Any advice for someone that would like to approach the landlord of the house he is renting about buying it?

Asked Thu Dec 27 2007, 01:25 by Raven - 95818 - Home Buying - 4 answers

Wendy Taylor, CRS, GRI answered:

I have a client in a similar situation. I pulled the title on the property and then made a market analysis for him based on similar properties that had sold within the last few months. Knowledge is power and I would encourage you to contact a local REALTOR who can help you gain the knowledge you will need to successfully purchase a property. REALTOR's can act on your behalf in many ways. You have an established relationship with your Landlord and know the property that you are interested in purchasing. I would encourage you to find a REALTOR who will help you with this transaction and give you the guidance that you need. - Thu Dec 27 2007, 03:35

What is the standard % to put down for Earnest money in Los Angeles?

Asked Wed Dec 12 2007, 23:23 by Kelly - 90068 - Home Buying - 7 answers

Wendy Taylor, CRS, GRI answered:

3% is standard in LA but it is a buyer's market. The more important part of the picture is "Can you close on this property" Some buyers wire in their money and show proof of funds and never write a check. The earnest money represents to the seller the seriousness of the buyer to purchase the property. I hope you have a great agent who can negotiate what you want to purchase.

Good luck! - Wed Dec 19 2007, 09:38

HOW DO WE LET OTHER FELLOW REALTORS TO REALIZE IT'S A BUYERS MARKET NOT A SELLERS MARKET?

Asked Wed Dec 12 2007, 11:45 by Juan Garcia - Sacramento - Home Selling - 16 answers

Wendy Taylor, CRS, GRI answered:

Fellow Realtors I do believe all know quite well that it is a buyers market. Title and escrow are traditionally the sellers choice. - Wed Dec 12 2007, 11:49

what do you do when it is time for the buyer to remove contingencies if the loan is not yet approved and the?

Asked Wed Dec 12 2007, 10:47 by Nanyme - California - Home Selling - 5 answers

Wendy Taylor, CRS, GRI answered:

I have been in this situation - I would advise putting a monetary penalty on the buyer for not performing. Money speaks. The purchase agreement is a legal contract with specific time frames. The time frames are for both buyer and seller to understand what and when actions are going to take place. When a time gets changed it can be the sign that things are going sour. Unfulfilled escrows punish a seller. - Wed Dec 12 2007, 11:35

My boyfriend and I are interested in buying a weekend/country home for our first home, since it is too

Asked Tue Dec 11 2007, 20:50 by Kathy - Silver Lake - Home Buying - 5 answers

Wendy Taylor, CRS, GRI answered:

Hi Kathy

I just sold a house in Mt. Washington for around $600,000. I realize you live in Silverlake and that area can be quite expensive. There are choices, just not easy ones in owning a first house in LA.

You can chose to own an investment property in another area - I have some clients who have purchased to "be in the real estate market." They are building equity and with their CPA's advice learning how to use their money wisely.

I wish you the best. - Wed Dec 12 2007, 10:08
