Short term renting and then buying a house...do real estate companies offer this? I am going to be moving to a new state 8 months before my husband. I am planning on renting for a while and then hopefully finding a house by the time my husband joins me. I obviously don't want to sign a rental lease because if I don't know how long until I will find a house. So I was wondering if anyone knows of any options that might work for me. I know some real estate companies rent houses - do you know if they will rent you a house and then let you out of the lease if you buy from them? Or do you have any other ideas of what I could do? I am moving to a small town. Thanks!
What's my best option in a real estate agent in buying a house I found on my own? I am in the market for a home and found one through an open house. My real estate agent, who I haven't worked with in 9 months, isn't very good. My question is, should I contact her to negotiate my offer? Should I ask an out-of-town real estate relative? Or look for a new one in town?

Do i need a real estate attorney and inspector to buy a new home in Southern CA? I'm about to sign a sale contract with a home builder, the house is in Riverside, CA. i heard some comment that i only need to have a real estate agent to take care and review my contract and escrow paper, not lawyer. is that true? somehow with all the research i've done online i'm not so convincing of that idea. this is the first time i buy a house so i have no clue at all who is better.please advise. and if i do need a real estate attorney, please give me some recommendation in Riverside,CA or around the city. It'd be nice too if you could give me an idea of how big the attorney charge will be. I'm also being told that i don't need to hire a home inspector since the house is brand new and come with warranty.again i'm not very convincing. so i need more advise and opinion from more people and recommendation for home inspector too. please also let me know the inspection charge range if possible. thank you!

Real Estate purchase (Buy a house from my daughter and I) _ Follow UP? This is a follow up. Let me provide some detail. My goal is to enable my daughter to get off the deed and loan on the existing house so she and her new husband can qualify for a new home purchase. Some detail. We (my daughter and I) bought the house a few years ago for $300K. It is now worth $270K. Our loan balance is 295. So to refinance we have to have a loan to value of 80% which means the new loan could only be $216K...and we don't have that cash to pay it down. So, what could work is a new purchase of the house where you finance 80% on a first mtg and 20% on a second - which gets my daughter off the deed / and gets me a lower interest rate - both my objectives. So, a new purchase is at 270K and I have to pay off the old loan by coming up with the difference between 295 minus 270 or $25K...which may be possible. My daughter and I are on the house....can we (my daughter and I) sell the house to me???
Have found house that I would like to buy, but want to get new Real Estate person...Not under Contract.? Hi. I am in the market for a new house and have found the one that I want. My real estate agent took me to this house a few ago and we fell in love. I have already made an offer, non contractually binding. The brokering agent works for the same agency and sits a few desks down from my real estate guy. I get the feeling that I might be better off with someone without such a conflict of interest. Would it be possible to get a new real estate agent at this stage? Thanks so much. Hi. I am in the market for a new house and have found the one that I want.

Is it a good time to buy a new house on Costa del Sol, Spain? I will be coming to the area in the very near future and would like to buy an apartment overlooking the sea, preferrably in Torremolinos or Benalmadena. I have heard that prices dropped dramatically in Spain in the last year because of the crisis, so buying a real estate would be an option. If you live in the area, then you might know if they expect further drop in prices or it is worth buying a house in Spain now..

Why would Qs about the Wealthy Chinese chartering planes to buy US real estate get deleted? I have not received violation notices on two Qs on this subject. Do they really not want the US public to know about this trend of dollar rich Chinese and Arab oil moguls buying property in the US? PS ...they are buying houses from $500,000 and up. You can get a green card for that with a new program that gives an automatic green card to a buyer of big estates... The program allows for 10,000 new immigrants...starting in Florida. google it.

