It's Time To Buy!

If you are considering buying a home, NOW is the time! Prices are low. Given the increase in the number of pending sales, it is very possible that our area has reached the bottom of the decline cycle. Mortgage rates are still very low and seller concessions can often be found to help cover some of the buying expenses. With this in mind, it is clear that this is the best time to invest in your new home!

I specialize in solving the follow problems:

  • Foreclosure
  • Divorce or Separation
  • Probate Real Estate Sales
  • Homes Needing Repair (Ugly Houses)

Call me. I can help.

If you would like to have MLS listings sent directly to you daily, click the following JustListed Button below and tell me what you would like to buy and where. I'll hook you up! I specialize in assisting home buyers to find their perfect home at less than market value.

As an experienced Realtor®, real estate investor and a licensed mortgage broker, I'm uniquely qualified to serve all of your real estate needs. I assist both sellers and buyers. If selling, I'll work hard to get your home sold quickly, with little hassle and for the most money. If your home does not sell, I may be able to help by making a cash offer! Call me today at 727-459-5460.


 

Struggling Home Owners

If you are a homeowner having a hard time paying for and maintaining your home, you need to know what your options are. You may need to take action RIGHT AWAY.Give me a call at 727-459-5460 or send me an email with a good time to talk and I'll tell you first how you can possibly work with the lender to improve your situation. If you get in touch with the right people at you're lender early in the process, you can often work out a solution that allows you to keep your home.

If that doesn't work, I have connections with a group of investors that specialize in working with the lender to set a price that allows them to purchase your home at a price that gives them a profit and sells your home quickly to prevent you from having a foreclosure on your credit. They also pay to help you restore your credit so you will be able to purchase another home in a short period of time.

Another option may be for me to possibly make an offer to buy your home and save your credit. Remember, the key is to do something as soon as you know you are in trouble. If you would like to learn more ways to save your credit and perhaps your home, call me. I can help!     (727) 459-5460

 

Buying Foreclosures

If you are interested in buying bank owned homes or pre-foreclosure homes, call me.(727-459-5460) I watch the listings daily and I'm prepared to show you houses. Please keep in mind that it does take longer to get bank approvals if a home is being sold on a "Short Sale", meaning the bank is agreeing to take less than what is owed on the home. You can be looking at as much as 3-4 months depending on the bank and the offer. Lenders are so backlogged that you may wait much longer than the normal time frame for closing on a home.

As you can see, there are plenty of reasons to allow me to professionally represent you! Why not call me today at 727-459-5460?

 

PreApproval

  • If you're considering buying a home, the first step is to get preapproved for a loan. Most sellers request a preapproval letter from your lender be submitted with offers. Having a letter gives you an advantage when negotiating with sellers. Click the link below to complete your short form and get your no obligation preapproval letter now. (You can also apply to refinance your home by clicking this link.)

PORTABILITY

How many Floridians understand property tax portability? "Most of the buyers I have dealt with - I've been educating them," says Realtor Steve Fruit in Highlands County. "A few seem to be conversant about Save Our Homes, but it's amazing how many don't know about it."
