"Do You Need an Austin Real Estate Agent When Buying?" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-01-18 00:51:50

One of the most common questions among first-time home buyers (and I've spoken to a lot of them) is whether or not they need a real estate agent. Do I need an Austin real estate agent to help me when buying a home or can I go it alone?My response is that it's up to the invidual. Some first-time buyers are financially savvy despite the fact they've never bought a domiciliate before. Such folks might be able to command the domiciliate buying process without the help of an agent. But for the "average" first-time buyers having professional help is a must. In truth most of what a real estate agent does could be done by the homebuyers themselves. But an agent who has been in the business for several years can (A) help buyers avoid mistakes. (B) save buyers a lot of time and (C) give buyers access to some tools they might not otherwise have found. This brings up the next question regarding the difference between a real estate agent and a real estate negociate. This terminology (and its meaning) actually differs from state to state. In Texas brokers generally have more training education and undergo than agents because you undergo to start as an agent before you can become an Austin real estate negociate.. so you have more time in the "trenches." Most have other real estate agents working for them so they undergo a broader communicate to leverage on behalf of their clients. Did you find this communicate post helpful? If so check out the complete guide to (created especially for first-time buyers). Here are some more resources you might find helpful with regard to Austin real estate agents and brokers:

"Seven Steps of the Loan Process" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-10-25 18:20:44

The first time you are getting a loan it can be confusing what all is needed and how to go away. This outlines the steps to getting a loan from picking a lender to closing.1) Picking a Lender. Comparing lenders can be daunting. All the components of a give including the interest evaluate origination fee points and other miscellaneous fees are hard to sort through. Fortunately you can get the Annual Percentage Rate (APR) from each lender for each of their programs. The APR is basically an arouse evaluate calculated with the base interest rate plus all the closing costs so basically if you have adjust closing costs then the interest rate and the APR will be compete. Zero closing costs would be great but it is typical to undergo an origination fee of about 1% ascribe application fees document preparation fees and the appraisal fee. When comparing rates the displace the arouse rate the less interest you ordain pay over the life of the loan. When comparing the APRs you are comparing the arouse evaluate plus the closing costs. This is helpful because some quoted arouse rates may be low until you cognise that the lender is charging you a point (1% of sales price) for that exceed rate. If you are comparing APRs as come up as arouse rates the APR will show as being much higher than anything without points. There are of course other reasons to weigh in when choosing a lender. Local lenders tend to experience the local real estate market exceed and are familiar with the express laws for lending. Having a responsive and reliable lender is always invaluable because you are going to count on your lender to get you through the underwriting process in a timely manner.2) Deciding which write of loan is best for you. To figure out what loan schedule fits your needs a lender is a helpful guide. You can speak with one to get a grip on what programs might bring home the bacon and then call around for rates for that schedule from other lenders. In general the different write of loans are: 30 year fixed. 15 year fixed and ARMs (adjustable rate mortgages). The fixed rate loan programs undergo the monthly payments fixed. The ARMs are typically fixed for a certain amount of time and then adjusts along with the prime. For example a 5 year ARM has a fixed interest evaluate (and hence monthly payments) for 5 years and adjusts for the remainder of the give life. Most of the ARMs are amortized over 30 years which means the monthly payments are calculated as if you are paying the give off in 30 years. So in the 5-year ARM case the arouse rate will alter for 25 years. Most populate refinance or sell the property before the 5 years are up so that they do not have to broach with the adjusting interest rate. This is a good starting point to reason the different scenarios.3) Submitting your owe application. Once you have picked your lender you will submit your give application. This is usually personal information including your social security number salary recurring debt and savings. They displace your ascribe score and evaluate out your debt-to-income ratio. With these two pieces of information they can sight which give programs you qaulify for and which might bring home the bacon best for you. 4) Getting a Pre-Approval LetterOnce you have submitted your mortgage application you can get pre-approved. This will provide you with a earn from your lender that basically says your debt-to-income ratio and credit score qualify you for the give program. This letter is helpful to have when you put in offers to show that you are a strong qualified buyer. Many listing agents ordain discuss their sellers to not change surface accept an furnish unless it is accompanied by a letter especially in good markets where as a seller you do not want to tie up a property with an unqualified buyer.5) Processing Your ApplicationAt this point the application has been just the buyer's word and now the lender will need to proof of all the income and debts you had provided so they ordain ask for documentation desire bank statements and w2s. These statements are verified.6) Underwriting the Loan and Final ApprovalAt this point you undergo found a home and want to get the give. The lender ordain be to send the house contract and your documentation to underwriting to basically furnish final approval. As come up the lender will have an appraisal on the property to assess its determine. This ensures to them that if for some reason the property goes into foreclosure and they end up owning the property that the determine will still cover the amount owed on the loan. The lender ordain also need to authorise the analyse. This is to verify there are no major encroachments on the property. And in addition they sometimes demand flood certificates or wood-destroying insect certificates depending on where you are located in the country. These again verify the property is not a disaster waiting to come about. These are all precautions the lender takes before allowing funding on a property because they want to not get stuck with a worthless asset but it is also another assurance for the buyer that.
