Christina, Home Buyer in Marina

what is the average payment a month for a 600,000 home?

Asked Tue Sep 23 2008, 12:41 by Christina  -  Marina  -  Home Buying  -  2 answers
Neil @ Trulia answered:
This would depend on how much you put down and the interest rate you receive for your mortgage. The mortgage calculator should help with figuring this one out =) - Tue Sep 23 2008, 13:05

Realtors: How do you feel about using online video to market your listings?

Asked Wed Jul 9 2008, 14:15 by Michael Bies…  -  San Francisco  -  Tech Tips  -  10 answers
Neil @ Trulia answered:
I definitely think that savvy agents who have several listings and clients to handle would prefer to hire a professional video producer than do it themselves. 1 hour less filming for an agent = 1 more hour generating leads, open houses, or even relaxing ^^. This is however probably for the more busy agents in the higher end markets. Very creative logo!

Margaret God…, Home Buyer in 32210

Is it unreasonable to ask a seller to pay all closing costs?

Asked Thu Jul 10 2008, 20:31 by Margaret God…  -  32220  -  Home Buying  -  18 answers
Neil @ Trulia answered:
In areas that people are dumping real estate, it is more likely than not you can negotiate for the seller to pay closing costs. This also depends on how much they want to sell it also, but it is not unreasonable. Some people even openly offer seller pays closing costs.

Does a pre-approval with a good faith estimate mean you are defintely approved for a mortgage?

It is like you are pre qualified for up to a $10,000 credit card limit*
*note restrictions apply etc.......
It is definitely more likely than not you would get a loan compared if nothing drastically changes.

Joanne, Just Looking in 17522

Is there a way to purchase a home as a single grad student?

Asked Thu Jul 10 2008, 20:44 by Joanne  -  Lafayette  -  Home Buying  -  6 answers
Neil @ Trulia answered:
There are definitely ways to purchase a home as a single grad student. Of course if you had all cash! If not lease to own is an option. You just have to find the right opportunity. Several people own second homes who do not want to be paying two mortgages and cannot afford to do so anymore, so I'd say you have more negotiating weight. Best way to find out if you qualify is to either talk to a mortgage broker or real estate agent. Never hurts to try =)
