Don't Go Shopping for a New Home Before You Know Exactly How Much You Can Spend!

You might have an idea of the loan payment and mortgage you can afford. But will the bank feel otherwise? It's always best to pre-qualify for a mortgage so you know exactly how much a financial institution would be willing to lend you.

In the pre-qualification process, you will find out:

- Exactly how much home or land you can afford.

- How much cash you will need for the down payment.

- The minimum down payment, and advantages of higher down payments.

- What the bank feels you can afford for a monthly payment.

We help buyers pre-qualify for mortgages every day. Simply fill out the form below to get started.

Remember: we will respect your privacy! We know this is your personal information, and we will not distribute it to anyone, other than to our preferred mortgage broker. This service is also provided free of charge, without any obligation on your part. It is part of our job as top real estate agents to offer services such as these.

Once you fill out the form, we will quickly process your information and get right back to you!

Tax Considerations >New 1031 Exchange Rules

One of the most popular "tax deferring" strategies for real estate owners who are selling one property and acquiring another is the use of Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code. It is an effective way to defer paying income tax on capital gain generated by the sale of a property when you intend to reinvest the proceeds in a similar, "like-kind" property. Almost any kind of real property is considered "like-kind" with any other real property.

A recently enacted law closes what was considered a loophole in the Section 1031 rules. In some cases, owners of investment real estate have used the 1031 Exchange to swap their investment property for real estate that could be readily converted to an owner-occupied residential property. After the exchange, they made the property into their principal residence, lived in it for a couple of years, then sold it. Now the American Job Creation Act of 2004 has ruled that properties converted from a 1031 exchange property into a residence must be held and used as a principal residence for at least five years to qualify for the tax exemption. Otherwise, the basic tax-deferring benefits of 1031 exchanges remain the same.

Consult your tax advisor for more detailed information.

Let me give you a brief overview of what I believe makes a great agent. Most agents continue to do things that were being done years ago to sell real estate. If you are looking to buy or sell and you have internet access and would like to use it during your home buying or home selling process, please shoot us an email and let’s chat for a few minutes. My goal is not to brag about my status in the company and how much I sell, it’s to make your next move as fun and painless as possible. Top agent status always seems to follow. I look forward to hearing from you.
