A Florida Real Estate Agent Puts the Puzzle Together

March 15, 2014 By Realtor Millie Gil

A Florida Real Estate Agent Puts the Puzzle Together

Real estate agents in Stuart, Palm City and Port St Lucie are true veterans when it comes to every aspect of what needs to take place for a home to be sold. We know in advance what all the pieces of the puzzle are, and what needs to be done for them to fit together properly. We’ve also seen why some homes stay on the market for too long, while others get snatched up right away. And the best part is—we want our clients to know all those same things!

Every rule may be made to be broken, but here are three generalities that just about every Florida real estate agent will probably agree are worth knowing:

1. Where speed is important, price your house just under the market. As real estate values strengthen, sellers are growing more confident about the value of their offerings—even as prospective buyers continue to believe it’s a bargain-hunter’s market. That’s a terrific opportunity for sellers who realize that by simply setting their asking price just below what an optimistic, “let’s just see what happens” price, they can peg their offering to attract the serious buyers ASAP. It’s axiomatic: the longer a house is on the market, the less likely it is to close at its asking price. The best strategy, always: sell as quickly as possible.

2. A buyer needs to walk into your house and find that it looks great. It may seem like a trivial detail to you, but real estate agents in Stuart, Palm City and Port St Lucie know that even incidental atmospherics—little things that you’d think a buyer would know they can easily rectify—can instantaneously repel buyers. So make your home smell great! Establish a clean, fresh scent and be diligent in renewing it for every showing (after making sure any clutter is tucked away!)

3. Your Florida real estate agent will help speed the process of selling your home, but there are some parts of the timeline that can’t be rushed. Know in advance: the process takes time. It takes time to get your home in shape, make the necessary repairs, list it on the market, negotiate an offer, then proceed through all the paperwork, observing successive deadlines set to allow proper execution. Here’s another area where your real estate agent will be a great resource for dependably establishing exactly what to expect—and when to expect it.

If you will be seeking the right Stuart, Palm City or Port St Lucie real estate agent to make this Spring your own hot selling season, I’m standing by to make it happen. Call me!

Flipping a Home in Florida-Clearing the Finance Barrier

February 25, 2014 By Realtor Millie Gil

Flipping a Home in Florida-Clearing the Finance Barrier

In conjunction with the rise in house prices, the profit potential for flipping a home in Floridais once more drawing the entrepreneur-minded.

Flipping a home is the process of purchasing a property—often one in a rundown condition—then improving its value and reselling it for a quick profit. Quick is the key word in this strategy, since a fast turnover allows capital to be devoted to purchase and renovation rather than operating and maintenance costs. It’s why successful house flippers generally focus on quick gains over maximizing profits.

While this has proven to be a lucrative strategy in the past, financing has always been the first major hurdle for anyone flipping a home in Port St. Lucie, Palm City or Stuart Florida. If you’ve been noticing some of the inviting house-flipping prospects in Florida, several financing routes sometimes make such a deal possible:

Larger Down Payment

Flipping a house in Port St. Lucie, Palm City or Stuart Florida in the current lending market will often require a significant down payment. Since launching the project might require at least 25 – 40% for financing, it’s essential that you prepare sufficient cash reserves to complete the renovations envisioned—and successful house flippers suggest you add 20% to the cost estimate!

Seller Financing

Seller financing—a mortgage provided by the home owner—is also called a ‘purchase money’ mortgage. Sellers may be willing to provide financing if they have had trouble selling their property, which is often the case when a Port St. Lucie, Palm City or Stuart Florida home flipper believes its value can be greatly enhanced by repair or remodeling. Seller financing would be more common were it not necessary that the original owner own the home outright.

Hard Money Loan

Hard money loans—also known as short-term bridge loans—are another common source of financing for flipping a home in Port St. Lucie, Palm City or Stuart Florida. Hard money loans are backed by the value of the property rather than the credit record of the borrower, and typically feature a lower loan-to-value ratio than found in a bank mortgage. The added risk has a cost: expect to provide a large deposit and a premium for the loan (often 8% or more).

