Diana, Home Buyer in San Diego, CA

Is this property still for sale as of 1/7/09?

Asked Tue Jan 6 2009, 21:54 by Diana  -  Property Q&A in Mesa  -  4 answers
Karen Simms answered:
Diana, Address is1542 W. Posada Ave. in the North Forty subdivision. Auction date delayed to 12-23-08. Current county records still shows previous owner. It will be 30 days before the property will record in the new owners name. If the bank took the property back, it's possible this property could be back on the market for sale within 30-60 days. - Wed Jan 7 2009, 00:17

Would this house pass a FHA? everlvrz@yahoo.com

Asked Sat Dec 27 2008, 20:22 by Ever Alvarez  -  Property Q&A in Mesa  -  6 answers
Karen Simms answered:
It's possible. There is a FHA loan, 203k, available to do repairs after the close of escrow, IF this home qualifies. Your realtor could give you additional information on this. Below is a link to the FHA 203k requirements and information. Hope this is helpful. Good luck! - Sun Dec 28 2008, 08:13

Question removed

Asked Fri Jul 11 2008, 06:16 by Eileen  -  Home Selling in 85208  -  5 answers
Karen Simms answered:
Eileen,

There are several issues which could be a factor to why the home is not selling. While price, location, condition and advertising are important, manufactured homes have other issues which could effect a sale. If it's an older manufactured home it may be difficult for a buyer to obtain financing. Is the home "affixed" to the property and how much is the monthly "pad" rental fee? If you are selling this home on your own, how accessible is the property for showing? Is the home being maintained on the outside for good curb appeal? A home sold through a professional usually sells for more money in less time.

Good luck! - Fri Jul 11 2008, 15:45
