Give Your House the "WOW!" Factor
|
|
Take your home from “For Sale” to “SOLD”!
Clean, De-Clutter and De-Personalize.
Start at the curb and look at your home through the eyes of the buyer.
Create a "You have arrived....Come on in!" look from the moment the buyer drives up.
Trim and prune bushes and over-grown plants. Plant a couple of flowers to add a splash of color.
Inspect your front door. Give it a good cleaning or coat of paint if need be.
Having a clean, bright and clutter-free home makes a great impression. There is only one chance to make a wonderful, inviting, first impression.
Make sure that the kitchen and bathrooms are sparkling clean. Put the toaster away? Put cosmetics and blow dryers away? Absolutely! Clear the counters of the items that may normally be out on a daily basis.
Let the light shine! Make sure all light bulbs are working. Clean the windows and open the curtains and blinds!
How is the traffic flow in your home? Re-arrange furniture to enhance the room’s features. If you have a lot of furniture consider removing and storing an item or two. This will make the room appear larger!
If you have a lot of personal photos, memorabilia, or collectibles…pack them now! Yes, all of these items that are near and dear to your heart should be removed. It will make a big difference in how your house shows in the eyes of the buyer! Remember you are not selling your wonderful things or fabulous collection, you are selling your house.
Visit a builder's model home for additional ideas about staging your home.
Once you have de-cluttered your home you may be ready for a garage sale. Great idea! But wait until after you list your home with me. The best time to have the garage sale is after I put the "For Sale" sign in front!
...Looking out for you!

You have not selected any of the above reports.
A short sale occurs when a property is sold and the lender agrees to accept a discounted payoff, meaning the lender will release the lien that is secured to the property upon receipt of less money than is actually owed.
Often, a lender accepts a discounted payoff on a mortgage to avoid foreclosure proceedings on the property.
Example:
A homeowner/seller, who may be facing foreclosure, has an existing first mortgage of $300,000. The current market value for comparable homes has decreased. Similar homes are SELLING FOR LESS than the homeowner owes. A Buyer presents an offer for $270,000.
The Lender accepts the offer as full payment for the loan. This is a short sale. The Lender has given a discount on the homeowner's loan. Although the Lender has taken a loss, it is not as severe as compared to the costs involved in the foreclosure process.
Short sale is an alternative to bankruptcy or foreclosure proceedings for the homeowners who can no longer afford to keep mortgage payments current.
Plan ahead. Call me today. 951-870-9111 or KBeachRealtor@Gmail.com

TAX HELP for Short Sale Sellers

Tax Relief is Always Good News!
Homeowners who find themselves in the unfortunate situation of facing foreclosure, or who sell their homes in a short sale may qualify for tax relief under the newly signed “Mortgage Forgiveness Debt Relief Act of 2007”.
It's a law that gives a tax break to short sale sellers who have sold their home and the lender has forgiven a portion of the debt that is owed to them. This occurs when the value of a home decreases below the amount of the mortgage owed to the lender. All short sales must be approved by the lender, and the seller must prove a financial hardship.
Previously the tax code treated the portion of the debt that is forgiven by the lender as income to the seller. The IRS would add this amount to the sellers taxable annual income.
Under the new law, the mortgage debt forgiven in 2007, 2008, and 2009 in connection with a short sale or foreclosure may qualify for tax exclusion.
Here is a summary of the qualifications that apply to the new law:
The tax exclusion applies to mortgage debt forgiveness only on principal residences. Second homes and investment properties will not qualify.
The maximum amount of loan forgiveness is $2 million and applies to acquisition indebtness only. Acquistion indebtness is the amount of money it took to buy an existing home or build a new home, or, the amount of equity an owner may cash out to make a substantial improvement or renovation to the home. In the event of an equity cash out when refinancing, the owner must prove that the money was put back into the house for a substantial upgrade. If the money was used for other purchases it will not qualify as a tax exclusion.
Please seek the advice and service of your professional tax consultant for proper documentation and appropriate filing methods for this valuable tax exclusion. |
