If this is your first time buying a house there are many tips you can take advantage of to acquire a home at a bargain. The best place to start as a first time home buyer is to learn the Home Buying Process. Knowing this valuable information will allow you to take advantage of the great mortgage plans the government has put in place to help you as a first time home buyer.
Whether you are a first time home buyer or a seasoned real estate investor, it is important to know what home loan options you have for buying a home. New purchase mortgage loans include conventional loans, FHA loans, VA Loan, USDA Rural Housing mortgage loans and others. We may all agree, that the best way to buy a home is with cash however even real estate investors that purchase hundreds of homes may see advantages in reviewing mortgage home loans options.
Michigan is one of the top states to get a bargain price when you buy a foreclosed home. You may be able to negotiate deals with the banks that currently own these homes and MUST sell them. Typically foreclosure homes in Michigan sell for 10-15% under the current market value. This means that you will receive a large discount to purchase a bank owned home.
The purchase price may be a great deal however you must remember that foreclosed homes may have significant costs to repair once you purchase. Typically when homes are foreclosed it is because the homeowner does not have the funds necessary to pay for their mortgage payments let alone home maintenance costs. There may be significant deferred maintenance and repairs that have not been completed while the home is being foreclosed.
We always recommend purchasing a home inspection so you know the condition of the foreclosure prior to owning it. You do not want surprises such as a bad roof or major plumbing issues right away when you buy your home. These are very costly mistakes to make which could put you in a foreclosure situation if you did not budget appropriately.
Whether you are upgrading to the home of your dreams or a new home buyer considering a foreclosed property, now is a great time to buy a new home. For free advice and a loan preapproval call Riverbank Finance today at 800-555-2098.
