Top Realtor Team , California explains the process in 5 easy steps.

Buying or Selling your home? Work with the best Real Estate Agents that this city has to offer because when it comes to buying a home the process can seem overwhelming. But when you work with Ricardo the Realtor Top Team we can keep the process manageable. There are 5 steps that you need to follow. As long as we take each step in order you can avoid running into trouble and becoming frustrated.

Believe us, driving around all over on the weekends, calling on signs is not the way to buy your home. This is why, the Listing real estate agent has the duty to get the highest price for the seller of the home. After all, the current owner is their client and when we represent you we only work for you. Our duty is to get you the very best price.

So first, lets determine how much you qualify for. Lets face it, unless you are an all cash buyer.. financing is the lynch pin of property ownership. I will have our banker call you and walk you through the pre-approval process. Once you are pre-approved, you will need to select an area where you want to live if you do not already know. I will set you up with a client gateway that will show you all the homes listed in your price range that we can go see.

Next, lets get specific with your wants. With the community that you picked out do you envision your new home to be a condo or single family home? Close to work or schools? Big backyard? Extra parking for entertaining? This is really going to help us pin point our search.

Now, onto property tours. We will show you 10 homes in your price range in the area that you want to live in. I want you to focus on certain elements of each property such as:
I like the street but the backyard was to small.
It had a great kitchen but it did not have a pool.

Lastly, let us identify the one. On a an average we will inspect 10 homes over a couple of weekends and we will find the right place based on your criteria. We will prepare a CMA – Comparative Market Analysis to determine if the home is priced correctly. Based on our data we will help you determine a realistic offering price.

As your Top Real Estate Team we will guide you from contract to closing by working with escrow, title companies, appraisers, inspectors, contractors, mortgage company, termite company to secure you a smooth transaction.

If you need to sell your current home we can also help you. Many Realtors still use marketing that only worked years ago and is now obsolete. They are really out of touch with todays technology. The days of sticking a sign in the ground and posting a newspaper ad is not beneficial for todays sellers. We use technology that most agents do not even know exists. We push your marketing dollars to get you the best price.

Please call us so that we can meet and you can see first hand why having us work for you is your best choice. For all of your Real Estate needs and more… Call Ricardo The Realtor.

Buying Rental Property: A Step by Step Guide!

For all of your Real Estate needs and more, Call Ricardo the Realtor.com
562-533-4003

It may be common knowledge that buying rental property can be one of the most secure and fastest ways to build serious wealth – but the “how to” knowledge is not so common. The steps to buying rental property, however, are not that drastically different from buying your own home, with a few important differences. This article is going to explain step by step how to buy a rental property and begin your entrance into real estate investing.

Step One: Do Your Homework Before Buying Rental Property

Please – please don’t skip this step. As soon as you’ve made your decision that you want to buy rental property, it can be easy to start shopping for homes and picking out the paint colors. However, your first step begins long before ever stepping foot into a house.

Doing your homework ahead of time means researching:

What kind of investment property you want to buy
How much you can afford to pay
What kind of neighborhood you want to invest in
What the average rent is in your area
What kind of return on investment you hope to make.
Doing your homework can be difficult for one major reason: You don’t always know what questions to ask. Because of this, BiggerPockets recently created the free “Ultimate Beginner’s Guide to Real Estate Investing” which will help any new investor learn how to get started. This guide will help teach you the necessary questions to ask.

Step Two: Make a Plan and Develop Criteria

Once you’ve done your initial homework, you can begin making a plan and setting your criteria. I highly recommend you write down your plan and goals, and refer back to them often. If you are looking to buy a single family home for between $150,000 and $200,000 – it’s easy to get distracted by the home with the beautiful garden for $250,000. By stating your plan and your criteria, you can hold yourself accountable to your goals.

Step Three: Arrange Financing

One of the most common mistakes made by homebuyers is to start searching before arranging financing. However, this error has caused untold heartache when buyers find they can’t afford the dream home they’ve found. This same principle applies to buying rental properties. Before shopping for your new rental property, be sure to talk with a bank about how much you can afford to buy. There are numerous different paths to real estate financing so be sure to weigh all your financing options before making your choices.

Step Four: Begin Shopping For a Rental Property

Now comes the exciting part! There are a lot of great ways that you can get find rental property. Begin by looking online at your local MLS to see what’s available. Go to:

www.RicardoTheRealtor.com

Each of these sites search generally the same MLS listings, which all real estate agents have access to. However, these sites do not contain all the information needed (and sometimes do not even contain all the listings, either.) For this reason, it’s important to get in touch with a local real estate agent that you can trust to get you more information. An agent is generally only paid, by the seller, when you purchase the home – so for a home buyer, using an agent is typically free.

It’s often helpful to find an agent who specializes in working with investors, as they are more keenly aware of what makes a good rental property. Also – be sure to share your criteria (See step two above) for your rental property, and allow your agent to help you find the best properties that meet your qualifications.

Step Five: Make Your Offer

When you find a rental property you want to pursue, and have walked through it, your next step is to make your offer. To do this, your real estate agent will fill out the paperwork based on your requests and submit your offer to the selling agent. The selling agent will bring your offer to the seller, and negotiations will begin. For a great article on negotiations, check out How to Negotiate: 7 Real Estate Negotiation Tips.

