Cash offers can be tempting—but you should be careful. There are a few red flags you should be mindful of in real estate.
Cash offers can be tempting—but you should be careful. There are a few red flags you should be mindful of in real estate.
To put it one way: be careful who you open your door to.
You need to be wary of what kind of services you can truly trust when it comes to your real estate needs.
For example, the other day I got an email asking my team and I if we’d be interested in providing comps for some cash-for-your-house buyers and companies.
These kind of buyers and companies are struggling to come up with accurate comparables.
This raised some concerns for my team and I. We’ve also encountered clients trying to make use of this kind of arrangement, but what ends up happening is that they charge the seller fees.
While these cash offers might seem convenient, they actually earn you significantly less.
In fact, the average in Arizona is 15% to 30% lower than a given property’s actual market value. So while these cash offers might seem convenient, they actually earn you significantly less.
But, if you are wanting or needing this kind of cash offer I can arrange that for you. My team and I offer this same kind of service, but will net you more money.
If you have any other questions or would like more information feel free to give me a call or send me an email. I look forward to hearing from you soon.

There are some things you should absolutely know about real estate contingencies that are in contracts.
The first type of contingency is the inspection period. Most of us know that the buyer gets 10 days to inspect the property, and they can cancel the deal at any point along the way.
The inspection contingency allows a buyer to walk away.
The second is the financing contingency, which many sellers are not aware of. This means that in the event that the buyer is unable to obtain their financing, they can cancel the contract at any point up to the close of escrow and get their earnest money deposit back.
The third is the appraisal contingency, which is a big trend in our market right now. There is an appraisal contingency written into the contract, meaning the property must appraise for the agreed-upon purchase price, or other agreements may have to be made between the buyer and seller with the sales price.
The fourth one, which is also a big one in today's market, is an offer being contingent upon the sale of the buyer's home. If you get an offer that is contingent on the buyer selling their current home, you want to be sure that they are listing on the MLS with a professional agent to ensure that their home will, in fact, get sold.
If they're under contract, you want to know exactly where they're at in that process. Have they gone through the finance and appraisal processes in their existing transaction? In the event they are unable to close, what will be the plan moving forward from there? Any great agent in your local market should be able to help with this.
If you have any other questions about contracts, give me a call of send me an email. I'd be happy to help you!

Is Now the Time to Sell an Investment Property?

Looking forward, what you'll get now is probably the most you'll be able to get for a property until about 2022. If maximizing your investment and exiting these investment properties at some point is the most important thing to you, now is the time to do it.
On the flip side, if you're looking to buy, the good news is that we have a perfect storm going on right now. As we know, investment properties are all about positive cash flow, so with interest rates as low as they are, you're still able to purchase at today's prices and get positive cash flow. You're having someone else pay your mortgage for you, which is a great investment strategy.
As always, if you have any questions, feel free to reach out to me by phone or email. I hope to hear from you soon!
I wanted to talk today about real estate investment properties. Many of the questions I've been getting recently are about whether now is the time to sell your real estate portfolio.
My answer is that it is never time to sell - keep your properties forever! That is what your portfolio is meant for.
However, if you're trying to time the market and get the most out of your investment portfolio, now is a great time to do it. We know that real estate runs in about seven-year cycles, and the last peak was in 2007. Right now, we're living in the next peak window; therefore, you're going to be able to get the most money possible since 2007.

How will the election affect your ability to sell your home?
How will the election affect your ability to sell your home?
This election year has had no effect on the market at all. Low interest rates have continued to drive home sales. Essentially, this election has about as much impact on the real estate market as the Kanye West/Taylor Swift feud.
The real estate cycle is what drives home sales. Real estate cycles run about seven years. Our most recent peak was in 2007, after which we went through a valley. Now we are sitting atop another peak.

After the election, in 2017 or 2018, the market will most likely decline again. Now is the time to sell. Remember, real estate runs in seven-year cycles; our next peak won’t happen again until 2022 or 2023.

There are a lot of misconceptions about which types of home improvements are necessary to make on a home before you sell it. Contrary to popular belief, it’s not always a good idea to invest in a large kitchen or bathroom remodel right before you list your home for sale.
A good place to start when thinking about improvements is to schedule a home improvement walkthrough of your property. Often you will not need major improvements like replacing cabinets or flooring. A better alternative is to replace your fixtures, door handles, and knobs. A lot of small and inexpensive changes can add up to make a big impact on the overall look of your home.
