March 19, 2009 -  The Governments Mortgage Help Website Goes Live
 The U.S. Treasury Department went live on March 19, 2009 with its Making Home Affordable program, which aims to help home owners refinance or modify their mortgages. Making Home Affordable is part of President Obama's comprehensive strategy to get the housing market back on track. Through the Making Home Affordable Program, up to 9 million American families may be eligible to refinance or modify their loans to a payment that is affordable now and into the future. The campaign includes a website, <click here) as well as a telephone hotline number, 888-995-4673. The federal government is targeting nine million home owners whose loans are held by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.  Although the lender and/or servicer of your mortgage (where you send your payments) may be a bank or mortgage company, your loan still may be "held" by Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac.   Call your lender or click on the link above for more information.

AS A COMMON COURTESY TO ALL REAL ESTATE AGENTS, DON'T ASK YOUR BUYER AGENT (OR ANY AGENT) TO SHOW YOU HOMES IF YOU DO NOT HAVE A PRE-APPROVAL LETTER IN HAND FROM YOUR LENDER AND IF YOU ARE NOT READY TO PUT AN OFFER IN RIGHT A WAY IF YOU FIND A HOME YOU LIKE.

About For Sale By Owners (FSBO)'s)- Only about 13% of homes sold are done so by For Sale by Owner and statistics show that number is on the decline.  Most buyers know that FSBO's take on the challenge of trying to sell their own home simply to try and save paying a small commission.    After several months of open houses, paid ads and no offers, they may very well significantly lower their price in hopes of motivating a buyer.  When they reach their limit of anxiety and desperation sets in, they may end up taking less than had they listed their home with and agent who marketed the home better, sold it quicker and paid commissions after all.    For buyers, this means you may be able to purchase a FSBO home for less than it's real market value.   In other cases,,,, uniformed FSBO's price their homes too high,  and hope someone sees the sign in their their yard.   FSBO Buyers,,, for your protection, use a licensed real estate agent to represent you in the purchase of a FSBO home.   Real estate laws can be very complex and unguided decisions can be costly.  Many For Sale By Owners do not realize that they are bound by the same Fair Housing and Disclosure laws as Brokers, Agents and Lenders are and home sales have been lost because of misrepresentation and misinterpretation of what was negotiated.    We always use the official Kansas City Regional Association of Realtors approved contracts and documents, specifically written for homes sold and purchased in this area.  For your protection, don't settle for anything less.  When all is said and done, most For Sale By Owners will welcome an agent who brings them a buyer and will compensate the agent with a commission.  Let your agent contact the seller first though before you ever set foot in a FSBO home.  If the seller is not willing to compensate an agent, perhaps there are underlying factors with the home they do not want a trained and experienced real estate agent to discover.  Another reason they may not want to pay commissions,,,,they don't have to move but are simply testing the waters to see if an unrepresented buyer comes along and is willing to pay what the seller thinks their home is worth.  The best advise for you as a buyer,,,,,,have a trained real estate agent represent you in the purchase of a For Sale By Owner home.  Unlike some agents who charge their FSBO buyers and even their NON-FSBO buyers rediculous fees like contract processing fees and/or administrative fees at closing, we charge our buyers NOTHING when helping you find and buy a home!!

If you are planning on BUYING a home within the next several months, now is the time to be in discussions with an agent.  You and your agent should already be building a relationship. This way the agent can learn your taste, preferences, wants and needs and to show you the best homes when you are ready to start looking.  Your agent can also help in making sure that you are working with a good lender so when you're READY TO BUY, you know HOW MUCH YOU CAN BUY!  Not all lenders and lender fees are the same!!!  Just as you shop for a home, we strongly advise you to shop for a loan.
