HARP Refinance Program Expanded Borrowers who are current on their home loans may be able to refinance for lower interest rates, even if they are seriously upside down.  The Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) announced today that it will broaden the scope of the Home Affordable Refinance Program (HARP) by removing the current 125 percent loan-to-value cap for fixed-rate mortgages backed by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.  Other program enhancements include, among other things, reducing certain fees, eliminating the need for a new property appraisal if the FHFA has a reliable automated valuation model (AVM) estimate, and extending HARP until the end of 2013.  New federal guidelines for the HARP changes should be released to mortgage lenders and servicers by November 15. The basic eligibil...

What is a Short Sale? A short sale is when a homeowner sells their house for less money than they owe on the mortgage or mortgages. Short selling is an alternative to foreclosure for homeowners/borrowers who can no longer afford to keep mortgage payments current. Sometimes, to avoid going through the costs of foreclosure, a lender will authorize a short sale by allowing a homeowner to sell the home for less than the mortgage owed. Simplified Steps of a Short Sale: Homeowner signs a listing agreement with a real estate agent. This short sale listing agreement is subject to third-party/lender approval. The home is marketed to buyers. Seller accepts a buyer's purchase offer subject to the lender's approval. Seller's lender accepts the buyer's purchase offer, which is less than owed on sel...

Ontario Real Estate The Ontario real estate market has been extremely volatile in the past few years, from foreclosures, short sales and standard sales as well. But Ontario real estate transactions are still happening in spite of the market crash and tough market conditions. While it is true that many unfortunate Ontario homeowners are losing their properties to foreclosure, foreclosing banks and lenders are not in any hurry to list their Ontario foreclosed assets for sale. Banks have slowed the resale of their Ontario foreclosures to a trickle to keep the real estate marketplace competitive for buyers and to not flood the supply. It is a great time to buy Ontario real estate if you have the resources to do so, but there are many buyers and investors buying foreclosures. These conditio...

Have you ever been accused of playing favorites?  I know I have.  Tomorrow I have a client who is flying in from Maryland to view a specific home, that was just listed. It's the best I've seen in the neighborhood and is probably one of the best that will ever be.  It has a fabulous kitchen, outdoor space, great wall space for my clients' extensive art collection (which has been publised in magazines) and I love the bathrooms!  I am a bathroom and kitchen guy myself!  And the outdoor space has to speak to me, including the front "approach".. and entry. What is your favorite part of a home, and why?

This is a little note..to remind you to invest in a few lint brushes, be mindful of your pets, especially when you're preparing for showings of your home for sale. How many of you have walked in and smelled a pet? What does that smell do to the value of the home you're viewing? Be honest. Yup! Just think if you walked in and the home was well ventilated and didn't smell or look like a pet lived there. It's almost like a smoker's house. Do you know what I'm saying? Keeping your home for sale tidy and clean should not only help you sell it, but also yield you a higher net on the sale when closing day arrives. Thanks for listening!

Tell everyone you know: "My happiness depends on me, so you're off the hook." And then demonstrate it. Be happy, no matter what they're doing. Practice feeling good, no matter what. And before you know it, you will not give anyone else responsibility for the way you feel -- and then, you'll love them all. Because the only reason you don't love them, is because you're using them as your excuse to not feel good. --- Abraham  (Jerry and Esther Hicks)