While sub-prime mortgages may no longer be as readily available as they once were, there are still multiple sources of financing for entrepreneurs who can spot profit possibilities for flipping a home in Port St. Lucie, Palm City or Stuart Florida. With real estate prices continuing to rise, this Spring again holds promise in the house-flipping arena. Call me if you are interested in learning about some of the latest prospects!

Florida Home Staging: Organization Works Wonders

January 13, 2014 By Realtor Millie Gil

Florida Home Staging: Organization Works Wonders

Staging your Floridahome for showings will always be a time-eater. The word itself is indicative: “staging” means transforming your busy household into a theatrical set. In addition to thoroughly cleaning every nook and cranny, it usually means spending on paint and a variety of minor supplies to tweak the production. Then comes the actual visits by potential Florida home buyers, sometimes interrupting your schedule (sometimes with very little notice).

If you have kids, keeping the staging in pristine condition must clear an extra hurdle. When the kids spill food on the floor (or leave toys underfoot for potential Florida home buyers to trip over), selling your Florida home can turn into a hand-wringing ordeal. It needn’t be. Here are a few sanity-preserving pointers:

Designate one room for the kids

While it may be impossible to totally prevent kids from being messy, we can keep the youthful chaos quarantined to one room. Designate the place in the house that will be the “kid’s area” so that the cleanup in advance of a showing becomes more manageable.

Keep the show towels separate from the real towels

A successful Florida staging routine pays special attention to focal points in the kitchen and bathrooms. Both should come as close as possible to a model home’s—which makes it crucial to keep a separate set of unused towels and floor mats to switch in whenever the home is going to be viewed. (There should be no secrets within a family, except maybe for this one: make sure the kids don’t know where you hide the show towels!)

Clear the “stage”

There are many items we keep handy that aren’t essential for day-to-day living. Whether it is unnecessary pieces of furniture or extra boxes full of toys for the children, these things combine to contribute to a sense of cluttered spaces. Stashing as much clutter as possible in a temporary storage unit will make your staging cleanup jobs much easier. It will also contribute to the clean uncluttered appearance home buyers find appealing.

Thinking of selling your home in Palm City, Stuart, Port Saint Lucie or Hutchinson Island? I have a marketing plan for this season’s market ready to go – call me today!

Having the right Florida real estate agent means having an agent who is committed to helping you with the highest level of expertise in your local market. This commitment level has helped Bold Real Estate Group build a remarkable track record of delivering results.

Florida New Homes Search: Cut to the Chase!

January 13, 2014 By Realtor Millie Gil

Florida New Home Search: Cut to the Chase!

If you plan to be looking for a new home in Port Saint Lucie, Palm City or Stuart anytime, before long you will find yourself having to pare down your list of ‘eligibles’—the properties that you ask your Florida real estate agent to include on your gotta-see-this-one list.

The better job you do in whittling down that list, the more efficient your tour of properties will be. That’s not just a time-saver, either: the fact is, you’ll be more sharp-eyed and energetic when visiting prospective homes if you don’t waste time and energy on those that you could have eliminated beforehand. Some earmarks:

1. Houses that have been on the market for a long time

Florida homes that have been on the market for more than 90 days probably have something about them that’s made them less appealing to buyers. If I am your Floridaagent, I will research to find out what the sticking point has been. It could be a factor that doesn’t bother you; if so, you might be in line for a true bargain!

2. Houses hiding deferred expenses

When you come up with a budget for your new Florida home, it’s easy to overlook deferred expenses that might bust that budget—especially if the property is otherwise appealing. Keep your eyes open and red flag areas that seem to indicate unusually deferred maintenance. And be ready to ask your Florida inspector for a professional opinion.

3. Homes with impaired resale potential

Although you won’t be selling your Florida new home any time soon, sophisticated buyers will usually try to put themselves in the mindset of a typical future buyer. That’s because they know that sometimes unique, idiosyncratic features that they themselves value can sometimes present obstacles to the average homebuyer. We never know what direction life can take; we may have to consider moving again sooner than expected—and if so, you’ll be happy that you tilted toward a new home with superior mass appeal.

If you’re about to go Florida house hunting, you can count my help as your experienced Port Saint Lucie, Palm City and Stuart Real Estate agent. I’m ready to get to work for you!
