| A record number of
people in America were able to purchase homes in the last
few years, and now we know why--some of them got loans for
which they were not really qualified.
There will
be plenty of blame to pass around in the coming months, but
that doesn't help the seller who needs to sell now.
Institutions may get bailed out, but the individual
homeowner (you) probably will not be accorded the same
opportunity.
Assuming
you are not yet completely upside-down in your mortgage, we
may be of some assistance to you. First, do you really
have to sell now? Sometimes, there are other
options, even if you are moving, getting a divorce, or other
reasons people believe that are compelled to sell.
Also, how
you sell can have a great effect on whether you come out
ahead when the escrow company finally cuts the checks.
And, even if you feel you are buried in your mortgage, there
may be options.
About the
only sure way to make things worse is to wait--the economic
turnaround is not going to happen in the next three or four
months. We offer an advisory service that looks at
your real estate as part of your entire financial package,
and we have the expertise to assist you in making decisions
about selling (or not selling) your home.
Even if
you are not planning to sell your real estate now, it pays
to know (1) what it's most likely really worth in the market
now, and (2) how it may help, or not help, you in the long
run.
