Is this property for sale?

Asked Sun Oct 12 2008, 08:22 by Bennii - 33165 - Home Buying - 1 answer

Melanie Dawn Molina Wood answered:

It does not appear to be. It is not in the Multiple Listing Service database, so it is definitely not listed by a Realtor. There is a possibility it is a "fsbo" but it is odd that there is no asking price or contact information.

If you would like assistance to find a home to buy, please give me a call at 305-801-3133 or visit my website. We have many homes that ARE available in that same area. - Sun Oct 12 2008, 09:55

does foreigners can get mortgage now days, in order to buy real estate for investment?

Asked Tue Oct 7 2008, 15:46 by Efi - 33131 - Financing - 5 answers

Melanie Dawn Molina Wood answered:

Yes! Foreign nationals typically need to put at least 30% down, but the financing is certainly available. Keep in mind that lenders are requiring 50% down for certain newer condominium developments, but that is a separate issue. Give me a call if you would like recommendations for several lenders specializing in loans for foreign nationals. 305-801-3133 - Tue Oct 7 2008, 18:01

ARE THERE ANY LIENS (I.E. TAXES, MORTGAGES) THAT THE PURCHASER HAS TO ASSUME/PAY UPON DEED EXECUTION?

Asked Fri Oct 3 2008, 10:09 by Otto B. Garr… - 33134 - Home Buying - 1 answer

Melanie Dawn Molina Wood answered:

If they are not cleared at the time of closing by the Seller, all liens against a property become the responsibility of the buyer. This is why having a title/lien & permit search & title insurance policy is so important if you are the buyer. In addition, an unpaid water bill can create a lien against the property even if the water bill belonged to the previous owner or tenant. - Fri Oct 3 2008, 10:25

Melanie Dawn Molina Wood answered:

I've never heard of a condominium building completely forbidding rentals, but you need to take a look at your condominium documents for any restrictions. Some condominium associations restrict owners to one lease per year even if a tenant vacates early. If, for instance, you had your unit rented with a one-year lease but the tenant vacated after only 9 months, you would still have to wait until the full year was past before being able to lease out your property again.

Other associations may restrict a property owner from renting out their unit until they have owned it for one or two years. This is to encourage 'owner-occupants' which improves the value of the property and makes the units easier to buy and sell.

Do check the actual condominium documents (and any updated regulations) because your management company may be misadvising you. But do not disregard the written restrictions because it could land you in expensive legal trouble with your association. - Mon Sep 29 2008, 11:57

I would like to move to Kendall, Florida. What are the best neighborhoods and quality homes?

Asked Sat Sep 27 2008, 19:38 by M. Rojas - 33186 - Home Buying - 4 answers

Melanie Dawn Molina Wood answered:

Good morning! Kendall is an unincorporated area of Miami-Dade that is usually divided further into West Kendall and East Kendall. Kendall, in general, has a variety of single family homes, townhouse, and condominiums; some in gated communities. We also have "Downtown Kendall" with high & mid-rise condominiums in a more urban environment. Kendall boasts numerous "A" rated public schools, an excellent hospital, the second largest campus of Miami-Dade College. Kendall is my speciality and I grew up here. Please give me a call or email me so we can discuss exactly what type of home & amenties you are looking for so I can better advise you as to what neighborhoods you will want to look at. I can easily be reached at 305-801-3133 or Melanie.Wood@FloridaMoves.com - Sun Sep 28 2008, 08:29
