Getting a conventional loan for a flipping project can be difficult. The lender will order an appraisal, which will list defects that are found in addition to placing a value on the house. Some are deal killers while others aren't. If the problems are not too bad, the lender may require that money be set aside in escrow to cover the costs of any repairs that may be necessary. If the repairs are mostly cosmetic in nature, you could be ok. Things like paint, carpet, cleaning up the landscaping and other minor items should not stop you from getting a loan. Other things such as major plumbing and electrical problems, foundation issues, a bad roof or other major items could be enough to make a lender decline a loan. Just as there are closing costs when you purchase the house, there are also ...

The old phrase, "Real Estate is Local", has been worn out by countless Realtors, desperate to paint as bright a picture as possible in a bleak real estate market.  It's more than just a worn out catch phrase, though, and without paying attention to what's happening in the region you're looking to buy or sell in, you can find yourself extremely frustrated. I've written 5 contracts for buyers looking in Fort Washington, MD over the last 3 weeks.  All of them have been on foreclosed properties.  In 4 out of the 5 contracts, we have found ourselves competing with other buyers in a multiple-bid situation.  The first question that comes to buyers mind when they hear this is usually something along the lines of: "Is the real estate market really that good?" Here's a quick breakdown on what's r...

Across the country, markets are suffering and Fort Washington is no exception.  Seller can't sell their homes in the traditionally manner because home prices have declined so much and buyers are required to put more and more money as a downpayment on homes to get decent financing through the conventional method.  One of the ways I have been able to help homeowners and buyers is through lease options. I have many properties in Fort Washington and throughout Prince Georges County that the Seller wants to sell but do not want to (or can't) do a short sale, so I suggest a lease option.  Lease Options are  way to buy and sell homes without immediate traditional financing.  It is a great way for buyers to get into a home and have some "skin in the game" while they, either, build up their cred...

A few years ago, new homes in Fort Washington, MD in southern Prince George County flew off the market.  Builders flocked to the area like this was the last area to build on earth.  Buyers stood in line and actually slept outside to put a contract on a home in Fort Washington.   Today, our area new construction projects have come to a halt.  Because of this, Fort Washington Area homes have Good and Bad news.  The Bad news is that most of the people that slept outside in line to put a contract on a home, could not afford the home they purchased. Most ended up in foreclosure or some were sold via a short sale.  The Good news is that many homebuyers are now coming back into the market to purchase the short sale homes.   To buy a short sale in Fort Washington is not difficult as there are c...

Excuse my slang (hilzot, slang for HOTJ)   More and more homebuyers are calling Fort Washington, MD Home because it is right outside the hub of the government controlled Washington DC.  Jobs are plentiful in this area because of the government. Fort Washington spans from the National Harbor all the way down, approximately 10 miles, Indian Highway and another 3-4 miles east and west.    Fort Washington real estate overlooks the Potomac River in Prince Georges County.  Fort Washington is home to a 340 acre park that offers picnic areas and hiking for the outdoor enthusiasts.  The park itself is a National attraction overseen by the National Park Service and it is well maintained.  Many Fort Washington properties are by large waterfronts served by a golf course, two marinas and a Country C...
