Utah County Homes for Sale, Title Insurance and the Closing The last process that takes place just prior to recording is the closing. At closing the Title or Escrow company provides the buyer with Title Insurance or an Owner’s Policy. They insure that you have clear title to the property. If there are any problems later you can always go back to the Title Company and have them clear it up. During the closing the Title Company also provides a Lender’s Policy. The Lender’s policy insures your mortgage lender that there are no liens or judgments against the property and that the property and the mortgage company will be in the first position. In other words, should you sell the property or refinance it, their mortgage gets paid first, before any other claims against the property. The Lend...

Utah County Homes for Sale, Home Loan Appraisal The Real Estate Appraisal is an important part of your home buying transaction.  The appraisal helps to establish what the property's market value actual is, in fact it would likely be the main tool in helping the seller establish the proper selling price. Lenders require an appraisal when the home is offered as security for a loan; they want to make sure that the property will sell for at least the amount of money it is lending.  Real estate agents often use a comparative market analysis (CMA), with an appraisal to help their home seller determine a realistic asking price for their home.  Many times, experienced real estate agents will come very close to an appraisal, but usually the appraisal is very detailed and is the only valuation le...

Utah County Homes for Sale - Real Estate Negotiating When it comes to time to negotiate a real estate transaction, some interesting dynamics take place. Obviously the Seller wants the most money they can get for their home. The Buyer wants the most home for the least amount of money. This is a crucial time to have a professional on your side, who knows and understands how the process works. There is not a right or a wrong way to proceed, but it does involve a lot of give and take. The party with the stronger alternative usually gets more, but a successful negotiation happens when both sides end up with a compromise and no one feels deceived or taken advantage of. There are a few points that need to be considered when you approach the negotiating table.  Determine what you want to achiev...

Bank Owned Properties - Utah County Homes for Sale Banks are not in the business to hold onto an inventory of homes.  They want to get rid of these homes yesterday.  This makes for a great opportunity for you, the home buyer or investor, because most of these homes are well below market value.  Once the bank owns the property they will handle eviction if any, take care of some repairs, pay past HOA and/or other maintenance dues, and then will negotiate with the IRS, removal of tax liens, if any. How do banks sell REO's (Real Estate owned by the Bank)? Most banks have an REO department that handles the sale of these properties.  They certainly would like to get the best price of course.  When you make an offer, the banks will usually make a counter offer.  Don't be surprised to get a hig...

Utah County Real Estate - Monthly Payment Stability One of the major advantages of owning your own home is the stability of having a stable monthly mortgage payment.  In today's ever changing housing market, with the rise in foreclosures, renting a home has been the only option for many families.  The supply demand for rental properties has increased the monthly payments for many renters.  As a general rule rent will increase quite often even during a stable housing market. With a fixed rate mortgage, the home owner has the luxury of establishing a stable monthly payment.  This along with the tax benefits discussed in a previous blog makes for a much more desirable housing payment scenario.

Utah County Homes for Sale - Mortgage Rates and Annual Percentage Rate (APR) Many borrowers don't understand that there is a difference between the Mortgage Rate and the Annual Percentage Rate (APR).  The mortgage rate is the base rate usually associated with a mortgage.  The APR of a loan is supposed to be an overall interest rate with all the applicable closing costs factored in.  Unfortunately, not all lenders include the same costs so not all APR's are created equally.  Use the APR as a general guide to the overall cost of the loan but keep in mind that you have to look at the details of what's included to be sure.

Utah County Homes for Sale - Annual Percentage Rate (APR) As a Loan Officer here in Utah County, I have found that many consumers don't fully understand the term Annual Percentage Rate.  Probably no other disclosure is as baffling to the average consumer as APR is.  Few understand how the APR can be higher than the interest rate.  The APR is the finance charge expressed as a numerical percentage, which is an expression of the annualized finance charge.  The APR includes the interest rate plus all of those items that are included in the finance charge. Although few mortgage lenders actually do it, lenders are required to disclose the APR when inquiries are made orally.  The APR also has to be fully disclosed on any advertising materials.  Search Utah MLS Listings - Utah's Finest MLS Home...

Utah County Real Estate - Car Payments and Your Home Purchase When determining your ability to qualify for a home loan, a lender looks at what is called your "debt-to-income ratio.  The debt-to-income ratio is the percentage of your gross monthly income (before taxes) that you spend on debt.  This will include your monthly housing costs, including principal, interest, taxes, insurance, and homeowner's association fees.  It will also include your monthly consumer debt, including credit cards, student loans, installment debt, etc. Buying a new car during the Home Loan Process can drastically affect the outcome of your Mortgage.  Let's suppose you earn $5,000 a month and your car payment is $400.  Depending on the interest rate you are able to get, you would qualify for between $50,000 and...

Utah County Real Estate - Private Mortgage Insurance (PMI) - Early Exit Private Mortgage Insurance (PMI) is the safety net of the lender.  PMI benefits lenders because it guarantees payment on the balance of loans not covered by the sale of foreclosed properties. If a borrower makes a down payment of 20% of the cost of the home, the lender can generally trust that he will make his mortgage payments faithfully to protect a large investment. In this case, the lender comes out ahead if the borrower is forced to foreclose on his house, because the lender loans 80% of the cost of the house, but will probably recover 100% of the cost of the house. But, if the borrower makes a smaller down-payment, such as 3%, 5% or 10%, and borrows the rest, and then defaults on his loan, the lender loses mon...
