Story from Craig Donofrio, 10 Home Buying Costs You Need to Know About, talks about first time buyers and their fees ... If you’re a first-time home buyer, you might get a little queasy when the last line of your good-faith estimate comes in at several thousand dollars. And after the color returns to your face, you might also be a little more than perplexed by some of those fees. Knowing what you’re paying for—like these 10 common costs—can ease that check-writing pain. 1. Earnest money To prove you’re “earnest” in your purchase commitment, expect to plunk down 1% to 2% of the total purchase price as an earnest money deposit. This amount can change depending on market factors. If demand in your area is high, a seller could expect a larger deposit. If the market is cold, a seller could b...

Article in the current issue of Housing Trends eNewsletter from Angela Colley, 5 Tax Mistakes New Homeowners Make, discusses tax issues for new homeowners ... Few people look forward to tax season, and when you’re a new homeowner in Metamora MI, filing can be even more daunting. Suddenly, you have new forms to fill out and more potential for making a mistake. But taxes aren't all bad; homeowners get more tax benefits than renters. And if you can avoid these five common mistakes, you’ll survive tax season. 1. Not tracking your home improvement expenses If you bought a fixer-upper and you've put money into improving your home, you should be keeping a detailed record of your expenses. Some home improvements—like installing energy-efficient features or building an entrance ramp—may qualify ...

Metamora Michigan Home Values, How to Increase Yours! ...These tips are to help increase your homes value and get your home sold in the fastest time possible based on our experience working with home owners who have sold their homes and feedback from home buyers that buy homes. This weeks tip: Declutter If you are thinking about selling within the next year, start this now. I have seen buyers walk through homes that have too much stuff everywhere and comment to me that it just looks messy. When a buyer thinks a home is messy, they figure that there are other problems with the home as well even if there is not! This is something that even I deal with sometimes as we just get so "used to things" laying around that we do not even see them anymore. They almost become invisible! Do declutter...

This story from Catey Hill, The $25,000 Mortgage Mistake Nearly Half of Borrowers Make, talks about how many people pay to much for their mortgage ... Did you pay too much for your mortgage? If you’re like millions of Americans, the answer is probably yes — and that means you may be throwing tens of thousands of dollars of your hard-earned money at the bank, when you might not need to. A report released Tuesday by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau finds that almost half (47%) of Americans don’t shop around for a mortgage when they purchase a home. “Consumers put great thought into the choice of a home, but the mortgage process continues to be intimidating,” CFPB Director Richard Cordray said in a statement.   If you don’t shop around for a mortgage, you’re probably leaving free m...

If you tried to sell your Lapeer County Lake house last year with no success, AND you were a fairly high priced listing, do not despair. It was not your house- it was the market. In 2014 there were only 4 lakefront sales over $600,000 and all 4 were on acreage. 2 of those were on major acreage with private lakes- 40 acre and 90 acre parcels. And by private lake I mean their own private lake. The other 2 were a house and 9 acres on Lake Metamora and a house on 5 acres on Lake Lapeer. Only 2 houses sold in the $400,000’s- both on Lake Lapeer. This is better than 2013 when the price of lake houses in Lapeer County topped out at $477,500. So far in 2015 there has been 1 sold on Lake Lapeer for just under $400,000 and 2 pending at just under $400,000 and in the mid $500,000’s. The rise in p...

Lapeer Michigan home values, how to increase yours! ... These tips are to help increase your homes value and get your home sold in the fastest time possible based on our experience working with home owners who have sold their homes and feedback from home buyers that buy homes. This weeks tip: The Kitchen In most homes, buyers will spend the most time in the kitchen. Make sure your kitchen is ready for this. If you have appliances that are dirty or old, get them cleaned spotless or consider replacing them. You do not need to spend a lot of money replacing your stove or refrigerator with top end appliances, but you do not want buyers walking into a kitchen, see a dirty stove or refrigerator and then walking out because of it. And do not forget the drawers and cabinets as buyers will open ...

This article I found, 5 Housing Market Predictions For 2015, talks about economic recovery for homeowners and first time home buyers ... It’s a new year—and the outlook on the housing market is definitely brighter. After all, 2014 was the best year in the U.S. economic recovery since the recession of 2008-2009. With an accelerating economic recovery fueling job and income growth, prospects are good for homeowners and would-be home buyers. 1. Mortgage Rates Will Head Back Up The flip side of the improving economy is that (sigh) mortgage rates will inevitably head up again. We’ve had a great run, but the honeymoon is over, and it’s time to settle in for a relationship that balances job growth with higher-but-still-reasonable interest rates. The Federal Reserve has indicated it will increa...
