Detroit MI - FHA 203k is a hot commodity Where can we find properties in need of repair? That is easy, anywhere in the United States where homes are at least 1 year old. It's that easy for sure. The FHA 203k is the perferred loan for home in need of repair as you can purchase and get the money to make needed repairs all in one low interest loan.While there is no need to refinance after the work is complete but you may want to. All FHA loans have this little issue with Private Mortgage Insurance (PMI) that is nearly 1% per month (0.85% of the loan amount). You may want to refinance to get out from under that PMI.

VIDEO-Are We In a Housing Bubble? Spring is usually the busiest season in the housing market. Many buyers wait until then to make their move, believing it’s the best time to find a home.

If you’ve seen Today's Foreclosure Headlines about distressed sales surging in the housing market, you’re certainly not alone. The stories in the media can be pretty confusing right now. They may even make you think twice about buying a home for fear that prices could crash. The reality is, the data shows a foreclosure crisis is not where the market is headed. You need to understand what that really means if you want to know the truth about what’s happening today. Here’s a deeper look.Proper ContextAccording to the Year-End 2022 U.S. Foreclosure Market Report from ATTOM, foreclosure filings are up 115% from 2021, but down 34% from 2019. As Today's Foreclosure Headlines grab onto this 115% increase, it’s more important than ever to put that percentage into context.The number of Today's F...

If you are moving to the Detroit area you may want to know the better cities that like west of downtown Detroit.  You may work downtown and want an easy drive down I-96.  Your spouse may work in the opposite direction in Ann Arbor and you may want to split the driving time for both of you.  So living west of downtown Detroit may be your best choice rather than living in the northern counties.When I say the four best cities near Detroit in the western suburbs I mean cities that have low crime, good schools, and that are desirable cities to live in.  Usually when you buy a home in a community that has low crime and good schools the housing prices are stable or rising.  That means when it is time for you to sell your home in the future you should be able to get more for the home. Here are ...
