Value of Future Payments

If you live in the UK, you no longer need to worry about how long it will take to sell your house. With the advent of the Internet, finding a reputable home buyer is only a click away.

All you have to do is find a good company to appraise your home or property. Find them online, and contact them via email or telephone to request an appraisal. Whether your home has fallen into disrepair or it is in pristine condition, home buyers will then contact you with a cash offer. Turn your home into cash before the week’s end.

If you are in a financially compromising position, don’t just sit around and wait for things to improve. The longer you wait to take action, the more debt you will have to pay back in the long run. So, if you are falling behind on your mortgage, take action now.

Selling your house the old-fashioned way is no easy feat in today’s housing market in the UK. Houses are sitting on the market for months on end as home values plummet. The longer your house sits, the more its price is likely to fall. With UK home buyers, you get instant gratification. Just email or call, and your home will be sold within the week. If you don’t like their offer, you are under absolutely no obligation to sell your home. But if you are satisfied with their offer, you’ll have cash in your pocket in no time flat.

You might not be keen on moving in with the parents after you sell your house. Fortunately, most homebuyers will allow you to rent the property after you sell it. This buys you time as you search for options. A lower rental payment means that you’ll be saving money for that new place.

Home buyers offer legal consultation as well, so that you can be informed of your rights. Make sure that you understand the process of selling your house to a home buyer. By being informed, you can make wise choices regarding the offer you are given.

UK home buyer services are able to buy your house quickly because of their prompt actions. They are able to have your house valuated within 24 hours. You’ll receive an offer about 24 hours after that, and you take as long as you need to decide. It’s that simple.

You’ll also avoid estate agent fees buy using a home buyer service. Agent fees are on the rise as the market continues to be unstable. Why add on to your debt when you can have cash in your hand within a week?

With repossession rates heading toward the all-time high of the early 1990s, you’ll want to take advantage of a home buyer to avoid becoming a statistic. Do a little homework and find a service that’s right for you. By finding the right home buyer, you can rest assured that your financial future is on the upswing.

Some home owners have the choice to sell or rent their homes after moving elsewhere, which can be a difficult decision to make. Here are some details on the pros and cons of either option, along with factors that should be considered when making the decision to sell or rent…

If you choose to rent the home, you may be able to generate additional income, and will retain the option to eventually move back. Chances are you bought the home for more than one reason in the first place, so you may have good reasons to hold onto the home. However, there are many costs associated with renting a home (appliances, hot water, property taxes, etc.), and the owner remains responsible for its maintenance. There is also the potential for problems with non-paying or careless tenants.  Being mindful of the tenants you let come into your home is an important factor.  Be sure to check out as much history and background on the potential tenant as you can, to try to save you from future troubles. 

On the other hand, if you successfully sell the home you won’t have to worry about making mortgage and property tax payments, finding trustworthy tenants, or maintaining the building. Generally, it will be necessary to pay a realtor’s sales commission and a portion of the closing costs, as well as spending time preparing the house for showings to potential buyers.  Putting your home on the market is a big decision.  You must be ready to move if you get an immediate offer.  With today’s economy homes are taking longer to sell, and preparing your home before you put it on the market is the key.  Making sure your home is in the best condition possible. Having things fixed, and freshened before potential buyers see it, will help it sell.  The first impression may determine whether the buyer will make an offer on your house, or go on to another house they like.  

One last option is to rent the home while trying to sell it. This option usually decreases both its rental and sale values.  Trying to sell it while renting can be hard, and risky.  You cannot guarantee that the renter will maintain the property in the same manner you, the owner would.   Basically, the best decision depends upon the real estate market in your area, your personal financial situation, the home’s attractiveness to renters or buyers, and your home maintenance abilities.

If you’re a family business owner, chances are you’re thinking about what you’ll do when your working days are over. As William Rothwell, a professor at Penn State University, noted in the foreword to Exit Right: A Guided Tour of Succession Planning for Families in Business Together “More than 40% of the people who run the closely held operations that comprise 80% of the North American economy will retire by 2007.”

