Why Buy This Home?

Given price per square foot, this home is priced right on the money.  So, to the right buyer willing to pay a price in a “recovering” market, this is it.  Last year alone, in this subdivision, the average home was selling for $295,000.  That is a 14% net price appreciation increase!

Condition of this property is beyond turn key.  This property includes some top of the line finishes.  Case and point: the handrails and some of the bedrooms on the second floor.  They consist of wood material, not laminate or composite.  All the new owners have to do is add their own “aesthetic” touch such as paint colors, etc.

The property sits in a dead-end section of the neighborhood.  This greatly restricts traffic to locals only (awesome if you have kids).  And is located a block off 157th avenue…which makes entering and exiting the area a breeze.  Add to that other great local amenities such as the exquisite Moon Thai, and So Yoga for life balance and fitness.  Oh…and don’t forget fun for kids (and adults), the well-known Kendall Ice Arena.

Monthly Mortgage Payment at 4.3% interest rate, 30-year fixed, and purchase price of $335,000:

  • FHA loan with 3.5% down: $1,600
  • Conventional loan with 5% down: $1,775
  • Conventional loan with 10% down: $1,492
  • Conventional loan with 20% down: $1,326

Killer Mindset For Today’s Market

Mario AvalosLeave a comment

White LionBuyer mindset for today’s market. What’s it like? How must you think to score the right deal given an opportunity?

The only way I can describe what you must be: patiently aggressive. Now…what the heck is that?

Today’s market consists of a historic low inventory. Add to that the portion that is made up of foreclosures and short sales. These type of properties are usually priced from fair market value up to 10% below it. This combination has created an outrageous demand for good homes in good areas.

Patiently aggressive buyers are like tigers hunting for deer after months of hunger. They wait for the right deal to cross their way because they know its coming. And once it comes, they don’t think. They act. They don’t plan. They execute. They don’t compare, analyze or start pondering if there is a better deal out there.

And in today’s market, for you the buyer, this is the right mindset you must have in order to score on a great deal. Ever heard of the saying, ” the deal of the century comes once a week”. Well, in this market, its coming once a month. So you must be ready.

Off-course, nothing is ever done without the right preparation. And where do you start? With a real estate agent?

Before stepping onto your car to view a single property, a real estate agent must explain to you three factors and not just simply throw you into a safari with a blessing. The three factors are:

  1. Expectations of how the market is, or how are other buyers’ conduct in buying properties so that you know how to compete in order to score a deal. Yes…as much as you may not think…this is competition. You are competing with other buyers.
  2. The process of making an offer within 24 hours from viewing the property.
  3. What are all your “ways out” of a contract after you submit an offer to a seller.

In conclusion, the above explanation is for buyers that claim they want a “hot deal”. And most buyers do. The problem is that lost of buyers and or their real estate agents are not aggressive by nature.