Where do you find legit information on buying foreclosed real estate and attending real estate auctions? I live in CA and have taken two college level Real Estate classes and a few seminars, but no one seems to have any information that is actually available to the public on how to buy foreclosures, where to get the lists from for free and where to find the auctions. My college instructors advised to just buy a house via the "normal" route and avoid many of the problems people have with such properties, and the seminar instructors just seemed to want to sell their own mailing lists which just listed banks that didn't have any information you couldn't find on Google. I've sent a few letters to Fannie Mae and have only received their "new home buyers' guide - which is very informative - but not helpful. I'd like to invest in foreclosures and possibly "flip" a property and I know it isn't easy and it is a true risk of $$, but it seems like those in the know are keeping quiet about their resources - if this is public information, where do you find it without taking a get-rich quick seminar?
Is it in my best interest to use the same real estate agent to sell and buy a new home at one time? We found a house we love and are considering having the agent list our house too, so she would get double commission. So she would be working for us and the seller of the home we want, and then selling our house too. Is this considered a conflict of interest or actually in our best interest? She would make double commission, so what is normal to negotiate in a double sale like this? I'm not even sure what normal commission rates are.

Now that the Real Estate boom bubble burst! What is the new hype in Real Estate that people may need help?

I thought I might have seen a commercial for this? Is there a real estate co like Remax that buys back houses? I thought I have seen an ad with Remax or some other real estate company saying they would buy your house if you wanted to sell. I assume would also need to use them to look for a new house also. Has anyone done this? How did it work out for you?
Is it hard to rent a house without an established job in your new town? We are moving to a new town (by choice, not because of a job), so my husband will be getting a new job once we arrive. He's an ASE certified master teach, and we have researched and jobs are plentiful. My fear comes in renting a house (real estate is HIGH there, plus we want to get to know the area before buying). We have been married 17 years and have never rented - always owned our own homes. Most of the rental applications I've seen ask for 2 pay stubs, gross salary, etc. I have an internet-based business (for the past nine years), so my business goes with me wherever I go, and I have tax returns to show my income. Hubby makes GREAT money, and he will have stubs from his old job but no NEW job. We also have A+ credit and very little debt. Will the pluses of our credit, home ownership history, etc. help, or do property management/landlords poo-poo you if you don't already have a job in the new place? THANKS, everyone! Yes, we don't plan to move until we have a LOT saved, plus we're getting a substantial amount of money out of the sale of our house. We want to be fully covered for two months worth of ALL bills, not just rent (even if we don't need it). THANKS! :)

When planning to move to another state, do you buy a new house before you sell your own, or after? We're planning on moving to California from Long Island. We're going to go to the real estate agent in September to put our house up for sale, but I would just like to know some information from people who have done this before. We've never done this before. Any tips to prepare for the big move?
Real Estate Law - house damage found after close escrow? I bought a house last Oct. We currently found serious water damage and wall problems behind newer installed high wall base - it rained much this year as well. It looked like the problem last for years. The previous seller did not cover the problem. It was the before previous seller did it. The seller rejected to fix it. Do I have a case to force them responsible for fixing it? I bought a house last Oct. We currently found serious water damage and wall problems behind newer installed high wall base - it rained much this year as well. It looked like the problem last for years. The previous seller did not cover the problem. It was the before previous seller did it. The seller rejected to fix it. Do I have a case to force them responsible for fixing it? Insurance company cannot deal with it because it's an old problem - not new problem. The seller said she does not know the water damage. The inspectors said they cannot know the problem behind the wall. Do I still have a case or it's a very weak case? People have two opposite opinions: 1) since sellers do not know the problem, they are not responsible for it 2) no matter sellers know the problem or not, they are responsible for it. I have a year to go after them. What do you think about it? Thank you for all the replies! I did have house inspection - they did not find any problem News - I remembered that I do have flood insurance. They will investigate whether it's covered or not by visiting my vacaiton house. I hire a lawyer for it anyway. Several lawyers think it's strong case once I shared more info. One might agree to take it as contengiency.

