A recent expansion of the government's MAKING HOME AFFORDABLE program now allows borrowers who are current but up to 125 percent underwater on their mortgage, and have mortgages currently owned or guaranteed by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to refinance those loans according to the terms of the Home Affordable Refinance program established earlier this year.

Why You Should Use A Realtor
|
The buying of real estate is the largest financial investment most people make. Whether buying for the first time or selling a family estate, Realtors® take a complicated maze of requirements and, with knowledge of the local real estate market, simplify the process. They also maximize the profit.
Realtors uniquely understand legal issues that affect real estate transactions, and they’re trained to negotiate the best possible prices and terms in the contract. Perhaps more importantly, they offer professional advice and objective insight into a process that, for many, is very emotional. The fact of the matter is this: buyers take the greatest liability in not using a Realtor - and so only a foolish or uniformed buyer would go at it alone (especially given the fact that Realtors are paid by the seller, so in a sense, the service is generally "free" for buyers, less a small transaction fee generally less than $300 paid only at closing.) So sellers who are motivated will want to market to buyers who are qualified, ready and able to buy - in other words, buyers who are working with Realtors.
On the nuts-and-bolts level, Realtors have a complete list of area homes for sale, as well as all the data buyers need to know; they stay abreast of changing market conditions that can affect local real estate prices. Realtors can also recommend reliable local lenders, real estate evaluators and insurers to help the transaction process proceed smoothly.
Why a Realtor?
Realtors adhere to a strict code of ethics approved by the National Board of Realtors (NAR). The code assumes that people conducting a real estate transaction must adhere to a higher set of standards that those people working in other business arenas. Realtors are, according to the Realtor Code of Ethics and Standards of Practice, "zealous to maintain and improve the standards of their calling."
The Florida Association of Realtors, the voice for real estate in Florida, provides programs, services, continuing education, research and legislative representation to its 125,000 members in 67 boards/associations. |

Homebuyer Tax Credit Extended!! |
The $8,000 first-time homebuyer tax credit, which was slated to expire Nov. 30, 2009, will be extended for contracts signed before May 1, 2010 that close before July 1, 2010. First-time buyers, who are in the process of closing now, no longer have to worry about qualifying for the $8,000 tax credit if they do end up closing after the Nov. 30 deadline. The new legislation also increases the income limit for couples with income up to $225,000, a nearly $55,000 increase above the current level. Buyers who already own a home are also now eligible for a tax credit and the purchase of a home. The $6,500 maximum credit will be available to existing homeowners who have lived in their current residence for five of the prior eight years. The legislation does set forth several provision including, limiting eligibility for existing homeowners to homes worth $800,000 or less, as well as making both credits available only for primary residences, not second homes or investment properties. The legislation will take effect November 7, 2009 and is not retroactive. The original first-time homebuyer tax credit jump-started the housing market, driving home sales to the highest level in more than two years! |
