Antique moldings, a unique staircase and a colorful past give one listing a historic charm that can't be replicated, yet another home is brand-new with all of the latest high-tech amenities. Which one is right for you? We're fortunate to have a variety of home styles - and ages - to choose from in the area. Each has its own appeal, depending on your lifestyle, price range and personal taste. I can help you find a home that meets your needs and style. In the meantime, here's a look at some of the points to consider when choosing between an older, more historic home and a new, state-of-the-art property. Older Homes Craftsmanship: Older homes feature special touches that, in some instances, can't be replicated. Beautiful columns, antique lighting fixtures, stained or beveled glass, wood t...

Your newly constructed dream house is almost ready and it's time for the all-important walk-through with your builder. Do you know what you should be looking for? Some problems may not be readily visible, even if you hire a professional inspector. Fortunately, most builders offer a warranty to cover problems in the workmanship of a home -- they do not, however, cover problems resulting from owner neglect or faulty maintenance. Still, knowing what to look for in your pre-settlement walk-through is a good way to catch potential problems. Here's a helpful "punch list" to use from the National Association of Homebuilders: Outside Grading: Does the ground around the foundation slope away from the house? Make sure the water does not pond or pool in large puddles, especially near the foundatio...

Whether you're planning a move across town or across the country, making the move hassle-free is what it is all about. Besides the traditional garage sale and packing of boxes, there are a few details you won't want to forget before you begin loading the truck: Plan Ahead Experts recommend scheduling moves at least one month in advance, especially during the peak-moving season between May and September. Some estimates indicate 80 percent of all moving and storage business is done when schools are out. That's when employees are most likely to be transferred. Ask Questions Take the time to get as much information as possible from moving companies before selecting one. Check on truck size and availability. Ask about moving supplies, such as boxes, dollies and furniture pads. Find out abou...

A valid real estate contract must be in writing and be freely offered by the buyer and accepted by the seller. All parties to the contract must be legally competent to do business. Money or other valuable consideration needs to be exchanged for title to the property. Keep in mind that if things go wrong, the buyer could require you to sell your home to him/her or pay damages. Be familiar with the terms of any contract you give to a would-be purchaser. Consider the contract as a whole. Is it slanted in favor of the buyer? If so, consult an attorney about making changes. Analyze the document as a series of paragraphs or clauses, each written to benefit one party or the other. Key Elements of the Contract Price and termsIf a low offer comes your way, remain cool until you've examined the ...

Traditional Loan Process You've found the mortgage you want and you're ready for the next step - the loan application. The process costs anywhere from $100 to $500 and is usually non-refundable. Lenders levy the fee to cover the costs of running credit reports and filling out mortgage-insurance applications. What to expect You will need raw material, and lots of it, for the application: income and balance-sheet figures and evidence, copies of past income-tax returns and the title to your car. Take the paperwork you gathered during the prequalifying process with you. Be prepared to provide the name and phone number of someone who can verify your financial information - most likely your employer's personnel office. If you have substantial non-salary income from investments, you'll be ask...

In spite of some positive economic news.  But buying turned fierce early Friday when Dubai World, that country's financial arm that is responsible for funding the massive construction efforts in that country, said it may have to postpone meeting its $60 billion worth of financial obligations.  Asian markets tumbled, and money headed to the safe haven of Treasuries, sending the 10-year note yield, which moves inversely to price, tumbling to its lowest level since June.  Occurrences such as this, however, are generally a temporary reaction to a monetary crisis. The week began on an up note, with existing home sales in October rising 10.1% to an annual rate of 6.10 million units -- the most since February 2007.  This put pressure on Treasuries, but they rebounded when St. Louis Fed preside...

1.   Spending more than you make.  This can lead to real   danger in not being able to afford to purchase.  Create a budget you can live with and cancel credit cards you do not use before applying for a loan. 2.   Not Saving Enough for Down Payment and Closing Costs. Be sure to include these items when working on your home buying budget.  It will be difficult to come up with thousands of dollars if you have not planned ahead. 3.   Failure to Understand Cost to Own and Maintain a Home.  You must understand the expenses involved in ownership and plan your budget to include these items.  All homes are different and the costs vary depending on the type of home and construction. 4.   No Knowledge of Mortgage Products.  Investigate the types of mortgages available and find one that fits your...

A great way to make the home-buying process flow smoothly is to educate yourself and learn from mistakes others have made - this can make the difference between buying the home of your dreams and buying a "lemon." Not getting pre-qualified or pre-approved Not seeking guidance from real estate professionals and inspectors Choosing an agent haphazardly Not getting enough information about the properties Not looking at enough houses for sale Not making the correct price comparison Forgetting to calculate all the costs Not asking enough questions Fear of losing a specific house Not looking past the interior decorating or cosmetic improvements Not checking out every nook and cranny before purchasing Not making a low offer Being pushed into buying a certain home   Don't jump from agent to ag...

1. Not doing your homework. Enter the market well-prepared by researching location, school district, deed restrictions and taxes.   2. Trying to make a shrewd investment. Focus on finding the best place for you and your family to live rather than trying to predict the real estate market.   3. Choosing a poor location. Consider what part of town you would like to live in and avoid homes located on busy streets.   4. Overlooking an inferior floor plan for an attractive exterior. Choose a great floor plan over a great exterior because you'll spend far more time inside the house than outside.   5. Overlooking how the home will function for your family. Consider features that are most important to your family and choose a home that will meet those needs.   6. Not having the home properly in...