How will the new real estate tax law affect my tax deduction if I rent out my primary home for 1 year? I bought a house in Feb 2009, moved into it for 4 months. Now I'm planning to rent it out for a year. After that, I'll move back in. After 2 years, if I sell it and make a profit, how will the 1 year rental affect my tax deduction?
Am I locked into my real estate agent? I had my real estate agent take me to see a new construction house in a pulte community. I didn't know till I got there that there was already an agent on site that works for the builder. From experience, I know you can get the house for a lot cheaper without a buyer's agent. Can I still buy the house without using my real estate agent and just go right through the sales agent at the office or is she going to get in on the 3 or 4% commission now no matter what now?
selling house real estate home please read on...? I have a friend whom is selling his house. And he has an interested person to buy his home. The guy asked my friend if he pulled out the old floor and put this new floor or kept the old floor and put new floor over the old floor. My friend lied and said he took out the old floor and put new floor which was not true. The new floor is over old floor. Also, his house is not cable ready to watch cable tv. There are no cables in the walls. He doesnt want to mention this to the person. I dont agree with these two actions, but then again is he wrong. He said when people sell the house they dont always say 100 percent true. As long as home is sound and not falling down everything is fine. I mean the house is looking fine and great place to live but shouldnt you be honest 100 percent or am I being stupid. Thank you Thank you. I agree 100 percent. His floor is fine it is on sleepers not ply wood and seems strong but still he should tell the truth. Thanks again.
is it true that i you go into a new housing development without your real estate agent they cant represent you while driving in California, we saw some signs for a new housing development while driving down the street so we went in to check it out. we liked the place and are now thinking of buying there. is it true that we cant be represented by a real estate agent now that we went in on our own and not at his direction?
Should I buy a new home or an older home at a slightly lower price but in need of work? I would like to make some money from this investment, but the market is not good to sellers in this market. I can get either one for less than what it was worth a year ago. If I buy an older home for roughly 130k, I'd need to put about 15-20k to get it into top shape but the max it could sell for would be around 155-160k, so not much $ to be made. On the other hand I could build brand new for around 150-170k and when this new devolpment is completed, the neighborhood will be very nice and could possibley (key word there because there is no way to know exactly what a comp would go for yet) get 200k. I'm looking to buy now and sell in 2-5 years. If anyone has any sort of first hand info or expirience with flipping an older house, buying and selling a new house, making or losing money on real estate, It would be nice to hear. Thanks.
Can I deduct real estate taxes in NY from more than one home on my federal tax return? I bought a new house and havent sold the first one yet? Can i deduct mortgage interest from both? What about real estate taxes? Both houses are in NY city.
Is it a new thing that Buyer's would have to pay real estate agents too? I'm looking to buy a house. My agent wants us to sign a Buyer Agency agreement where I pay her a retainer and a "success fee" when we buy a house. I was pretty clear that the agent always makes their money from the commission the seller pays. That's been the way we've seen it in the past. Is this a new trend or do I need to get a new agent fast?
Is it smart to buy real estate in lieu of 401k and IRA? I want to buy a 2nd home in New Hampshire for investment and vacation purposes. But, to afford it, I will need to cut back on future contributions to 401k and IRA. I am 40 years old, and currently contribute about $30,000 to retirement accounts per year. The way I figure it, if i get 7% on the $30K, retirement that's $2100. If I take that same $30K and use it for down payment and mortgage expense on a $200,000 house that returns 7% that's $14,000. Plus in this market I am losing 10% on retirement savings - my thought is go to cash for 6 months, save some $ for down payment and buy when RE market is very soft. Thoughts?
Should I buy a used M3 now or a brand new M3 later on? Right now I am shopping around for real estate and I am being offered a lightly used e92 BMW M3 for 40k. I have been thinking about this car for some time. My only worry is that will have a new mortgage and car payment at the same time. I'm torn between: Buying a house (300k) + this used e92 M3 (40k) or Buying a house (300k) + waiting until June 2012 to buy a Brand New e92 M3 (60k-80k with European Delivery) and pick it up in Germany and make a vacation out of it.
Can I sell my house to my IRA (indirectly)? Sell house to a friend, then use IRA to buy the house? I bought a new house. I've been unable to sell my old house. I can set-up a "self-directed IRA" and use that to buy real estate. But "self-dealing" is not allowed. The IRA may not buy an investment from or sell an investment to a disqualified person (me, my spouse, my family members). I'm thinking of getting a friend to "temporarily buy" my house, then my IRA will buy the house from him. Will this work? This house is my old house. My payment for the mortgage + payment for a 2nd loan (originally a home equity line of credit) + taxes + insurance is greater than the rent income. The value is less than what I owe. I lived in it about 2 years ago (so I'm exempt from capital gain on sale for another few months). If my IRA buys back the house from my friend in 10 years, will that work? If so, how about after 6 months? Any suggestions on solving dilemma?
Do you have to get a real estate agent represent you when buying a brand new home.? They always have a sales person on site, and will do all the paper work, can you bargain with them? Do you need inspection when purchased or before move in? it is a new house thought. and any other question that I don't know, Can you help me?
Why is real estate so expensive in California, New York and Florida? I live in CA and the house I lived in my whole life was bought in the 80's for $100,000 now its worth more to $800,000 at re-sale value. So why did the housing prices go up so rapidly in such a short amount of time? I could sell my house here and buy a brand new house in Colorado and a brand new Aston Martin and still have money left over.
How do I remove a house listing from the Yahoo Real Estate? I sold a house the end of May, 2007. The new owners of the house contacted me that the house was actively listed & people were calling them about buying it. However, it isn't available and hasn't been. Peculiarly, the listing date is Jan. 8, 2008. I don't understand how it came onto the site, & I need to remove it. 160 Rathbun Hill Rd., Salem, CT 06420. Beverly

