Looking for a seller offering Home Land Contract? Look on the web! A land contract is a legally binding contract between seller and buyer– a seller allows the buyer to repay a home loan in installments while the buyer lives in the home. It’s an interesting way to buy a home– it eliminates the middleman (the bank) and allows the buyer and seller to make transactions between each other. I know of a few people who have purchased such home (the homes were usually damaged or in need of renovation), but these folks got incredible deals on the homes. There’s a good resource at HUD, too– see the resource overview on buying a home.
It’s not easy to find land contracts; it’s not like they are advertised very much. But the Internet has some great resources available to you- TheLandContract.com is one of them. You can search by location (zip code, city, state) and by price. The listings are usually very comprehensive– most have photos and very detailed information, such as extras, amenities, square footage, and etc. It’s a greta resource if you’re looking for a land contract. Plus, if you are like me and just want to keep tabs on the housing market in your area, it’s good to browse the listings. And if you are considering to offer a land contract for your home, check out the articles at the website for more information on how to go about it.
Here’s some excellent news for you apartment hunters out there: check out the web for your new pad! I wish that this was available for me during all those apartment-hunting years when I was younger. It would have saved me a lot of inconvenience and time. Back then, we relied on classified ads or word of mouth to try to find a place. And if a landlord didn’t place an ad or didn’t get “mouths,” he had a difficult time finding tenants. Yes, it was SUCH a rough, cruel world back then, people! lol
Anyway, thanks to the web, you can find Luxury Apartments anywhere, all over the country, at the Luxury Apartment Shop. The website is excellent– I’ve been there a few times, checking out places for friends (plus, I like to keep tabs on the local real estate and apartment market in my state). Everything is at your fingertips and is very well organized. Search by city, state, or zip code, and get pages of results. Most listings have photos, detailed descriptions, a list of amenities, geographic location and address, contact information, and even floor plans (which I found fascinating). It’s excellent! And it’s totally free to search! There are listings for major cities and even small towns. I think it’s a very convenient way to find and compare listings in the country; they even have comprehensive Las Vegas Luxury Apartments listings, and a fancy New Lux Score®. Landlords, this is a great way to get your luxury rental unit listed, too. See the website for listings and more details.
This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Coldwell Banker. All opinions are 100% mine.
Wow! I wish they’d had these tax credits available when I purchased my home. It’s a great time to be a home buyer– with the housing market in a slump, property prices are very low, and people and banks are eager to sell.
Coldwell Banker, that outstanding real estate company, has some information on the 2010 Homebuyer Tax Credits available to first-time and new home buyers. In a nutshell, here are the details:
If you are a first-time home buyer, or have not owned in the last three years, are eligible for an tax credit of up to $8,000.
If you own a home and have lived in the home as your principle residence for five out of the eight years you have owned your home, you can receive up to $6,500 in tax credit when purchasing a home.
There income limits and deadlines, so if you qualify, do not delay.
This video is good and has more information about the tax credits.
This is a great incentive to get the home market moving again. I love the Coldwell Banker website, too– I routine search for properties to keep tabs on property values in the country. You can search the website for home and property listings, too.
Be sure to definitely check this out to see if you qualify!
It’s so easy nowadays to find a home, thanks to the Net. Wow! I loved poring over homes for sale… dream dream! LeasePurchaseSearch.com has made it all very easy, too. It’s a website dedicated to helping prospective homeowners find the perfect home under a lease purchase contract (rent to buy). Thanks to the unstable housing market, property values have plummeted, which makes it a perfect time to get a home. Not everyone has all the money upfront for such a large purchase, and not everyone can get a big bank loan, either. A lease purchase option is a terrific way to work toward owning your own home.
The website makes searching very easy: you can search by city, state, zip code, home price, bedrooms, and bathrooms. The search results are clear cut– many have photos– and they offer details on the property, with contact information. Nice! No longer do you have to call dozens of realtors or scour the newspapers for availability of, for example, Lease Purchase Philadelphia opportunities. It’s a great way to search for a beautiful home.
Boy! I wish they had this website when I was younger and looking for studio apartments. Then again, I wish they’d had the INTERNET when I was younger!
Well, the Internet has changed everything, hasn’t it? You can find just about anything, including your next “pad”! There’s a nifty website where you can search specifically for studio apartments anywhere in the United States. Let’s say you live in Anchorage, and want to research Nashville Studio Apartments– just punch in the location (city and state name, or zip code) and any other data you want to include (price range, bathrooms, etc), and MyStudioApartments will search for apartments and generate the results very quickly. Search results include a photo if there is one, information about the apartment, a small paragraph about the location, leasing options where applicable, and information on the lendor or realtor involved. It’s very organized and everything is right at your fingertips. It’s great!
MyStudioApartments.com also has some articles for the studio renter, such as decorating tips, information on localities, and more. It’s nice and simple to use. If you or someone you know is needing to find a studio apartment, definitely take a peek. The website is free to use, and you can register for free, for added benefits.
