspaper, and even flipping shows on TV! What is flipping, how does it work and how you can profit?
Flipping simply means buying a property and reselling it quickly, as opposed to holding on to a property long term as a rental. Flipping comes in several varieties, most of which are legal and profitable, some of which are not.
Flip Strategy #1: Buy, Fix and Flip
Let’s start with the most common form – the good, old “fix ‘n flip”. This process involves buying a property that needs work, fixing it up, then selling on the “retail” market, that is, to a person who will live in the property. This method is tried and true, and works very well. You can easily make $15 – $50k on one deal, depending on your market and how good you are at finding bargains.
The danger in fix and flips is either paying too much or underestimating repairs. Be very conservative in your fix-up costs and length of time it may take to resell. Also, make sure you include in your analysis the cost of paying a real estate agent to sell the property.
Flip Strategy #2: Buy, Refi & Lease/Option
Rather than sell the fixed up property for all cash, sell for terms. Once you have completed the rehab, refinance the property at its new appraised value. If you did the math correctly, you should have little or no money in the deal. Sell the property on a lease with option to buy. The rent payment from your tenant/buyer should cover your mortgage payment (if not, consider an interest-only or adjustable rate loan that is fixed for 3 years). When your tenant exercises his option to purchase, you reap a larger profit, since you don’t have to pay a broker’s fee. If the tenant exercises his option after 12 months, you benefit from a lower capital gains tax rate.
Flip Strategy #3: Buy & Flip “As Is”
Don’t like to do fix-up work? Consider selling the property “as is” as a light fixer upper. If the local real estate market is hot, you should be able to sell the property in poor condition just a little below market. This is especially the case with houses in “transitioning” neighborhoods. Make sure, of course, that you acquire the property sufficiently cheap enough that you can sell it below market quickly and still profit.
Flip Strategy #4: Wholesale
Strategy #1, the fix and flip, is very popular, which means there are a lot of investors looking for rehabs. You can buy the property cheap and sell it for just a few thousand dollars more to another investor without doing any work. You won’t make nearly as much as the rehabber, but you will realize your profit quickly.
Flip Strategy #5: Pre-Construction
In very hot real estate markets, prices are appreciating as much as 2% per month. If you time things right, you can put a contract on a pre-construction house or condominium, then flip it to someone else when the development is complete. If it takes 12 months for the development to be complete, and the condo price is $500,000, you could make $100,000 or more in one year! Of course, the opposite is also true – you could end up losing money if the local economy tanks and you end up with a worthless condo that you can’t sell for more than you paid. Use this approach very carefully…
Flip Strategy #6: Scouting
The Scout is an information gatherer, so not technically a property flipper. He is the “bird dog” who finds potential deals and sells the information to other investors. Many people get started as a Scout for other investors because it does not take any cash or prior knowledge to look for distressed properties. The Scout finds a property for sale, gathers the necessary information, and then provides this information to investors for a fee. The fee will vary depending on the price of the property and the profit potential. The Scout can expect to make five hundred to one thousand dollars each time he provides information that leads to a purchase by another investor.
Flip Strategy #7: Illegal Flipping
OK, I am not advocating this approach, because it is illegal. Illegal property-flipping schemes work as follows: unscrupulous investors buy cheap, run-down properties in mostly low-income neighborhoods. They do shoddy renovations to the properties and sell them to unsophisticated buyers at inflated prices. In most cases, the investor, appraiser and mortgage broker conspire by submitting fraudulent loan documents and a bogus appraisal. The end result is a buyer that paid too much for a house and cannot afford the loan. Since many of these loans are federally insured, the government authorities have investigated this practice and arrested many of the parties involved. As a result, the public perceives is flipping to be illegal.
The fact is, “flipping” – as I described in the beginning of this article – is NOT illegal. Loan fraud in the process of flipping is what is illegal, so don’t confuse the two. The other six ways to flip are very legal, very ethical and very profitable!

Should you Rent to Own Real Estate?
November 21st, 2009
John asked:
With the increasingly popular of rent to own real estate many property owners find it is a way for them to sell the property they have now instead of later on. It can easily become a burden for them to make the ongoing payments while they are waiting for someone to buy it. This pertains to both commercial and residential property out there. The real estate market has certainly suffered in the tough economic times out there.
The owner of the property retains the ownership of it until it is paid for in full with this type of offer. They aren’t responsible for common repairs because they aren’t the landlord. This is great news for those that don’t want to continue worrying about having to cover costs related to that particular type of property. The one downside is that depending on the cost of the property involved it can take many years before it is paid for in full.
