California Real Estate

My real-estate agent (whom also is representing the seller on this particular property) is asking us for a Proof Of Funds letter. Is this unusual? Why should we let the representative of the seller know how much money we have in the bank, as I think that would impact our leverage in negotiations because the seller and the sellers agent will know how much we could possibly afford? Opinions?

I’m a 23 year old senior in college and need an internship to graduate. I would like to intern with a property management or real estate company. I would appreciate any suggestions on good ways to get an internship, or what real estate companies provide internships.. I also MUST have a paid internship because I pay for all my own living expenses and tuition. I need the internship for Fall 06 or Spring 07.

Micro Dermabrasion

My mother is planning on buying real estate with my grandmother and aunt. All three provides capital for down payment, grandmother provides the loan, and my aunt and grandmother live in it since the’ve only lived in apartments for the longest time.

This time they think they will just pick up a foreclosure…

The problem is that their plan is for the property to be split up when my grandmother dies. But there is ANOTHER aunt that could lay claim to the property after this AND the argument could deffinately be made that since my mother only provided an initial down payment and didn’t pay the mortgage she could easily lose out on the “1/3 share” of the property she thinks she will get. ALSO my parents don’t think these things out, they were originaly going to get land thinking in 5 years they will cash out not knowing much research goes into land speculation on top of the fact that they would have to be paying the mortgage, no renter, until they did sell it.
(Sorry its not that im stupid, the program just mixed up some of my paragraphs, the line about foreclosure goes here)… They think (because they told me) that you could get foreclosures for really cheap, like 150k off of market value. And I tried explaining that its simply not as easy as the late night infomercials make it sound but I’m their son so what do I know. They really think its going to be easy and nothing will go wrong but as with all things, especialy business between family members, this WILL go sour and I don’t want to see my parents burned. They won’t start an LLC, get a contract signed with all members, anything to cover themselves.

What on earth could I tell them to bring them to their senses? Websites or resources they can read so that they know that they really need to treat this as if they are dealing with non-relitive investors?

Marathon Fl Keys Rentals

I’m new at this…but it just seems so impossible to make any money in real estate. You have to pay for loan of the down payment, the property tax, insurance and mortgage……renting it out is not enough to cover the entire cost of all these components. The only way I can see making money is by it appreciating in value over time. Will the rent ever exceed these other costs…is it worth holding on to and putting your own money in? How do people buy 20 houses? I just want to know. Thanks for your input!

Right now the Real Estate Agents I know that are still in the business are still saying it’s a great time to buy and that if you don’t buy now then you will miss the boat. I think that what Real Estate Agents say is a great indicater of where the market is at. So once they start accepting that there was a huge bubble then sellers that are holding out now will start walking away from their mortgages or sell at losses. Then the prices can adjust and might even fall below where they are supposed to be.

Westlake Village Real Estate

As a Realtor it is hard to even trust that a deal will close now-a-days with the lenders going out of business and leaving buyers stuck out at closing. This has been a terrible experience for me.
Here in Houston mortgage brokers and loan officers are hurting and some are even given up. As a Realtor I have other options but rearranging my structure and client base will take me a minute to start building back up.
It would be interesting to know how others in the real estate industry are doing these days.
As the mortgage shakeout forces dozens of home lenders into bankruptcy, some are merely going into something like suspended animation — shutting down temporarily and hoping to escape intact once the crisis has run its course.

The total volume of subprime loans nationally fell less than 4 percent in 2006, even as defaults and foreclosures were starting to spike, according to data compiled by Credit Suisse. Some big lenders never really did apply the brakes: New Century’s loan volume was down a mere 1.3 percent through the end of February, or about two weeks before trading in the company’s stock was suspended.

I really would like to get into real estate investing. However, I do not have a mentor. I wish I knew someone who started with nothing and now is a productive real estate investor. I see info out there about becoming a real estate agent but nothing on how to become a real estate investor unless you read books which I have. I just think it would be so much more educationally informational for me if I worked with someone one on one. Can anyone assist me? I appreciate all answers. Thanks guys!

I know this is extremely early, but I can’t stop thinking about it. I own a one bedroom condo in the epicenter of where the olympics would be (if they took place in Chicago in 2016). My place is downtown Chicago and within 1 mile to the majority of the potential venues for the events (with a great view and parking). Thinking ahead to 2016, I will most likely not be living at the place, but will keep it for investment purposes. So if the time comes (hopefully, when the time comes), what should I do with the property to capitalize on that great location? Lease (for a ridiculous amount of money)…. sell just before the olympics …. lease during the events, and sell afterwords (expecting the local area real estate value has greatly appreciated). Like I said, this is very premature … but it is fun to think about. take care.

I am involved in a 3-way investment on a rental property and we are being forced to sell because of a DOT project. Our profit on this property will be approximately $75,000 and we need to figure out how to split this up. Being close family members, we weren’t too concerned about figuring this out we bought the property.

I would really appreciate any suggestions from real estate investors experienced with partnership investments like this.

Here are the figures for the capital and work/mangement invested by each party.

Investor #1:
Invested $150, 000 by taking out a regular home loan.
Lived at the property and payed “rent”.
Did 85% of the maintenance, improvements and rental property management.

Investor #2:
Invested $75,000 from a home equity line of credit.
Did 0% of the maintenance, improvements and rental property management.

Investor #3:
Invested $25,000 from a home equity line of credit.
Did 15% of the maintenance, improvements and rental property management.

Thank you!

We’re just beginning our home buying journey, just spoke a realtor, starting to look at homes at this week, etc.. Very early in the game still. At what point should we get a real estate attorney? And what should we expect from one? Do they walk you through the fine print, can I expect him/her to be available to answer any questions I may have? Or are their services limited to just the closing?
Please feel free to offer any additional information in regards to a real estate attorney and what their job includes.. Thank you.

I’m going to be buying a house in the next six months and am preparing to call real estate agents. I’ve never owned a house (or even lived in one, for that matter), so I have no idea how they get compensated. Do they make a comission on the sale, or do they get paid by the buyer? I don’t know if I’ll end up with a “buyer’s agent” or a “seller’s agent”, I’m assuming the buyer pays a “buyer’s agent”, however. Please let me know!

Two in one question. I am a real estate broker and I manage properties. In the process I have to do repairs on certain properties and have purchased hand tools for this purchase. I don’t want to have to capitalize and all that for a 3.99 screwdriver so how do I deduct these purchases.

Part two. If I throw a client party at my house, can I write off the entire amount or is it subject to the 50% entertainment stuff.

Thanks in advance for your answer.
I have several hand tools so the screwdriver is an example. I can’t imagine I have to fill out a sect 179 deduction for each one