Even if you currently view the idea as unlikely, you are wise to consider the possibility of selling your material handling company. The decision to sell is all too often a reactive one rather than a proactive one — the primary reasons are a serious health issue, owner burnout, the death of a principal, general industry decline or the loss of a major customer. Advance planning can ensure that you exit your business from a position of strength, not from weakness due to necessity.

1. The biggest mistake business owners make is waiting too long to sell. Have you ever heard, “I sold my business to early?” Compare that with the number of times you’ve heard somebody say, “I should have sold my business two years ago.” Unfortunately, waiting too long is probably the single biggest factor in reducing the proceeds from the sale of a privately held business. The erosion in business value typically is most pronounced in that last year before exiting.

The decision to sell is often times a reactive decision rather than a proactive decision. An individual who spends 20 years running their business and controlling their outcomes often behaves differently in the exit from his business. The primary reasons for selling are events such as a serious health issue, owner burnout, the death of a principal, general industry decline, or the loss of a major customer.

Exit your business from a position of strength, not from the necessity of weakness. Don’t let that next big deal delay your sale. You can reward yourself for that transaction you project to close with an intelligently written sale agreement containing contingent payments in the future if that event occurs.

2. Figure out what you will do with your time after you are no longer working sixty hours per week. We all create business plans both formally and informally. We all plan for vacations. We plan our parties. We need to plan for the most important financial event of our lives, the sale of our business.

Typically a privately held business represents greater than 80% of the owner’s net worth. Start out with your plans of how you want to enjoy the rewards of your labor. Where do you want to travel? What hobbies have you been meaning to start? What volunteer work have you meant to do? Where do you want to live? What job would you do if money were not in issue? You need to mentally establish an identity for yourself outside of your business.

3. Get your business ready to sell. Now that you are all excited about the fun things you’ll do once you exit your business, it’s now time to focus on the things that you can do to maximize the value of your business upon sale. This topic is enough content for an entire article, however, we will briefly touch upon a couple of important points.

First, engage a professional CPA firm to do your books. Buyers fear risk. Audited or reviewed financial statements from a reputable accounting firm reduced the perception of risk. Do not expect the buyer to give you credit for something that does not appear in your books. If you find that a large percentage of your business comes from a very few customers, embark on a program immediately to reduced customer concentration. Buyers fear that when the owner exits the major customers are at risk of leaving as well.

Start to delegate management activities immediately and identify successors internally. If you have no one that fits that description and you have enough time, seek out, hire and train that individual that would stay on for the transition and beyond. Buyers want to keep key people that can continue the momentum of the business.

Analyze and identify the growth opportunities that are available to your business. Get rid of that outdated inventory. The buyer will not pay you for it anyway and it just clutters up the place.

4. When you are wearing all the hats already, trying to sell your company yourself can hurt your business. A major mistake business owners make in exiting their business is to focus their time and attention on selling the business as opposed to running the business. This occurs in large publicly traded companies with deep management teams as well as in private companies where management is largely in the hands of a single individual.

Many large companies that are in the throws of being acquired are guilty of losing focus on the day-to-day operations. In case after case these businesses suffer a significant competitive downturn. If the acquisition does not materialize, their business has suffered significant erosion in value.

For a privately held business the impact is even more acute. There simply is not enough time for the owner to wear the many hats of operating his business while embarking on a full-time job of selling his business. The owner wants the impending sale to be totally confidential until the very last minute.

If the owner attempts to sell the business himself, by default he has identified that his business is for sale. Competitors would love to have this information. Bankers get nervous. Employees get nervous. Customers get nervous. Suppliers get nervous. The owner has inadvertently created risk, a potential drop in business and a corresponding drop in the sale price of his business.

5. To maximize your selling price, you must get multiple buyers interested in buying your material handling business. The “typical” business sale transaction for a privately held business begins with either an unsolicited approach by a competitor or with a decision on the part of the owner to exit. If a competitor initiates the process, he typically isn’t interested in over paying for your business. In fact, just the opposite is true. He is trying to buy your business at a discount.

