What is with all the FEAR ,Republicans warn of Deficits/ Spending,Experts say economy Is Improving All Fronts?

April 20th, 2010

For starters the Tea party Movement claims to be protesting higher taxes, Only 3% of Tea Party members poled are aware that taxes have been lowered for 95% of working families. Financial experts / Wall Street Brokers say that all indicators point to a strong economic recovery in the next 2 years! " The #s dont lie". Even the housing market is expected to come back strong in 2011, some saying there will even be a housing shortage! Are the Republicans just using the Tea Party and Fox news to put out Scary prediction just to get Democrats voted out before things get better so they can take credit for the recovery like GW Bush did following Clinton?

The Jobs will follow as the Economy regains strength, After the Damage done By Bush,The fact that the economy is already showing signs of recovery, WITH "NO cooperation from the Republicans" Some experts say it will take 100 years to completely reverse the harm Bush and the Republicans have done

My favorite line has to be "taxes weren’t lowered, they just weren’t raised (yet)". Which goes completely against what the Tea Baggers have been saying, that Obama started raising taxes before he was even in office, and that the government has been rooting through their wallets for over a year now.

Listing ad removed from bulk feed months ago, but it still appears on Yahoo?

March 31st, 2010

We send a bulk feed to Yahoo Real Estate every night. One real estate listing in that feed was removed last September, but the listing will not leave Yahoo. According to the info on this site, individual users are told to tell their bulk feed provider to remove the info from the feed and the listing will go away. In this case, it is not true and Yahoo has removed the option to contact them as a member (though they rarely answered anyway). Perhaps someone else out there has a clue what we can do to force Yahoo to remove the old property that has not been for sale in 6 months.

http://realestate.yahoo.com/Illinois/Schaumburg/631-duxbury-ln:3b1bfa1f7a15e4a96e8efaa9166c489c

There is a Yahoo Team member who oversees each of the different categories on the site. But none of them seem excited about the Real Estate section. All the effort goes into Finance, Sports, and Shine.

You can call 866-562-7219. That number is only for paying customers but that should include you. It is the Customer Service desk.

help.yahoo.com is worth trying. But they don’t answer you very explicitly. So explain your problem as clearly as you did in this question.

realestate short sale?

March 25th, 2010

has anyone done this short sale thing? I need to know process,procedure…were u scammed? screwed? I need advice. Firm wants power of attorney over the proprty..is that a normal procedure? what about putting the home in a trust fund…what does that mean?

What you meantioned I’ve never heard of. Do NOT give anyone power of attorney. That is crazy!! And why would you want to put it in a trust?

If your goal is to get rid of the property, talk to an attorney and an accountant to understand the legal and tax ramifications.

I’ve done several short sales for clients and recommend you connect with a realtor who is knowledgable in Short Sales. She/he can get you in contact with an accountant and lawyer, if you don’t know of one.

Good luck!

How are Banksters doing lately with all that Frozen Assets in RealEstate?

March 9th, 2010

Local and State and Federal tax plus lawn care and maintanance must be taking its toll. The cold weather makes it harder to take care of abandon property in particular since the pipes can break if left unchecked.

They are sitting on them until the market really improve. See what happened to Silverado S&L back in the 1990’s. In the late 90’s, the assets were sold for a huge profit.

how to become a realestate agent?

March 5th, 2010

I want to become a real estate agent, but I am a little confused here on how to start. Should I start taking the Realestate course, or anything else I need to do before that? Can anyone help please?

Obviously, you start by taking the real estate courses.

But before, get prepared by making a list or people you know who are likely to buy or sell homes in the near future (within the next five years, by concentrating on those who will do so in the next year). If you can’t find at least 100 distinct places, then don’t bother.

can you get out of a HOA if it wasn’t known by realestate when contract was drawn? found by title search?

February 25th, 2010

we are under contract to buy a house. When realestate showed house it says no HOA’s on flyer and agent said there wasn’t any. when title search was done it was found,but the hoa it’s listed doesn’t have it on their paper agent said. can we get removed from the hoa. we really want the house but not HOA

HOAs are pretty powerful, I doubt you can op out.

However if you still have not bought the house you most likely can get out of the contract and get your deposit ot earnest money back.

how can i run a realestate website successfully?

February 19th, 2010

real estate for selling and buying properties.. i have started a website www.keralarealmarket.com , now i want to have more traffic into that web page and i expect income from both advertisements and brokerage for selling and buying of properties by our clients. how can i run the site successfully?

I have no idea where you are located, as the place names are unfamiliar to me.

However, there are a few things that are important for a real estate website:

1. Provide the opportunity for website visitors to find properties they are interested in. I visited your site and it seems that you are already doing this. However, if it is possible to provide photos, this would be an enhancement. Website visitors like to see photos of properties. And make the photos descriptive and pretty.

2. I’m not sure what percentage of people where you are look at the internet for real estate, but if you want to get your website on the first page of results for your area, look into Pay per click or sponsored advertising. To get in natural results takes time, at least 6 months or even longer. Study Search Engine Optimization (SEO) so that you can make your website search engine friendly as well. Also use your domain name in your advertising (in the newspaper or elsewhere) so that before your website shows up in search engine results, people begin to become aware of your website.

3. Provide a sign in sheet for website visitors to request more information. This is essential so that you can capture contacts and follow up with them. And do follow up. Create a dialogue the same as you would in person. Many people who visit websites for real estate in the US are "just looking". Thus make your sign in sheet voluntary to avoid a lot of fake email addresses and contact information. If your sign in sheet is voluntary, you can interpret visitor sign ins as possibly being "almost" ready to purchase. Sometimes you have to follow up with people for a long time before they are ready to purchase.

4. Create a newsletter or something with good information about real estate in general or in your area that you can send to your contacts each month. For those who are not yet ready to purchase, this will remind them of you so when they are ready, they will contact you (hopefully).

Getting real estate business for the internet is a tricky thing. The most important thing is to give people the information they want, follow up quickly and keep in touch with the people who do sign in at your website.

Good luck.

Is having termites a valid reason to back out of a contract when buying a house?

February 17th, 2010

My realestate agent says the termites are not a "major defect".

You’re real estate agent’s lying to you. They just want their commission. Look, here in California it’s the law that the house must have a termite inspection before the close of escrow. Also, the seller is responsible for making all repairs. Don’t get suckered into buying something that’s not livable.

I need to find a realestate web site showing the sales history of a home to compare to its current listing?

February 17th, 2010

So I can compare what it sold for previously and when, what they have updated and what they are asking for it now, so I know what to offer. Thanks

That is in the MLS, you agent can get it, it is not public.
