RE/MAX 2012 Top 10 Housing Predictions

5 Easy Steps for Getting Ready to Buy Highlands Ranch real estate

If you are planning to buy real estate in Highlands Ranch there are 5 easy steps that you should take.

Lisa Escue (CDPE), with RE/MAX Masters II, outlines these steps:

Step 1. Find a Local Lender You Can Talk To in Person. Local lenders understand your market and know of loan programs that might be beneficial to you.

Check with your lender on any local programs that might help with closing costs or in other ways. Even though the media have pronounced the 100-percent-financing option dead, this is not always the case. Check it out for yourself and then get preapproved for a loan so you know how much house in Highlands Ranch you’re able to buy.

Step 2. Be Specific in the Area You Want To Live in Highlands Ranch. Educate yourself. Familiarize yourself with the neighborhoods you’re interested in, the taxes and school districts. This not only helps you narrow down your search when you need to move fast, but also helps you figure out potential mortgage payments. Find a home in your desired neighborhoods.

Step 3. Find an Agent Specializing in Highlands Ranch real estate. This will save you time and effort. Once you’ve identified a real estate agent, trust him or her to do the job. Agents who are thriving in this challenging market have proven their worth. They have the resources and skills to help you find your next home.

Step 4. Don’t Shy Away From Houses That Need Some Work. Just because a house needs some paint or cosmetic fixes doesn’t mean it’s not a good buy. Most real estate agents have an address book full of trusted businesses they work with to help you fix up your new home. There’s an HUD program known as 203(k) that enables you to fold repair money into a primary mortgage; ask a RE/MAX agent in your market about the program.

Step 5. Be Prepared To Act. Sometimes the first home you see in Highlands Ranch is the right one for you. Don’t discount it. Remember, good deals still go fast. Take advantage of the electronic tools your real estate agent has to offer. In many instances, real estate agents have access to better information than what you can find in a standard Internet search.

J. D. Power ranks RE/MAX No. 1

DENVER, CO – Results from the J.D. Power and Associates 2011 Home Buyer/Seller StudySM, recognize RE/MAX for providing the highest overall consumer satisfaction for both home buyers and home sellers. In last year’s study, two different companies ranked the highest in each category, but this year home buyers and sellers both rated RE/MAX the highest.

“It all comes down to professionalism and a commitment to a premier level of customer service,” said RE/MAX Chairman and Co-Founder Dave Liniger. “Because RE/MAX agents average more experience and training than other agents, they are better prepared to deal with home buyers and sellers in any kind of market. And, consumer preferences tell the story . . . nobody sells more real estate than RE/MAX.” This is the fourth annual study of home buyer and seller satisfaction with the largest national real estate companies, conducted by J.D. Power and Associates.

For the home buying experience, three factors were considered: agent/salesperson, office and a variety of additional services. Four factors were examined for the home-selling experience: agent/salesperson, marketing, office and a variety of additional services.

I buy houses in GOOD SHAPE!

 

I buy houses in good shape in good neighborhoods. Since I buy and turn houses around quickly, I don’t have time to waste. Nice houses in good neighborhoods sell faster and I don’t need to make cut-throat offers to make a profit.

I prefer to buy between $100,000 and $125,000, three bedrooms, two baths (one bath is acceptable). Cities of Aurora, Denver, Lakewood, Littleton, Westminster, etc. in Colorado.
