Building, and affording, a new home - Wed, 18 Aug 2010 07:11:00 +0000

For years, the process to build a new home was simple: hire a builder, apply for a loan and move in. Period.

It's not that easy any longer. Lending institutions have put a clamp on money that used to flow out the door. Appraisals are becoming more of an exact science than an afterthought. Getting the "necessary" value out of a home today to obtain financing has proven more difficult than many people ever remember.

When it comes time to build your home, don't let the "market" scare you away; there are still a number of viable options for you to obtain financing. Most people hire an experienced home builder or general contractor when deciding to build their dream home. There are certain things that you must keep in mind when building a home, some of which are outlined below.

Finding Land / Lot

Finding the right spot to build on can be a daunting task. Many builders have lots available that they will sell you, you can look for undeveloped lots that have flooded the market recently or you can go acquire land that suits your needs. Whatever the case, make sure you consult with your builder and/or architect to make sure that the home you want will fit on the land you're looking at. There is no worse feeling that things not "fitting" together like you'd hope. Finally, consider the purchase price of the land into the final price of your project. There are costs associated with purchasing the land that may play a part in the viability of the project.

Obtaining a Mortgage

Just because you choose to build a home, instead of buying one, doesn't mean you have to seek alternative methods to fund such a purchase. A mortgage is the most traditional method of financing a personal asset, such as a home. Many banks, credit unions, mortgage companies and other lending institutions are available to speak with. Shopping for the package that suits you best will help you discover the lowest rates and payment terms you need.

Making a Down Payment

Just a reminder to keep in mind: many financial institutions will require you to make a down payment on your loan, as a sign of your "devotion" to the project.

Providing your Financial History

Your lender is going to want to know everything about you: your work history, your credit scores, your current debt, your current assets, your payment history, employment records...everything. Be prepared to shell this information out and make it readily available to them.

Paying Property Taxes

Taxes aren't cheap. Finding a lot you love and building the home of your dreams sounds like a great idea, until you get a tax bill that you weren't expecting. Be sure to do researching into what your bill will run each year so you can adequately prepare yourself.

Paying Cash

Very few people can do it, but keep in mind that paying cash for a home will save you a large sum in the long run. As an example, making interest payments on a 5% mortgage for 30 years adds up quickly.

At the end of the day, building a home allows you to get all of the features you desire. Don't rule it out. Many builders are looking for business these days and are willing to make a deal with you. Don't discount your ability to build, finance and afford a new home built just for you.

5 Bills you can Cut to Eliminate More Debt - Tue, 17 Aug 2010 05:17:00 +0000

 
When you think about getting out of debt, the first thing that comes to mind is money and it?s for good reason. You?re going to need money to fight off any debt that you may have. Now, the problem that I see with many people is that think about making more money, rather than cutting costs on bills over at home.

While you can still keep the job that you may have, you?re going to find that when you cut some bills in half or get rid of them, they will really help you with fighting your debt efforts.

I wanted to give you five bills that you can cut today that you more than likely have. By cutting back on these bills each month, you should be able to have money leftover so that you can throw it at all of your debt balances.

#1 Your cable bill: This is honestly a bill that you can get rid of 100%. If you have the Internet, kill the satellite or cable. Instead, subscribe to a Netflix package, where you can stream movies online, as well as TV shows. You can also watch all of your favorite shows on the main networks as well. This should easily save you at least $30-$100 a month.

#2 Your phone: If you have the iPhone or some crazy data plan that is setting you back $115 a month, you should really get rid of this. It doesn?t mean that you shouldn?t have a phone, but instead, think about getting a simple basic plan such as Walmart?s new plan called Common Cents Mobile where you?re charged per minute. This can save $50 - $100.

#3 Eating out: I loved eating at restaurants but I found with my family was that I was spending more than $25+ every time we ate out. Even if we ate at a fast food joint like McDonald?s, we were still spending a lot of money. Make it a habit to eat out maybe once a month and try to cook as many meals at home. Yes, while eating out isn?t really a bill, it can add up without you realizing it.

#4 Your utilities: When you?re not using a light, turn it off. Purchase a programmable thermostat and be sure to program it to use less air / heat when you?re not at home. For example, when I was at work, I would set the house down to 62 in the winter. I would have it boot up to 70 an hour before I got home. Then at night, I would set it back down to 62. I saw a huge different in my heating bills.

#5 Transportation: If you drive to and from work, see if you can car pool with someone. If you?re close enough, think about riding your bike, or even using public transportation. Another way to save is to do all your errands on one day, rather than spread out throughout the week.

When you save money on bills like these, you?re going to find that you can have a good chunk of change leftover. You will find that by eliminating bills like this, you can easily save $200 to even as much as $600! Try out these cost saving measures today and see how much you can save.

Listing Your Home on the Internet - Fri, 13 Aug 2010 05:10:00 +0000

When potential buyers search the Internet for homes, will they see your property listed? The majority of them will be working with a real estate agent but they are also actively involved in the home buying process and will still continue to browse online for new listings they may have missed.

If you have not already done so, find out if your real estate agent sets up buyers with an automatic MLS search which will search for new listings that meet their requirements on a continuous basis. This will provide visibility for your home to numerous potential buyers who may be interested in what you have to offer.

A virtual tour of your home for sale has been proven to increase interest for visitors who are then able to see many of the rooms and get a ?feel? for the house.

Your agent should also post listing information on social media sites such as Facebook and Twitter. A relative or friend of someone seeking a home may see your property listed and pass on the information.

An ad for your home should also be listed in the top real estate advertising sites such as Trulia, Yahoo, Oodle and Zillow. Craigslist, too, is a popular website listing homes for sale.

