Biggest Questions Most People Have About the Housing Market
Whether you are looking to sell or buy, the housing market can be a tricky industry. It is always changing and the current state is completely different than how it was even several years ago. Here are some of the biggest questions and answers that most people have about the housing market in Admirals Cove. How is the housing market really doing?- While the housing market hasn’t fully recovered from the crash, it is headed in the right direction. Prices are up and inventory is low, creating a seller’s market full of bidding wars. Are banks lending?- Banks are eager to lend to people that are qualified. If you have bad credit or not enough of a down payment, it will be tougher to get a bank to lend you money. An above average FICO score, a suitable debt0to income ratio, and proof of a 20% down payment will increase your chances of getting a loan. Will home prices keep rising?- While impossible to predict the future, it appears that home prices will keep rising the rest of the year. It is unlikely that they will never be as high as they were in 2006, they will continue to climb, especially if there are more people looking to buy then there are homes for sale.

Tips on Selling an Older Home
Admirals Cove features a wide variety of homes in different styles, sizes, and years of age. Older homes have personality and character that many buyers are looking for. There is a certain stigma though that can be associated with older homes that could make a buyer nervous. Here are some tips to get people to forget about the possible negatives about selling and buying an older house. Get an inspection- Typically it is the buyer who gets the inspection of the home. If your house is in good condition though, getting the inspection could increase your chances of landing a buyer. Make your major repairs before listing- Even though some people like the task of renovations, most buyers want a home that is already ready to move in. Even though the return on investment on large repairs isn’t huge it could mean the difference between a quick sale and the house sitting on the market for too long. Highlight the time period- The charm of an older home is usually the features it has based on when it was built. Highlighting these certain features and attributes can add to its charm and ultimately attract the right buyer. For home listings in Admirals Cove, visit...

Three Reasons Why the Housing Maket is Recovering
For a while now, the public has been hearing about how the housing market is making a recovery. Here is a look at the three key reasons for the recovery. Fewer distressed properties- When the hosing bubble burst, millions of homeowners lost their properties. The result was that the housing market was flooded with distressed properties. The only people interested in these properties were those looking to purchase them for an investment or as a fix-up. Fast forward to 2013 and only 1 out of 5 home sales are for distressed properties. Lack of inventory- Currently, the demand of homes is greater than the supply. This is causing buyers to get into a bidding war with each other and driving up the prices of homes. With the inventory being as low as it is for the first time since 2005 it is quickly becoming a seller’s market. Increased consumer confidence- As the economy starts to recover, it leads to either new jobs or a new sense of job security. People are now more likely to start making large purchases again, including homes. This gives people the confidence to get out there and start looking for their new home.

Renovate Your Home Without Getting Overwhelmed
Taking on renovations can be very stressful. From dealing with contractors to the general disruption of your day to day tasks it can be a daunting task. Here are some tips for renovating your home. Save up- One of the worst mistakes people make is not saving adequately for the renovation before it begins. Contractors can be known for going over budget and people can find things that they want that are more expansive than planned. Saving more than budgeted will help with some of these issues. Clean up at the end of every work day- All the dust and debris from each day can really add up over time. Cleaning up a little every day can save you a lot of time in the long run then if you let everything build up. The best way to keep up some sort of normalcy in your home during a renovation is to keep it as clean as possible during the entire process. Avoid doing more than one room at a time- One of the common misconceptions is to get all your renovations done at once. Although it might seem never ending, doing everything at once means no place to escape to if you want to get away from everything. For home listings in Admirals Cove visit...