Outside of yourself there is no one in a better position to understand the value of your business more than a major competitor. He will try to keep the sales process limited to a negotiation of one. In our mergers and acquisitions practice the owner often approaches us after an unsolicited offer. What we have found is generally that unsolicited buyer is not the ultimate purchaser, or if he is, the final purchase price is, on average 20% higher than the original offer.

If the owner decides to exit and initiates the process, it usually begins with a communication with a trusted advisor – accountant, lawyer, banker, or financial advisor. Let’s say that the owner is considering selling his business and he tells his banker. The well- meaning banker says, “One of my other customers is also in your industry. Why don’t I provide you an introduction?” If the introduction results in a negotiation of one, it is unlikely that you will get the highest and best the market has to offer.

You may have spent your life’s work building your material handling business to provide you the income, wealth creation, and legacy that you had planned and hoped for. You prepared and were competitive and tireless in your approach. You have one final act in your business. Make that your final business success. Exit on purpose and do it from a position of strength and receive the highest and best deal the market has to offer.

Home prices in Houston Texas have held steady while the rest of the nation is seeing an over 7 percent decrease in home prices. In the 1st quarter of the year Houston Texas saw an increase in home prices of approximately 0.8 percent. The median home price is now 148,400. This is good news if you live in Houston.

Although there is good news if you are a home owner in Houston, 0.8 percent is not much of an increase and if you purchased your house at the peak of the real estate market you can be sure that this slight increase has not had much affect in your home value. In fact even with the slight increase in home appreciation there are still many home owners who can not afford their mortgage and are falling into foreclosure.

If you are from Houston Texas than you know the hard situation you are faced with if you need to sell your house. If you purchased your home recently you probably owe more for your house than what it is worth. You can not afford your house so you know you need to sell it, the problem is who do you sell to?

Well believe it or not there are home buyers who are buying houses in Houston. Many people do not know that professional home buyers or real estate investors buy houses throughout the nation. Home buyers are real estate investors who some times buy properties and hold for long term investments, thus allowing them to pay more for your house.

If you owe more for your Houston Texas house than what it is worth then you should consider selling your house to a professional home buyer. They will negotiate with the bank to get your name released from the mortgage and complete a successful short sale. This way you will not get a foreclosure status on your credit report, which will save you lots of money and hassle in your future.

You should also consider contacting a professional home buyer if you need to sell your home fast. If you are behind on your mortgage payments, being relocated by your job, inherited a house and now want to sell it, going through a divorce, or have family health problems and need to sell your home.

There are many ways to sell your house. You can sell it For Sale By Owner, list your home with a real estate agent, or you can sell your house fast to a local home buyer. Some times the fastest and best way to sell your house is to sell to a real estate investors. This allows you to get your equity from your house fast and move on.

So if you own a Houston house, or any house for that matter and are near foreclosure, or need to sell your house for one reason or another, do not give up. Contact your local home buyer and get a free consultation on your home selling options. There is no charge for any services provided by professional home buyers so you have nothing to loose.

If you are setting up an online business then sooner or later you will wonder whether you should be writing and selling your own e-book. Here are eight reasons why you should do it.

1. Brand Awareness

When you write your own e-book and publish it online, not only is there the prestige of being able to call yourself a book author, there is also an increase in brand awareness.

Your audience will grow to recognize and trust your name, they will perceive you as more of an expert in your topic, and they will be more likely to purchase something from you in the future.

2. Good Prices

If you believe that electronic books always sell for less than their paper counterparts, think again! E-books are regularly selling for remarkably high prices.

If you don’t believe me, have a browse at the e-book marketplace at ClickBank. In this marketplace alone there are over 10,000 products for sale and many of them are e-books priced between $20 and $50.

3. Low Production Cost

E-books take an investment of time during the development stage, but once they are finished they don’t cost anything to produce. There is no manufacturing process required.

You simply place the file on a web server so that your customers can download it.