To see for yourself how your home is listed for sale in the above mentioned major websites, do a search and also ?Google? your street address placing quotation marks around the street such as ?123 Main Street?.

Why Are People Not Buying Homes? - Sat, 07 Aug 2010 09:51:00 +0000

A lot of people in the economic community are wondering if the economy will take a "double-dip" in the latter half of this year. Economic numbers have not been strong to this point. Last quarter's GDP number was revised down and the home sales numbers are heading back down. The expiration of the first time homebuyer credit has not helped the housing market, but not many people chose to take advantage of the program after it was extended.



The reason why people are not buying homes is simply they cannot afford them at today's prices. The combination of the homebuyer credit, low mortgage rates, and low prices made homes affordable for many, and those people purchased homes. There still is a tremendous amount of inventory left in the market, yet the remaining people cannot afford homes at these prices. This means prices have to go lower. Although the government has done a great job supporting the housing market, they cannot continue to do so forever. They have already stopped purchases of mortgage backed securities.


Currently, falling prices have made an excellent opportunity for investors who have purchased homes, condos, and multifamily units and have converted them into rental, income producing properties. The Miami condo market is showing strong signs of recovery as low prices have brought in a wave of all-cash international buyers. Unfortunately, these two groups of individuals are not reliant on the mortgage market for their capital, and would gladly like prices to head lower.


In my opinion, the government will not allow a substantial double dip in home prices, as they will continue to find creative ways to support the housing market. One idea that is being thrown around is relaxing some of the requirements to refinance your loan. Presumably if we have looser requirements for a refinance, people will take advantage to get more money in their pockets. Only time will tell with this and other solutions.



When Should You Go For A Debt Consolidation Program? - Sat, 31 Jul 2010 06:41:00 +0000


A debt consolidation program is normally a plan under which your multiple outstanding loans are paid off in the form of a single loan. It can be an advantageous option for you. However, debt consolidation programs have their downsides as well.

A debt consolidation program can be a useful tool for you in some particular circumstances. When you are paying off a number of loans, your life can become simpler if you combine all your loans into a single loan. Then you just have to make a single monthly payment and receive only a single monthly statement.

Furthermore, you would see that your monthly debt payments would go down because if you enroll into a debt consolidation program, it extends your payments over a prolonged tenure. This indicates that you have to pay a lower amount every month and you would also be able to save some money.

An attractive (and on certain occasions productive) tactic is to implement a debt consolidation program for handling different revolving debts with high interest rates. For instance, you may have multiple outstanding credit card balances carrying high interest rates. Through a debt consolidation program, you can manage those debts and reduce the interest rate or APR (Annual Percentage Rate) which you have been paying. As a whole, credit cards carry higher interest rates and secured loans like home loans bear lesser interest rates.

You should remember that debt consolidation programs can either assist you or harm you. You must be aware that your loan is not relinquished by the program. You are still indebted and ultimately have to repay it.

You should know that extending your payments might lead to higher interest costs. In addition, a home equity loan or line of credit is utilized frequently for consolidating your debts. In case you default, you can lose your home. Credit card providers cannot seize your home. Nevertheless, if you keep your house as security in a debt consolidation plan, then your house is a target of foreclosure.





Graphical Representaion of Mortgage Rates - Fri, 23 Jul 2010 09:20:00 +0000

One of the most important factors for any home buyer is the effect of mortgage rates. This is one major factor that we often overlook. During considering the housing's equation, monthly payment is calculated on the basis of mortgage rate. The concept is very simple. The interest rate is directly proportional to the monthly payment.

Given below is a graph that shows the 30 Year Fixed rate mortgage since 1971, as obtained from Freddie Mac's data.

How Reading the Wall Street Journal Helped my Financial Lif... - Fri, 09 Apr 2010 07:10:00 +0000

I have had a Wall Street Journal subscription ever since the first year of business school, when one of our professors instilled in us the prudence of reading the Wall Street Journal every day. The Wall Street Journal is something special for a business manager, investor, stock market and finance guy. It is the last word on how the market is moving, and often, it is also the first word that makes it move. A few words of praise in the Wall Street Journal can hike up the stock price of a company, helping it make millions in a day; one negative sentiment, and a stock can drop many fold and destroy a business. The Wall Street Journal has an immense power on the economy of the US and thereby on the whole world; no other magazine is a kingmaker like the Wall Street Journal.

I realized this power of the Wall Street Journal when I first started investing in the NYSE in a small scale. At that time I was a young and enthusiastic student, still fresh from the classroom, and I used to do a lot of research on companies that I would then invest small amounts of chump change in. Once we had a bet, just between friends, on who could predict the best mover in a day?s trade, just by doing research. So we all did diligent research, and I found a stock that seemed to me to be trading lower than it should, given its potential. I found the stock to be very interesting, and not only did I bet on it, I put in a couple hundred dollars ? all my savings ? on it.

I lost the bet, because on the day of reckoning, my stock did not move very well compared to some of the more well known regular movers my friends had chosen.

Then, a few days later, the Wall Street Journal came out with a report on that stock. Someone must have noticed what I did, because the report was pretty enthusiastic and recommended an immediate Buy. The next morning, that stock started trading like crazy, and by noontime, I had gained quite a bit of money. At the end of the day, when trading ended, that little stock had skyrocketed into a 200% gain, and I had made my first solid investment. I felt like Warren Buffett on one of his good days, and was forever 'worshipful' of the great WSJ.

That?s the power the Wall Street Journal has on the market. I am sure there were other investors who had found that stock as I had done, and had invested in it, hoping to make money on it. Some of these may have been reporters of lesser journals even, who had probably written good stuff about it. But it took the Wall Street Journal to say something good about it before the market took heed of the stock and gave it a rise.
