Should I buy a short sale?

Q:  Friends have told me that there are some great deals to be had right now in homes offered as a short sale.  What is a short sale? Should we be wary of one?

A:  In a short sale, a buyer pays less than the amount a seller owes the lender.

There are more cases of ‘short selling’ in markets where home values are dropping as in many areas of the country today.

Typically, when a homeowner can’t pay his mortgage because he has suffered some sort of hardship — loss of a job or divorce for example — he simply sells his home.  But when home values are dropping, this can be a problem. In some cases, a homeowner might find he owes more on his mortgage than his home will sell for.  In these cases, lenders will be asked to accept less than the amount owed on the home, assuming the homeowner doesn’t have other assets that can be sold to make up the difference. The lender then doesn’t have to go to the expense of going through the foreclosure process.

The question you have to ask yourself is: Are you really getting a great deal?

If the house was purchased at the peak of rising home values, then the homeowner might have paid a premium price for the property.  Since values are dropping today, the lender may not be able to discount the value to a price that is attractive.  It is important to do your homework and compare the true current market value to the price offered.  In most cases, you may be able to purchase the property at a discount from the current market value if the lender (or lenders) agree and there are no other liens or encumbrances on the property (taxes, HOA fees, mechanics liens, etc.)

Probably the most important thing you can do if you decide to purchase a short sale is to team up with a Realtor that is experienced in short sales and can find out from the seller or the seller’s Realtor, the circumstances of this particular sale.  Armed with the right information as well as knowledge of the lender(s) track record, your Realtor can give you a much better idea of the odds for a successful short sale.

If you have the patience, as this can be a time-consuming process, and select good representation, you can expect a very good deal when pursuing a short sale.

Q: Is buying a home the best investment?

Q: Is buying a home the best investment?

A:  Home buying is not always the best investmentis buying a home the best investment

Buying a home is often called the American dream. But for those who buy with a 3.5 percent down payment (or for those who can find it with no down payment at all), it can be a poor proposition.

A Harvard University study of home sales in Philadelphia, Boston, Denver, and Chicago found that sellers of low-priced homes lost money up to 40 percent of the time once transaction costs were included.

Economists at Wellesley College say whether home ownership is a good or bad investment often depends on the time of purchase. The odds of taking a loss are higher if the seller bought after home prices had already risen and if the buyer stayed in the home for only a few years.

Regular investing in stocks and bonds could be a better alternative. Returns on housing tend to be lower than returns on stocks. The risk of losing money is high when most of a family’s wealth is tied up in a single asset.

Some Factors to consider:

* When satisfactory rentals are not available, buying a family home could be the best option in any case.

* Owning a home can cost more than renting when house payments, taxes, insurance, and maintenance are considered.

* For those who don’t plan to stay in a home for seven years or more, the risk of losing money on a home sale is higher.

* Lower-income buyers may not benefit from the tax deduction for interest because their standard deduction is a better deal.

* Home-equity loans could mean little forced saving or equity building.

* Those who make a small down payment may pay higher mortgage interest rates and the cost of mortgage insurance.

Over time, buying a home can be a good wealth-building strategy. When housing prices rise, the owner benefits. But housing prices don’t rise very much in some areas, and many people don’t stay in a home long enough to build equity.
