Tax Credit Almost Over

0 comments

It's crunch time for those who are looking to take advantage of the extended Tax Credit.  ALL contracts must be in and signed by all partied by April 30th.  

IF you are one of these people and you have been  doing your homework on the market, then you still have time before you put in your final offer.  But don't think that 2 months is plenty of time because if you are not offering the exact asking price you must be prepared for a count-offer or 2, which can extend the process longer thanexpected.

If you have been interested in taking advantage of the credit, but just haven't found the time to really start looking for a place, then START NOW.  You still have time to find a great property, but time is of the essence.  If you need help getting started, call a Realtor in your area. 

If your in the Oxford, MS area please call me, Brents Herron, with any questions regarding the tax credit or any thing else that involves Real Estate.

Using a Real Estate Agent to Sell Your House

0 comments

Selling your home can be a long and complicated practice if you take on the task by yourself.  Using a professional Realtor can drastically improve a homeowner's chance of getting what they want for their property.  Here are a few resources we have to offer homeowners:

MLS:  The Multiple Listing Service is a database that other buyers and Realtors can access to more easily find a listing.  

Industry Connections & Additional Exposure:  A good agent will use his/her resources outside the firm to get your property extra exposure.  Whether it be on a the agent's website or in a magazine, a professional will almost always have outside resources to promote your property.

Emotional Objectivity:  A professional Real Estate Agent can assess an offer more objectively than the homeowner, since the agent does not have any emotional ties to the house.

Pre-Screened Buyers:  An agent can also screen prospective buyers to make sure they are pre-approved for a loan.  This simple capability can save you, the homeowner, valuable time.

The transition from renting to owning is a big step for anyone deciding to make the leap. One of the few key benefits home-ownership offers is tax deductions on a mortgage interest payments as well as Homestead-tax-exemption.  With these tax savings you can often realize a greater return than if you were renting.  According to the Lafayette County Tax Assessor :

Homestead Exemption is available, upon request, to homeowners who reside and pay all local and state taxes in the taxing district. 
There are two types of Homestead Exemptions available: Regular - allows up to $300.00 credit on a home with a $75,000 or more appraised value.Special - is for residents who are 65 years of age before January 1 of each year or who are 100% disabled. This exempts up to $75,000 of the appraised value.

Help for House Flippers

0 comments

In an effort to get as many foreclosures off the market, the FHA has lifted some restrictions on investors who wish to "flip" a house. Now private companies that assess and purchase foreclosures  are encouraged to buy more foreclosed properties and sell them to buyers using an FHA loan.  Of course some rules apply, a house cannot be flipped for more than a 20% profit and this exemption only lasts a year.  This is a great opportunity if you have an interest in getting into house flipping.