4. Low Delivery Cost

E-books are almost free to store and deliver. Have you ever worked in retail? Then you may know what is involved in maintaining a storeroom, making deliveries to customers, handling returns, and keeping track of all the stock.

When you sell e-books you need not worry about all of that. You don’t need any special storage space in your office. You only need a few megabytes on your hardrive. And you don’t have to worry about any product returns!

5. Instant Delivery

E-book delivery is instant and, like production and storage, deliver of e-books costs virtually nothing. Most customers download their e-book from the Internet immediately after completing their payment.

6. High Profit Margins

After reading the reasons given above, you should not be at all surprised to learn that e-books have very high profit margins. Once the e-book is written the only real cost you will have is a small percentage for payment processing fees.

7. Never Run Out of Stock

You will never run out of stock. That is, unless you accidentally delete your final copy of the e-book… in which case you better talk very nicely indeed to one of the customers who already purchased your e-book.

8. Instant Gratification

Customers love to buy products that they can receive immediately and selling e-books is a way of providing this instant gratification. They allow you to provide instant information, instant advice and instant solutions to your readers.

As you can see, e-books are truly a wonderful tool for online businesses. Get started on your own e-book right away.

In the past when you wanted to buy a new house you simply sold the old one. Now, its not that simple and many people are looking to retain their former house, either for financial reasons (so they can benefit from a rising property market) or personal reasons (in that they may wish to occupy the property again).

There are a number of factors that will need to be considered when weighing up whether you should simply sell the property or retain it, however how you’ll be taxed may be crucial. As well as if you should sell the property a related question is when you should sell the property. For example it’s common to keep a property and let it out for a few years after you’ve bought your new one. But in tax terms is there a definite time that you should sell this – or does it not matter if you just carry on renting it out right up until you decide to sell it?

Capital gains tax (’CGT’)

If you sold the property, after you moved out principal private residence (’PPR’) relief would cover any gain arising in full. If you decided to let the property for a number of years before disposal you may be liable to capital gains tax on the disposal dependent on the number of years absence and the gain arising.

Where an individual has occupied a property as a residence for only part of his period of ownership then a proportion of the capital gain resulting on the disposal of the property is exempt. This is calculated on the following basis:

Capital gain x period of occupation/period of ownership

In addition to the period that an individual actually occupies a property as his residence, when calculating the period of occupation there are certain deemed periods of occupation which are allowed to be taken into account.

The last 36 months of ownership would always be deemed to be occupied by you irrespective of the use of the property during this period.

There are also more ‘deemed periods of occupation’ that you could be entitled to although the qualifying conditions for these are much stricter. If you go overseas under a contract of employment, occupy the property as a main residence both before and after your period of absence, and have no other residence overseas, the entire period of absence overseas would be deemed occupation. The main time this would be likely to apply would be where you worked overseas and lived in employer provided accommodation.

If the property was let then you wouldn’t be able to establish the property as your main residence for this period. However, another form of relief is also available.

Lettings relief provides for an exemption from CGT for that part of the gain attributable to the letting in so far as it does not exceed the lower of:

 

• the tax free part of the gain under the PPR relief
• £40,000.

Therefore the position in terms of timing would be:

 

• If you were to sell the property within three years of ceasing to occupy it any gain arising would be fully covered by PPR relief.
• If you left it for more than three years but did not let it out, you’d qualify for partial PPR relief that would eliminate part of the remaining gain.
• If you left it for more than three years but did let it out you’d qualify for partial PPR relief and lettings relief which may well eliminate the remaining gain in any case.

You should also bear in mind that you would be able to claim the annual CGT exemption which could eliminate any small gain remaining.

Capital loss

In the unfortunate event that you sold the property at a loss, a loss on a main residence would not be an allowable capital loss and therefore couldn’t be offset against income or gains.

Rate of CGT

The rate of CGT is now 18%.

Rental income

If you decide to rent the property out you will be subject to income tax on the rental ‘profit’.

When calculating the rental profit, you are permitted to deduct any expenses incurred ‘wholly and exclusively’ for the purpose of the letting business. Under tax law, you are regarded as carrying on a business of letting properties.

