    Does the Loan Type Matter?

    In this episode of the Get Me Ready to Sell podcast, we will discuss the different types of loans available with guest George Sago, vice president of mortgage at Bank Plus. We focus on how these loan types can impact sellers when considering offers. FHA loans, for example, may require more stringent appraisals and inspections, whereas conventional loans are more lenient. It's important for sellers to be aware of the potential differences and understand the specific requirements of each loan type before making a decision. Communicating with your listing agent and asking questions can help ensure a smooth selling process. 3:52 - FHA Loans5:16 - Conventional Loans8:26 - VA Loans16:24 - USDA Loans26:25 - Why this Matters

    Busted - Why Deals Fall Apart

    On today's episode of the Get Me Ready to Sell podcast, I will be discussing what happens when a deal falls apart and how to fix it, if possible. Whether you're a buyer or a seller, this information will be valuable to you. It doesn't matter that the house is under contract; unforeseen circumstances can still cause the deal to crumble. As a buyer, you may have made an offer that was accepted, or as a seller, you may have accepted a counteroffer. Either way, you were ready to move forward, but now you find yourself back at square one. In a previous episode, I addressed unexpected obstacles that can arise for sellers, but today we will focus on what specifically causes a deal to fall apart and what steps can be taken to rectify the situation, if any. So, let's dive right into it on this episode of the podcast. 4:11 - Inspections11:33 - Appraisal13:18 - Underwriting18:33 - Title Search22:54 - Cold Feet26:11 - Watch for these signs29:15 - Save the deal

    Market Update August 2023

    Thank you for joining me today as we delve into the latest housing market update for August 2023 in the United States. Without wasting any time, let's jump right in. Please note that the visuals on my screen might vary, and you might occasionally see me looking away to ensure that I cover our topic accurately. 0:58 - Consumer Survey on Home Prices6:40 - Recession and End of Moratorium = Tsunami of Foreclosures10:21 - What Actually Happened with Home Prices in 2022?18:34 - Inventory20:23 - Mortgage Rates The good news is that the decline in inflation is expected to lead to a drop in 30-year fixed mortgage rates, making homes more affordable for potential buyers. However, there's a slight cause for concern as the demand for homes is increasing while the inventory available falls short. To help you stay prepared for these changes, there are two podcasts available: "Get Me Ready To Sell" and "Get Me Ready To Buy." These podcasts provide valuable guidance for both selling and buying a home. For homeowners who acquired mortgage rates of 3% or lower, it is suggested that they consider selling their homes when rates increase to take advantage of the current market conditions. On the other hand, buyers should be proactive and listen to these podcasts or watch the YouTube videos to ensure they are ready when rates become affordable. Looking ahead to 2024, it is predicted that rates will continue to decline, attracting even more buyers and intensifying competition within the market. Therefore, it is essential to be prepared for selling or buying, regardless of whether it's happening now or in the future.
