Real Estate is a major issue today in 2009. I have found numerous tips for buyers and sellers for 2009 when it comes to foreclosures and your real estate investment. Another thing homeowners and home buyers should be careful of is buying real estate in California at this time. Real Estate in California has declined over 25% and Florida as well. Now is the great time to buy in these areas because your real estate should appreciate, but it is still very risky.
Tips:
- 1. Cash is your friend. The more money you can set aside and save for your down payment, the better. You will have smaller monthly payments and you will be charged less interest.
- Negotiate!!! The real estate market is a mess, so be sure to negotiate on your terms whether you want extras to come in your house like appliances.
- Make sure you have good credit. Start repaying debt and building better credit.
- Look at why the real estate is the price it is.
- Look at many opportunities.
- Look for foreclosed real estate
- Is this foreclosed property owned by the bank or by the seller? Can you get a discount from the lender for paying off the property? Is there anything wrong with the real estate?
7. Last but not least, RESEARCH! Know what you are talking about and know what you are looking for and what you want. Knowledge is power and power is key if you want to buy a home and keep it.