Therefore typical expenses that you will obtain a deduction for are:

 

• Repairs to the let property
• Insurance
• Any utility bills
• Interest on a loan/mortgage used for the property.

  Note its only the interest on the mortgage that would be an allowable expense -and not the full capital repayment element of the payment.

If you incurred a rental loss this would be offset against any future rental profits arising.

Furnished v Unfurnished

There are few differences from a tax perspective whether a property is let furnished or unfurnished. The main one is that a furnished property would be entitled to the wear and tear allowance. This is a 10% reduction in the net rental income, and this could therefore result in a lower income tax charge.

Transfer to a company

A common question is whether a transfer to a company will yield any benefits.

The transfer to a UK company would realise a gain although this would be fully covered by PPR relief. On a future disposal by the company any uplift in the value of the property would be taxed in the UK company even if the disposal was only in 12 months time. You could retain ownership of the property but simply use the company just in a management capacity. This would enable some of the rent to effectively be diverted to the UK company, to be taxed at 21%. The tax saving would however be marginal unless you planned to retain the funds within the company (we have covered the use of a property service company in a separate article).

You could consider using an offshore company, however this would not offer any real advantages unless the company was controlled from overseas. If it was controlled in the UK, it would be UK resident and as such fully charged to UK corporation tax just as for a UK company.

If you could establish an overseas controlled company that traded overseas, this could be beneficial to divert part of the rental income into a tax free entity.

Emigration

You could also consider emigrating overseas. You would still be liable to UK income tax on the rental income, however providing your absence overseas was for at least five complete tax years you would not be liable to UK CGT on a disposal of the property.

Summary

When you’re considering whether to rent or sell your home, the key time period, will be the three years after you move out. Provided you sell the property within this period any gain would be automatically exempt from CGT.

If you wanted to rent it long term, ie for more than this three year period, it would then be useful to undertake an estimated CGT calculation to see if any CGT would be payable. Although you’re entitled to lettings relief as well as the annual CGT exemption these reliefs may not cover the gain arising, particularly where the gain is large.

The star that is Ebay continues to rise with its ultimate height and potential reach still unknown. What is known is that over $14 billion dollars worth of merchandise changed hands last year with more expected this year. More and more people are joining in the Ebay craze in hopes of making huge profits working for themselves. Learning the basics of how to sell on Ebay is simple and just about anyone can profit from the miracle of online auctions.

Getting Started

With millions of visitors every month, the Ebay business machine continues to be an incredible opportunity for people to go into business for themselves and succeed with very little start up capital. Essentially, all anyone needs to start selling items using their own Ebay business are: a computer with Internet access, a digital camera, and…well, something to sell!

Learning how to sell on Ebay begins with familiarizing yourself with the site by actually getting your feet wet and selling something. To do this, you will first have to register with Ebay. You will need a credit card, a checking account, and a few minutes to do this.

Listing Your Wares

Most people begin their Ebay business slowly by first selling items around the house. Once you have scoured your home in search of antiques, collectibles, or even clothing that you are no longer interested in or just want to sell, you have to list your item because online auctions just would not be as interesting without something for people to bid on!

In order to do this, you will need a product description and a photo of the item(s) being sold. This description needs to be accurate while still casting your product in the best light possible. Misrepresenting your item can cut your Ebay business experience short because customer feedback is listed for all to see. One or two really scathing reviews, especially in the beginning, can kill your chances of selling things on Ebay auctions in the future.

You are also going to need a picture of your item because this will be the only way for a potential buyer to have an idea about what they are bidding on other than your description. Be sure to capture the true essence of the item with this picture because you will get negative feedback for sure if people think they were conned by some slickster with a digital camera taking pictures that do not really represent the item being sold.

Monitor Bidding

Obviously, learning how to sell on Ebay means mastering the bidding process itself. You will need to determine whether or not to set a minimum bid amount or even to opt for something like the “Buy Now” option which allows people to buy an item at a listed price without going through the bidding process.

