Testimonials
"I would like to express my deep appreciation for the assistance I received from your associate, Joe Boguszewski, in connection with my purchase of a unit in Harbor Towers. For a European unfamiliar with the way property is transacted in Florida, it is of decisive importance to obtain professional and reliable advise and assistance of the highest quality. Thanks to the excellent advice and assistance of Mr. Boguszewski, I am today owner of an apartment in your beautiful sunny state."

Do we really need a Buyer Agent , when buying a New Home.?

Joseph Boguszewski answered:
It is always beneficial to have an experienced realtor with you to be the eyes and ears for your purchase and know the details about what you are getting and what you should be getting before you sign a contract. Don't forget that the commission is being paid by the builder / seller whether you have a realtor there or not. The price is still the same. - Mon Aug 25 2008, 13:06

How does seller financing work and what are the pros & cons?

Joseph Boguszewski answered:
It is alway more advantageous to use owner financiaing if you have a Seller willing to do so.
You will need to give the Seller a down payment. Or, you can agree to a lease purchase where 10%, 20% or more of your monthly rental will go toward the down payment amount. Once you have reached the initial down payment figure with the Sellers, you can then purchase the property with owner financing or with a mortgage from a financial insitution. It is always better to utilize ower financing. - Mon Aug 25 2008, 12:57
Joseph Boguszewski answered:
In my experience, sellers are more responsive to a written offer than a verbal one. One is more likely to go further in the negotiation with a written offer. - Mon Aug 25 2008, 12:17
