The total cost for the home is $137,000 and I have been pre-aproved but I wasn’t told for how much the loanwould be. I was told that my total downpayment would be between $10,000 to $12,000 I have given my information and also just recently gave $3000 to start the process of the paperwork and etc I was also told that if I decide to stop the paper work or just cancel everything I would loose my $3000, but heres what I found “fishy” from them I wasn’t told about programs that they are for 1st time home buyers, loan options,.Now heres were I need help from you guys or tips, suggestions or precautions that I should know or do before signing the closing papers.

1. Is there any possible way that I can bring a RE agent to help me with the closing papers and tell me whats right or not right for me?
2. Do I have an option to shop for a Loan from another lender besides Countrywide?

KB HOMES!!! Give me your input please!!?

11 May

My husband and I have been looking at building here in NC just outside of Raleigh. We found a neighborhood which is being developed by KB Homes. LOVED LOVED the model, signed a contract, left an ernest check and went to pick out our options yesterday.

Everything was going great until of course we saw the total and that we were to leave a 10% deposit when we finalize everything. Of course something we were never told. They did pull the bait and switch.

After getting home we managed to cut down the options list in half but we are still over by $10K of what we were approved for, we were told that if we did not get approved they would give our earnest check back? Has anyone dealt with this??!!

Any good comments on KB?? All I have been reading is negative!!
PS. we are using our own lender if that matters…not KBs
Their are an engery star builder, I will not use their lender Countrywide, as I used to do foreclosures and also do mortgages.

Contract does state if we are not approved we get the money back.

I have managed to cut down our costs but we are still over the approval.
I will not use Countrywide because I am not a fan of their company.

I am using my own lender as personal choice. We have received a WONDERFUL rate.

I did not know about the 2.5% thanks for that info.

Any advice, tips, or stories on building your own house/buying modular homes?

06 May

We want to buy a chunk of land and get a custom/modular home built on it.. Does anybody have any suggestions, tips, websites to look at, or just plain person stories of your own experience with doing this? Anything would be helpful. Thanks.
Oh, and, insight on the expected costs would be helpful as well.

We absolutely love the scent that the home builder “Darling Homes” uses — any clues what it is? The home consultant wouldn’t tell us…

What’s the best way to get into selling new construction homes?

29 Apr

I currently am just getting started in real estate. I would like to work for a builder instead of general agency like Century 21 or RE/MAX. Has anyone done both of these type of sales? I would like some one to answer who has experience, not looking for “well, it’s not the best time to get into real estate.” New home sales Vs. Pre-home sales if that makes sense. Thank you.