Regardless of what option you choose when auction selling, you will have to be available for questions that customers have about your item. Respond to these as quickly as possible and try to provide the most useful information you can while still answering their questions.

Conclude Transaction

After the bidding has ended it is time to collect your money and ship the item to the customer. Be sure to have posted sales policies and payment options so that customers know what they are getting into when bidding on your items. People are naturally a little skeptical of online auctions anyway because they are bidding on something that they cannot see or touch. You do not want to surprise them with high shipping costs or complicated payment options.

You may want to include a little note or even a flyer about your business to help cultivate good will with the buyer. Remember, positive feedback is critical to the success of any Ebay business and yours will be no exception. Once you run of out things to sell from your own household, it is time to take your Ebay store to the next level by locating more items to sell so you can keep those profits rolling in!

There’s more to selling a home than putting up a “For Sale” sign and waiting for people to make offers. If want to sell your home, you need to be aware of the many local and state laws and various regulations attached to selling property. You have be knowledgeable about real estate contracts and know every step involved with regards to inspection, financial considerations, and legal paperwork.

For a real estate contract between two parties to be legal, for example, it must have the following elements:

1) At least TWO parties of sound mind in agreement of the contract – the buyer and the seller

2) Legal identification to verify legal signatures on all paperwork

3) The correct address of the property for sale

4) All agreements with regards to the sale and promises of payment made in writing and signed

5) Unqualified understanding between the buyer and seller so each is aware of payment schedules and other considerations

Coming to an understanding with a potential home buyer is one thing. When you consider going the For Sale By Owner route, you also need to be aware of the many laws attached to selling a house. Local and county laws may vary according to where you live, but there are at least twelve worth researching before you put up your sign:

Seller Disclosure Laws – By law, you are required to inform any potential buyers of damage or other problems with the home that may impact its value in the future. If the house will be in need of a new roof in a year, or if there are cracks in the foundation that need repair, you are obliged to let buyers know.

Lead Base Paint Disclosure – Similar to the Seller Disclosure, if lead-based paint has been used in your home, you are required to inform all potential buyers of this.

Federal Fair Housing Laws – In accordance with Title VIII of the Civil Rights Act, it is illegal to discriminate against a potential home buyer based upon race or color, gender, creed, nationality or handicap. These laws prevent refusal of a sale or price adjustment of a home based upon these factors.

State and Local Housing Laws – Your particular region may have specific laws relating to the sale of homes in the area. It is highly recommend to research any possible regulations that may affect your ability to sell on your own.

Advertising and Marketing Laws – If you plan to take on the advertising of your home sale by yourself, you may need to be aware of certain regulations applicable to your area. If you are placing a newspaper or magazine ad, you may be required to disclose specific information about your home. Do your homework!

Real Estate Contract Law – Is the contract you have with your potential buyer valid? Are there any hidden clauses that may come back to haunt you later? Know what your sale contract says and means before it is signed.

Zoning and Local Ordinance Laws – The sale of your home may be subject to various zoning laws and ordinances in your area. For example, a buyer may want your house for a home-based business or for charity purposes, but the laws in your town may not permit that. Research what regulations are applicable to your property before you sell.

Occupancy Laws – Is your home subject to occupancy laws? Can you legally sell your house to more than one family unit? Before you put your house up for sale, make sure you research any occupancy limits and restrictions.

Building Code Laws – Is your home “up to code”? In other words, is the house compliant to all safety and health codes? Have any repairs and remodeling work been done to the house, and if so were they done with the required materials? It is not legal to sell an unsafe home, so make sure any construction done before the sale is completed safely and correctly.

Environmental Rules and Regulations – Is there anything in your home that poses a potential environmental hazard? Is the construction of your home sound and free of asbestos and other harmful elements? Make sure you know what is considered toxic in your area, and that it’s not in your home!