What companies offer services for selling houses quick other than real estate agents? Moving out of the country and need to sell our house very quickly next month or so, hubby has a new job in canada. Market is slow but who will buy our house at a fair price?
Can you be sued by the person who bought your house at auction? Our house went into foreclosure and then sold at sherriff's auction late last year. It sold for a bit more then we owed the banks. We expected to pay off everyone, then receive that money from the sale of the house, and start a new. The house was bought by a real estate investor. A few days after the house sold, we were informed that this real estate investor is suing us because he did not like the condition of the house, claiming that we intentionally vandalized the house. He is suing us for the exact amount that is owed to us after the house sold to repair damages. We did no such thing, we were forced to move in a very short time with no moving company to help. Has anyone been sued like this before? We feel we have already lost everything.
Real Estate question about already having a buying on your house and putting a down deposit on another? Okay so we found somebody to buy our house and a new house where we put down 2,000 dollars on the house. Today we found out that there is a high chance my husband's company is going to be bought by another company.. If that happens it means that he will have to reapply for his job. Hoping that he gets it he might not get the same pay he makes now and will have to take a smaller pay again. So worried that this will happen and preparing for the worst (me not working and being a stay at home mom) we decided that it will be best staying in our current home because A- we only owe a couple grand left on it that can actually be paid off with the money we've been saving for the new house and still have a little money left over and B- it would be stupid of us to get another house if his job at this moment isn't promised. That being said whats going to happen .. can we do that still call all things off (we didn't do settlement on the house yet not for another month on both) **Question is supposed to read : Real Estate question about already having a BUYER on your house and putting down deposit on another?** sorry.
Can I switch from one real estate agent to another? I signed papers with a real estate agent when i sent an offer in to buy a house. I am not happy with his service.

Recently received a letter from an investment real estate company willing to buy my house. The deal they...? ...are offering sounds too good to be true. Has anyone had any experience with one of these companies and is it really as easy as it sounds? What are the disadvantages, if any? They offer to buy the house and put the deed under the name of their company and we would be on the note still until they find an actual buyer. In the meantime they will make the payments and keep up with maintenance. In addition, my house has been on the market for about 6 weeks. The neighborhood has become one "on the wrong side of the tracks". I live in Texas. The company is legit, I just feel like there may be some fine print they aren't disclosing and I don't want it to mess up our credit.

Housing and real estate question, should I buy a house? I am 24, have a 34k salary, and have 10k saved up. I only have one debt, and its 7k left on my student loan. I want to buy a house, but was planning on buying a very nice one once I had a good amount of money saved up. But my father hinted to me that it might be a good idea to buy a small cheap house right now to live in, or even rent out, while the prices are low, around 50k-100k. Some things to consider, I currently live with my parents, I should be getting a promotion in about 3 years to about 50k salary. I am very good at saving my money, most of it goes straight to the bank. I also don't have a car yet, so obviously need to get one before I consider buying a house. Any info and suggestions would be great, thank you!
