Auditioning For the Stage

09.07.10 by


A “staged” home always makes an impression on buyers, and it’s a marketing tool you should consider, particularly if you’ll be moved out of your Treasure Coast Florida Home while it’s listed for sale.  Your real estate agent may already have connections to staging professionals, but if you’re going to conduct your own interviews, here are some points to cover.

First, it’s an absolute must to meet in person and to see their portfolio.  Many stagers often have specialties, so you’ll want to know what experience they have preparing your type of home, and working with listings that are in your selling price range.  You want to be sure that the furnishings and decor that they provide are appropriate for your setting.

Next, focus on the stager’s training and background.  Since this realty-related industry is largely unregulated, you’ll need to ask if they have been trained, and if they have any certifications.  If the stager you’re interviewing also has some background in real estate, that’s a bonus, because there’s more to marketing your home than interior appeal, and any other ideas they can bring to the table won’t hurt.

Ultimately, it may be simpler for you to just ask your real estate agent for recommendations because it’s likely that the agent has already screened stagers for skill and professionalism, and can make a perfect match for your needs.

The Impact of Escrow and PMI

09.02.10 by

The Impact of Escrow and PMI


As you plan to buy your Treasure Coast Florida home, seek pre-approval for financing so that you’ll know how much home you can afford and how much to budget for monthly mortgage payments.  Aside from the financed amount, some other regular expenses associated with home ownership will also impact your payment amount.

First is homeowner’s insurance which provides protection against fire and theft.  Flood insurance is another beast entirely, and may be required depending on your new home’s location.  Remember that you can save money by carrying your auto and homeowners insurance policies with the same company.

Just like insurance, your lender also collects funds each month for property taxes, but you’ll appreciate paying them if you ever need to call the police or fire department, or send your kids to a local school!  The lender will hold the insurance and tax funds in escrow until the bills are due to be paid on your behalf.

Finally, if your down payment is less than 20 percent of the loan value, you’ll likely pay PMI or private mortgage insurance early on.  PMI is insurance for the lender against your risk of default and might add a couple of hundred dollars to your payment, depending on the size of your loan.

Don’t worry, these costs are bearable as long as you’re prepared for them and you do your planning before making your purchase.  Homeownership on Florida’s Treasure Coast is very affordable today, but you will need to do your homework and seek the advice of trusted local professionals.
