Thinking of Listing Your Property

April 2, 2009 by kenduncan  
Filed under News / Comments

I am actively involved seeking suitable properties for investors from different areas of the United States, South America and Europe.

In my experience, most buyers rely on a photograph to get an initial visual impression of the house listed in the MLS system. Regrettably, in many cases, there are either no photographs at all or they are of very poor quality and this may actually hinder the sale of the property. In this current market, with so many properties being listed for sale, the listing display needs to be full of accurate and useful information - plus images which will give the potential buyer a real idea of what’s on offer.

When searching out and listing properties for my clients, I go the extra mile to ensure that their requirements are fulfilled – that way, I don’t waste anyone’s time. I take pride in being thorough and will do my utmost to provide as much information as it is possible – whether that be for a $50k Condo or a $2.5 million luxury villa.

The Wall Street Journal Says “Its a good time to buy”

April 1, 2009 by kenduncan  
Filed under News / Comments

Six reasons why it’s still a good time to buy

NEW YORK – March 31, 2009 – The housing market is looking healthier. Here are six reasons why now is the time to jump into the market.

1. Uncle Sam is willing to help. First-time buyers (defined as anyone who hasn’t owned a home in the last three years) are entitled to a maximum $8,000 tax credit; interest rates are at record lows; and the Federal Reserve is doing its best to make mortgage loans available.

2. People have to live somewhere. About 800,000 new households are formed each year in this country, ensuring that the housing market will tighten, even if the economy doesn’t soar.

3. Borrowers leverage their investment. If you put $10,000 into the stock market and it earns 10 percent, you’ve earned $1,000. If you put $10,000 down on a home and its values increases 10 percent, you’ve made $10,000.

4. When prices come back up, you’ll have instant equity. In parts of the country where foreclosures have driven down prices, better times will mean the price of the home you buy will rise rapidly.

5. Mortgage costs stay the same. If you get a fixed-rate mortgage, the monthly payment stays the same – while everything else, including rent, goes upward.

6. You own it.
There is something comforting in the notion that your home is your own. You can paint it any color you want, let the dog run in the back yard and hang a swing for the kids in the front.

Want to learn more about the home buyer tax credit? You can sign up for NAR’s upcoming Webinar, “Build Your Business Using the Improved Home Buyer Tax Credit” set for April 28.  For more information click here.

South Florida Sales Up 27% From 2007

South Florida property market is booming again

Wall Street Journal

January 26 2008
Home-Sale Numbers Heating Up in Florida

 Existing-home sales nationwide showed surprising strength in December, as the thaw in sales heated up in Florida. Resales of single-family homes in the Sunshine State surged 27% last month compared with December 2007 -- the fourth straight year-over-year increase for monthly existing-home sales, the Florida Association of Realtors said Monday in its year-end report. Resales of condominiums statewide rose 12% from a year ago.

But there’s a silver lining for buyers in the form of “unprecedented discounts on any and all residential product along the South Florida coast,” Mr. Zalewski said. Luxury units with granite countertops and Jacuzzi baths are fetching pennies on the dollar. In Miami-Dade’s upscale Brickell Avenue neighborhood, a two-bedroom apartment that sold for $700,000 in 2006 is now going for $110,000. Similar deals are available on single family homes.