Stigmatized Property Laws – Was your home the scene of a murder or other disastrous crime? Is your home a local legend in that people believe it’s haunted or cursed? It may sound amusing, but sometimes it can be difficult to sell property that has been “stigmatized” by gossip and legend. If your house has such a legacy, it is best to research any disclosure laws that apply to the sale. If somebody was murdered in your home, for example, you may have to disclose that to a buyer.

Governmental Rights and Real Property Laws – Each state has its own laws with regards to the definition of “real property.” It is suggested all potential sellers know how their states interpret what is real property as opposed to “personal property.” This may affect certain appliances in the house to convey with the sale, or property lines. Governmental rights laws may be put into effect if the government is interested in acquiring property for various purposes (i.e. you own a parcel of land where an interstate is to be built). Read up on these laws before you sell.

Selling a home can be a daunting process, made all the more difficult if you are not aware of the many laws in your area that bind you to certain obligations. So before you hang that sign, make certain you are knowledgeable about the implications behind it. Having the law on your side will make for a smoother sell.

These days, financial difficulties are faced with several options of solutions to choose from.

ONLINE BUY:

Now all we are frequently taking about inflation and investment which are indirectly proportional to each other. When inflation rises the investment will go down. When inflation reduces the investment will get up towards high.

When buyers procure an item or some product he indirectly gives some loss or profit to seller. Also he makes some plan to make some profit with which he bought. No one can say the real cost of some products. It will be somewhat 200 to 500% lesser than what we have in market. In some of product the real cost is unimaginable like petroleum.

The most common method of selling a home is to list it with a realtor. You the home owner, do very little work in finding the buyer. The realtor does this by entering your home in the multiple listing service or MLS; a real estate computer data base. The MLS is extensive and open to the puplic for searching and viewing, but restricted to realtors for data input. Only a licensed realtor can enter your house into the system, which they would love to do with a signed listing agreement, their commission insurance policy. MLS is a great tool and in the hands of a good agent has sold many houses. Be sure to pick a good realtor. This will either make your selling experience a happy, pleasant one or a misserable, regrettable one. Choose a true professional, one with a good success record and not one of the 85% who are amateurs. If you are confident you have a good agent, go ahead and list it for six months. If you are not sure about their selling ability, then list for three months or less. And be careful about the initial listing price. A professional will be truthful and realistic about what your house is really worth. An amateur will promise you “pie in the sky” just to get the listing and then lower it after it sits on the market for a while. The danger with a high initial listing is that the good potential buyers have, in their minds, written off your house as overpriced and most will not return for a second look after the price is lowered.

The second way is to do it yourself. This is called a FSBO which means, “For Sale By Owner.” Selling the house on your own can save you a 6% sales commissions, but marketing a house requires action and know how. When my company sells one of our houses we run an ad in the newspaper, canvas the neighborhood with flyers and do open houses both Saturday and Sunday every weekend until we find a buyer who can qualify for a new loan. And we don’t take their word for it. We investigate the buyer’s financial strength ourselves to make sure they are actually loan worthy before signing a contract. The most effective selling tool is the open house. Plan it out! Start at 2 pm and go to 6 pm. Map it out! Put up lots and lots of arrow signs on the main roads and all along the way to lead prospects right to the front door. Deck it out! Stage the house with floor rugs in the living room, towels in the bathroom, dishes and glasses arranged in the kitchen, music and cinnamon potpourri all around and anything else you can think of to make the home feel warm and cozy. If the house is already lived in make sure it is clean and neat. Figure it out! Have sales sheets ready with all details printed. Have a mortgage person ready to verify financials over the phone. Have a completed seller’s disclosure, and have a blank contract ready to sign.

If you get no results with the MLS or FSBO then you could try leasing your house to a qualified buyer and give them an option to purchase at a later date. This method is called a lease/option and it has its pros and cons. The pros are your house will be occupied by someone who will take good care of it because one day it will be theirs. Also your monthly payment is covered so you are not making two payments. And a lease/option buyer is easier to find than someone who can qualify for a new loan. The cons are you do not get your money up front so if you need to get your equity, this method is not for you. And realistically, most lease/option buyers never go on to exercise their option and close. Which means at some point in the future you will be doing it all over again.