For someone that is tired of paying rent, rent to own a property is a great way to invest their money instead of paying for something that they are only temporarily using. They have the ability and the right to fix up the property any way that they would like to. When you are simply renting from someone you can’t do so without their permission. This means that you aren’t able to enjoy the properly to the fullest in a manner that you will be completely happy with.
The process of buying property through a lender can be time consuming and difficult. You have to come up with a large amount of money down in many instances. Most consumers that want to buy properly can’t do so right now. With the rent to own option though you can get the properly you want now instead of having to save up for a down payment and for closing costs for a couple of years first.
With the rent to own option you don’t have to jump through hoops either when it comes to issues such as passing inspections. This can be one of the most frustrating parts of buying a home when a bank is lending you the money. When you rent to own a property, you get to decide if the property is worthy of you investing in. Of course you do have the option to pay for an inspection to be done before you commit to it as well.
You may feel that you can’t buy property if you don’t have credit or your credit is very poor. However, you can do so through a rent to own option instead of going the traditional route. Some owner’s of such property will require a credit check but most of them don’t. As long as you have a steady work history and you are willing to sign a contract they will work with you.
As long as it is done correctly, rent to own real estate can be a win/win situation for everyone involved. Take the time to talk at length with the seller of such property. Make sure you are both on the same page and have the same goals in mind. They are going to want to make sure you are going to make the monthly payments as decided upon. You want to make sure you are getting property that is worth the asking price. You also want to make sure that the written contract of the rent to own property is in great detail. This way both parties will be covered for the duration of the agreement until the property has been completely paid for.

Buying a Property in New Zealand
November 18th, 2009
Les Calvert asked:
An island nation always has a special charm in the hearts of people who don’t have the luxury of living at such a paradisiacal place. New Zealand is one such country that oozes resplendence at every step. With nearest neighbour Australia, New Zealand is not a part of Australian continent. In fact, the country belongs to the largely submerged continent of Zealandia, which stretches from the north of New Caledonia to the south of New Zealand’s Sub-Antarctic islands. New Zealand is comprised of three main islands besides several other small islands that enrich the topography of the country with some breathtaking views and inspiring scenery.
New Zealand Highlights
New Zealand is blessed with some of the choicest nature’s bounties, with pristine golden beaches, snow-capped alpine mountains, crystal-clear river waters, glacier-fed lakes, and abundant adventure activities you can indulge in. This means the country is agog with tourists all the year round offering numerous opportunities to earn handsome rental income from apartments and other vacation properties alongside some of the most-visited spots in New Zealand.
The inviting kiwi weather is an added incentive to visit the country. The outdoors of the country is ideal to indulge in plenty of activities, like bungee jumping, scuba diving, zorbing, mountaineering, kayaking, surfing etc.
The natural attractions of the country are enough to lure holidaymakers, retirees, and expatriates who look for real estate investment opportunities in the country. In fact, in addition to the vacation property, second-homes are also extremely popular for the property investors due to New Zealand’s favourable living conditions, cost of living, and the rosy projections of the nation’s economy.
If you think that New Zealand is just about adventure sports, think again. For the country has a rich history and tradition of the native Maori people, as depicted through several museums and art galleries. New Zealand also has a rich treasure of flora and fauna wildly found in the National Parks and the Ocean.
The country is extremely well connected with the rest of the world through airways and seaways. The internal transport of the country depends on efficient air, road, rail, and sea routes for a variety of commuters.
New Zealand is every bit a modern country having plenty of education opportunities for lower and higher level of students. All the modern amenities, like nightclubs, discos, pubs, restaurants, cafes, theatres, cinemas etc. can be easily accessed through major kiwi cities.
The nation’s economy is also booming with Agriculture playing a major role in its upswing.
Overall, New Zealand offers one of the best places to invest in real estate. Moreover, the British investors would love the place inhabited by majority English-speaking friendly people.
Property Market in New Zealand
In recent times, New Zealand property prices have hit the roof with surging demand from the European investors, particularly the British real estate investors. This has resulted in a slowdown in the New Zealand property market. And this also means that property is now much more affordable for the budget investors. The growth is definitely on the wane and the prices are dropping, yet no one is discounting New Zealand’s property potential.
Though low, the prices are still on a higher plank. For instance, luxury apartments in the capital city, Wellington, are highly priced at £400K+, and over in Auckland, it’s even more. However, small accommodation is reasonably priced in major kiwi cities. For instance, you can make off-plan investment in apartments in Auckland for £60K+.
