Buy now…. or Wait?

Local TV Reporter John Matarese analyzes the prospect for buying a home now, waiting for a further uptick in the market, or renting. For some it’s a complicated question, but with home prices off by 10% to 50%, low mortgage rates, and large for sale inventories, now is a great time to buy. Other than some emotional “the market is slow” issues, home affordability and selection may never again be this attractive for this generation of home buyers.

According to the the Wall Street Journal’s in-house real estate expert you really should avoid the Pre-Listing Inspection. June Fletcher, writer for the Journal, believes that the Pre-Listing inspection could provide you with too much information about the condition of your property and force you to disclose flaws that might wait until the potential buyer conducts their own inspection. By waiting for an inspection you can manage your negotiating position and still honestly list your home. Ms. Flectcher offers more advice and insight into the pre-lisitng inspection issue with this article. |

Yearly Statistical Analysis from Cincinnati MLS

I know you cannot read the below graphic, but it’s showing us the average Selling Price as a percent of Listing Price in the Greater Cincinnati area over the past five years. This is only one of several statistical analysis graphs that were published by the Cincinnati Multiple Listing Service today. |

Take a look at the complete analysis, and look through a thorough review of the residential real estate market in Cincinnati, Ohio for the past five years. The Selling Price as a percent of Listing Price is a favorite of mine. Even in today’s market, the average Selling Price is still more than 94% of the Listing Price. This demonstrates the effect a professional REALTOR has on defining the List Price, because a REALTOR will consider the current market conditions when setting the price, which on average limits (or completely eliminates) the “fire sale, offer way below the Listing Price” situation in real estate. Even today, the average selling discount from the Seller’s Listing Price is no more than a consistent five to six percent. If you like data, this is a great report. |

Forbes recently published their list of tips for selling your home during 2010. According to Forbes, one of the best ideas is listing your home earlier than in more traditional years. |

In their accompanying article “The Best Time of Year to Sell a Home”, Forbes discusses the various factors that are affecting the residential real estate market, and Forbes makes a case that the Spring of 2010 will be most effective for listing residential real estate. Of course, well known factors affecting the market today could vibrate and change very rapidly. These include interest rates, the federal tax credit, job security, home prices, unemployement, and general public sentiment. While not in-depth, these articles from Forbes do offer updated information for early 2010. |

What is a Home Warranty?
A home warranty is a service contract, normally for one year, which helps protect home owners against the cost of unexpected covered repairs or replacement on their major systems and appliances that break down due to normal wear and tear. Coverage is for systems and appliances in good working order at the start of the contract.
What is a Short Sale?
If a home is being sold for below what the current seller owes on the property—and the seller does not have other funds to make up the difference at closing—the sale is considered a short sale. A short sale is different from a foreclosure, which is when the seller's lender has taken title of the home and is selling it directly. Homeowners often try to accomplish a short sale in order to avoid foreclosure.