The 4th and final method for selling your house is to call a professional investor. The good thing about investors is you don’t have to do any repairs. You can sell the house “as is” “with all faults.” Those faults, if extensive, will make the house unloanable. But with ivestors leaky roofs, moldy walls, cracked slabs, aluminum wiring, blown a/c compressors, outdated kitchens and bathrooms or whatever else may be an issue with you is not an issue with them. With an investor you don’t have to worry about getting your buyer a new loan because your buyer is an investor who pays cash! Usually they can close in less than a week. The bad part is you will not get as high a price as you would with a retail, new-loan buyer. But when your house is not new-loan worthy, an ivestor is the way to go. If this is your situation I would be glad to make you a fair offer, pay all cash and close in less than a week.

Home ownership is the most exciting prospect facing young couples and individuals today. Unfortunately, keeping your home is not as easy as it once was. The fluctuating interest rates, shaky economy and high cost of home ownership puts many people in financial jeopardy. If you’re having financial difficulties resulting in being unable to keep up with your mortgage payments, you may be facing foreclosure and repossession of your home. Fortunately, there are ways to stop repossession.

The most important way to try to stop repossession is to stay in contact with your lender. Explaining your financial situation to your lender can allow them to work with you in finding ways to help you including deferral of payments or refinancing for better loan terms. However, sometimes even with these options available, you’ll still find yourself facing repossession. Options you may want to consider to stop repossession is the sell and rent back or the sell and buy back option. Although this process may seem unfamiliar to many, it’s becoming a widely used practice with many advantages, the most obvious being able to stay in their home.

Sell and rent back involves selling your home to a cash buyer. When you’re facing repossession, you usually don’t often have much time from when the foreclosure process begins to when the actual repossession takes place. Keep in mind, however, that you can also stop repossession at any time by paying the arrears on your mortgage. Arrears are the amount that you are past due plus any late fees and fines. Once the repossession takes place, the bank will usually sell your home at public auction to the highest bidder. Many times the home is sold for less than you owe, leaving you still owing the bank money for many years. The best way to stop repossession is to sell your home quickly for cash. This enables you to pay off your mortgage and, often, have leftover cash to do with what you want.

Many sell and rent back companies are available today to help you. They purchase your home at less than the market value and rent it back to you. Although you will be losing equity by selling your home at less than market value, you’ll be able to stay in your home. With the sell and buy back option; you have the option to buy your home back when your financial situation improves. In most sell and buy back options; you can buy your home back below market value. Although this is the most common method used, each company may have a slightly different principle involved. For instance, one company may allow you to buy back your home at the same price they purchased it from you, while another may use a certain percentage such as 85% of market value. Whichever method they use, make sure you get this in writing.

It’s important to always have a contract in sell and rent back or sell and buy back options. Check out the companies you’re considering doing business with. Many unscrupulous companies will offer you full price on your home and a very low rent on your home. They’re not making any money this way so they’d have no reason to offer you this other than to rip you off. What they do is offer you a high price for your home, but any profit after paying off the mortgage will be kept for a few years while you’re renting from them. However, after a year or, possibly less, they evict you for some reason. Because you’re no longer their tenant, you’ve lost the rights to the profit from your home sale as well as the rights to buy back your home. Therefore, be sure of whom you enter into a sell and rent back or sell and buy back offer. Always, insist on a contract and insist they pay any legal fees. If they’re a trustworthy company, they’ll agree to this. One method of determining if you want to do business with this person or company is to ask yourself if this is someone you would want as your landlord for a few years.

If possible, you may want to check with other people that have been involved with this company or person in a sell and buy back or sell and rent back procedure. The internet is a great source of information. Use it to your advantage and do some checking.

There are advantages and disadvantages to sell and rent back or sell and buy back options, so you may want to speak with an attorney for legal advice. In some situations, these options may be your only way to stop repossession and preserve your credit rating. With a good credit rating, you may be able to get a mortgage in the future to buy back your home.