The Studio Apartments in cities, like Auckland, are a safe investment. They guarantee regular rental income through people who often flock the cities for better job prospects. And with the high expectations from the nation’s economy in the coming years, major pressure has to be borne by the housing industry to feed the demand for more accommodation.
The current period is favourable for any kind of property investment in New Zealand. An astute investor will exploit the prevailing lower prices of New Zealand property, and make a killing in times to come.
The kiwi legal system is identical with the British Common Law system. Resultantly, trading in property is largely hassle-free in New Zealand. Moreover, there is no stamp duty to pay on property purchased in New Zealand.
It seems that owning a property in New Zealand is cakewalk for those who possess the required finance. However, for those who have limited budget, there are lots of financial institutions in New Zealand that offer lower interest rates on mortgages in New Zealand.
The hottest locations for property investment on the North Island include Wellington, Tauranga, and Auckland. The South Island has Nelson, Queenstown, and Christchurch as jewels in the real estate crown.
The potential real estate investors in New Zealand would do well if they hire a specialist to deal with all the legalities and other formalities required for ownership of property in the country. After all, you don’t expect to be ripped off your hard-earned money just because of some negligence on your part.

How to Sell Your Property Quicly, For Cash in Hand
November 18th, 2009
Oliver Wingrove asked:
Selling property can be a lengthy and complex process. In addition, fees for solicitors and estate agents can eat into profits, or keep you from making any money at all. If you need to sell quickly, or your potential profit margin is already minimal, then you might want to contact a company like us that specializes in making cash offers for property. There is an application process, but we can frequently provide an initial cash offer within 24 hours. This initial offer is usually a preliminary estimate of your property’s value, but it will provide you with a general idea of the potential selling price. If you decide to move forward with the process, we will send a qualified professional to value your property and assess its condition. We will then make a final offer. We can usually complete the sale within a few weeks, which means that you can have cash in hand sooner than you might expect.
Why sell to us rather than attempting to market your property through a traditional estate agent? There are numerous answers to that question. First, we can facilitate a quick sale. Rather than spending weeks or months marketing your property, wasting time on back and forth negotiations, you can have an offer within just days, and a sale within a few weeks. Second, we can save you the expense of an estate agent’s fee. Not only does this put more money in your pocket, it also makes it easier to assess any potential profit or loss that may result from the sale. Third, we are interested in all types of properties in all conditions. The state of the property is taken into account when we make our offer, so a sale is possible even if it is in less than perfect shape. This can spare you the time and expense of trying to rehab the property to make it more marketable.
Sometimes, your life circumstances may change dramatically, and we can offer you an option to help minimize stress and inconvenience. If you need to relocate due to work or family obligations, and don’t want the burden of trying to sell your property long distance, then we are an ideal solution. If you are getting divorced, and both you and your spouse want to end the process quickly, then we can help facilitate a settlement from the sale of any joint property. If you have inherited property, and do not want the burden on maintaining it, then we can make an offer within only days, giving you cash in hand in a matter of weeks.
We are also the ideal solution if you are in need of a large amount of cash relatively quickly. You can sell the property, making it possible to cash into any equity that you might have, and then access the option to continue living in the property as a renter. This allows you to remain in your home with an option to buy it back when your financial situation improves.

We can usually complete the sale within a few weeks, which means that you can have cash in hand sooner than you might expect.
Why sell to us rather than attempting to market your property through a traditional estate agent? There are numerous answers to that question. First, we can facilitate a quick sale. Rather than spending weeks or months marketing your property, wasting time on back and forth negotiations, you can have an offer within just days, and a sale within a few weeks. Second, we can save you the expense of an estate agent’s fee. Not only does this put more money in your pocket, it also makes it easier to assess any potential profit or loss that may result from the sale. Third, we are interested in all types of properties in all conditions. The state of the property is taken into account when we make our offer, so a sale is possible even if it is in less than perfect shape. This can spare you the time and expense of trying to rehab the property to make it more marketable.
Sometimes, your life circumstances may change dramatically, and we can offer you an option to help minimize stress and inconvenience. If you need to relocate due to work or family obligations, and don’t want the burden of trying to sell your property long distance, then we are an ideal solution. If you are getting divorced, and both you and your spouse want to end the process quickly, then we can help facilitate a settlement from the sale of any joint property. If you have inherited property, and do not want the burden on maintaining it, then we can make an offer within only days, giving you cash in hand in a matter of weeks.
We are also the ideal solution if you are in need of a large amount of cash relatively quickly. You can sell the property, making it possible to cash into any equity that you might have, and then access the option to continue living in the property as a renter. This allows you to remain in your home with an option to buy it back when your financial situation improves.