Be sure to only spend the amount that makes the most sense to you. Determine how much cashflow you need to make and don’t let emotion override the numbers. Be willing to walk away and you’ll always hold the upper hand in the negotiations. If you can’t agree to a number that works for you – it’s not worth buying. Remember:

It’s better to have no deal than a bad deal. (Tweet This Quote!)

Also remember, price is not the only consideration. Depending on the popularity of the property and the strength of the deal, there are many other issues to include in your offer, including:

Closing date
Inspection contingency
Financing contingency
Seller financial concessions
and more
These items are all important to discuss and decide if you will include in your offer. Be sure to talk with your real estate agent about all the necessary parts of the offer. Once you have a signed agreement with the seller and have agreed upon all terms, you now have what is known as “Mutual Acceptance.”

Step Six: Due Diligence

You’ve finally agreed on a price and you have a closing date set. Now, it’s time to begin your “due diligence.” During this period (according to the dates specified in your offer) you will hire an inspector to perform an condition inspection on the property, looking for any defects that may cost you money in the future. If something is found, you can always go back and re-negotiate with the bank (as long as it is within your “inspection contingency” timeline, as specified in your offer.)

If you are buying in a “hot market” it may not be wise to nickel-and-dime the seller, or they may refuse to perform the steps and walk from the deal, giving it to someone else. On the other hand, it’s important that you don’t get stuck with a property that has major problems – so be sure to weigh the decisions carefully and keep your goals in mind at all times.

During this time between “mutual acceptance” and closing – you will also finalize the financial arrangements with your bank or other lender. This is also the time when the Title Company or Attorney, depending on your local customs, will take over facilitating the transaction. When the day of closing comes, you will sign documents and will be given keys to your new rental property.

Step Seven: Start Landlording

Finally, the deal has closed and you are now a landlord! If the property is vacant, you will need to learn how to rent your house (be sure check out How to Rent Your House: The Definitive Step by Step Guide” here on BiggerPockets. You will also need to brush up on your landlording skills, so be sure to check out “How to Be a Landlord: Top Ten Tips for Success” and ask questions, for free, anytime on the BiggerPockets forums.

5 Reasons to Check Your Credit Report

So you are ready to buy a new home? Searching for a new place to fit your new Lifestyle can be very exciting.  Ricardo The Realtor and his team want you to be as prepared as possible before embarking on your new adventure.  We suggest that you take the time to check your credit report and here are our reasons why.

1. Human Error: Was that a 1 or a 7?

Something as simple as human error can have a dire effect on your Credit Report. Inaccuracies may include payments not credited, late payments, or information accidentally added based on mistaken identity. Many of these types of errors are not difficult to dispute but in order to do so, you must know that they have occurred. Ricardo The Realtor advises you to order your credit report regularly (1 to 2 times a year) in order to help you identify and then eradicate these issues.

2. Tracking Payments: The check is in the mail…I think.

Although it is important to make payments, it is as important to do this in a timely fashion. Unforeseen issues may arise, causing your check to arrive late and possibly pushing your account into delinquency.  Tracking payments regularly can help you identity and address the problem. Quite often simply contacting a creditor and informing them of the error will give them sufficient information to allow additional time for the delay and therefore add no penalties for its tardiness.

3. Identity Theft and Credit Fraud: Are you really you?

Identity Theft is a crime that has become more and more common. An unscrupulous person may intercept a pre-approved credit card or hack into information saved in an online payment system. Using the information provided this person can assume your persona.  Overtime this person action may affect your credit in an unpleasant fashion. Credit Fraud occurs when a person uses your information to make unauthorized charges to your account. Both Identity Theft and Credit Fraud can be prevented. Ordering your credit report is easy and will immediately notify you of any suspicious activity.  Recognizing signs early may be the difference of whether your credit becomes completely jeopardized or not.

4. Inquiries

When you ask for a loan, request a bigger credit line, and even when you apply for employment, the companies will often check your credit report. Each of these inquiries are looked at as a negative to creditors. It is therefore very important to keep track of how many inquiries have been made on your report and whether they were authorized.

5. Free Credit Reports and your New Home

Checking your credit report is simple and the best way to make sure that you keep your credit looking healthy. It gives you the chance to prevent fraud, correct problems created by human error, and keep inquiries down to a minimum. When requesting a loan for your new home, your report will be checked and you want to make sure that it represents you the best way possible, with a great score!  Being proactive and keeping track of your report can make this part of the home buying process a breeze. Best of all you can check you report once every year for free!

When it comes to managing your credit worthiness, your credit report is your best resource.  Ordering your credit report gives you the opportunity to manage your credit wisely today, while planning your credit strategy for achieving future goals – a credit-savvy move every consumer should make!

When you list with our team it is our goal to have your property sold. So get ready for a professional sales push that will produce the best results. If you have any reservations then talk to us and lets make sure that you are making the right decision together.  Ricardo the Realtor and his team are available to assist you in all of your home selling needs.
