Real Estate Open

To people familiar with mortgage approvals and/or real estate. Please open to see full question.?
I am 19 and a student with $7,000 saved up. I still live at home and have very little expenses. I bring home about $135 a week from a part time job. I save most of it.(I also get about $1500 each year from a scholarship) I have no debt of any kind. I am just starting to build up my credit, by getting 2 credit cards last year. I always pay them off and I can tell that my credit is building because I am getting more cc offers with lower interest rates and my credit line is increasing. Anyway, I live in an extremely cheap living area where I can get a starter house(ones that I want) from around $25,000-$45,000. I was just wondering if any bank or other place would lend me the 80-90% of the asking price that I would need to buy a house. If not, what are some other ways of financing the house(without exhorbitant interest rates). After all, I would only need like $25000-$40000, at most. Thanks
This is a great question!! First of all, I'm amazed at how people WITHOUT any experience in the mortgage lending industry are offering advice to people about one of the most important issues in their life!!! I am the General Manager of a large Mortgage Company. Please listen!!!!!!
1st of all....Congratulations on realizing that real estate is where the security of your financial being is centered!! There are MANY programs that allow you...even a college student...to purchase a home. I'm going to make a few assumptions. 1) Your credit score is higher than 620 and you have no serious collections over a period of the last 12 months. 2) You can provide proof that you've been employed for at least 2 years. 3) You're a citizen of the US. 4) Your credit card HIGH LIMIT on at least ONE of the cards is $1000 or higher. (If it's not, ask them to increase it to at least $1000)
Contact any reputable mortgage BROKER and explain your situation. Typically, it's a broker than also has the ability to do FHA loans, though you don't HAVE to get an FHA loan. They are monitored by the government to a greater degree and MUST be reputable! There are MANY programs that offer 100% financing to you...that means, you will only have to pay the closing costs for the loan AND if you ask your real estate agent to locate homes where the owner is willing to provide SELLER CONCESSIONS, the seller can even pay the closing costs FOR YOU!! MANY MANY sellers are willing to do this since it helps sell the home faster!
IF you can get a business license for ANY job or home based business through your city or county, no matter if you actually do any business through that company or not, and if you can show that you've had that business license for at least 2 years...sometimes a little less...you CAN QUALIFY FOR A "STATED" LOAN. This is a loan that simply lets your credit score do the talking for you. The lender assumes that you have a reasonable income (which you will "state" to them...whether it is true or not) and you don't have to provide proof of it!! In the industry it is called a Liar's Loan. A cute moniker that does not mean the loan won't be done. Lenders understand that it is simply a tool that homeowners use when they can't prove their income. The weigh the credit score and history against the risk of the overall loan amount. Assuming your credit score is greater than 620...and it probably is much higher than that, you'll be fine. The lender may need to see that you have 3 - 6 months worth of mortgage payments in the bank, so you're $7K will come in handy. This is the only income verifcation they will do.
Interest rates for this loan are a little higher, but not by much. However, you can expect the overall rate to be higher than normal simply due to the low loan amount. Any loan smaller than $100K incurs a higher interest rate. It wouldn't be unusual for you to pay as much as 8 - 10%. However, as scary as that sounds, keep in mind that the loan amount is VERY small (relatively) and the payments are stretched over 30 years, so the impact of a high rate on a small loan amount is negligible (comparatively).
As an example.
$40,000 @ 7% = $266 pmt (principle & interest)
$40,000 @ 8% = $293 pmt
$40,000 @ 9% = $322 pmt
$30 per 1% is negligible!!
If you don't have a business license or don't want to wait that long, consider getting a co-borrower, like another party....mom, dad, sister, friend, etc. With both of your incomes, you'll more than qualify for a standard, Fully Documented loan (Full Doc) where you have to prove your income with W-2's, etc. After the loan is completed and closed, the other party can sign a QUIT CLAIM DEED at a title company and remove themselves from the title of the property. They will still be a responsible party for the loan itself, but not have any rights to the property. After 1 - 2 years, you can refinance the property using the STATED loan already explained, leaving the previous party (MOM) off the loan completely.
Lenders WANT to lend money to good people. They make MANY different loan types, like STATED loans to make this happen. Don't be afraid to bend the rules a little. That's why they're there.

Real Estate Riches (Hardcover) $52.91 While real estate investors differ in terms of the asset classes they prefer to invest in-residential vs. commercial, for example-they are all unanimous in their desire to make more money and to do so as efficiently as possible. But often a key member of an investor`s team is taken for granted-the real estate agent. What skills can an agent bring to the table that would help the investor become a super investor-finding good properties faster and closing deals sooner? Real Estate Riches is designed to provide investors with key information about partnering with the right agent and understand how an agent can contribute in a very significant way to the achievement of an investor`s goals. Finding an agent with the right skill set, attitude and drive are top of mind for the investor, and this book shows the investor how to find and select the right agent to work with so the investor can make more money with less hassle. The notion of profiting in a big way from such a partnership also holds true for the real estate agent. The typical agent is missing out on huge opportunities to work with motivated investors who rely on their team of experts time and again as they build a portfolio of rental properties. A real estate agent, attuned to the needs of the investor, and attuned to the market in the way that an average residential agent would not be, can become a key expert for the investor and stands to make a lot of money by educating themselves and working hard. Real Estate Riches is designed to open the eyes of real estate agents to opportunities, to help them understand how and why the investor is a different animal than a typical home-buyer, and how to properly serve an investor client, which can bring rich rewards in terms of money and job satisfaction. |

How A Real Estate Open House Can Benefit You
As a real estate agent there are many responsibilities that you will have to tackle on a regular basic.
(there is a free ebook: 101 Tips For Selling Your House,for you to download,if you would like to sell your own house, from a link at the bottom of this page).
Knowing what these responsibilities are is very important if you want to be a success. One area that a lot of people usually forget about is the open houses that they must conduct.
Of course, as a real estate agent you will not have to do these open houses every day of the week, but they will be a regular part of your schedule.
The good thing is that open houses are not bad. In fact, if you make them work to your advantage they can be a lot of fun.
So what is an open house?
Generally speaking, this is when you open the doors to a home you are selling for a specified period of time so that anybody and everybody can take a look. As a real estate agent you will have plenty of things to do at the open house, so do not get caught thinking that you can just sit around and let people in the front door.
Your biggest responsibility will be to show anybody who is interested the entire home.
As the real estate agent you are supposed to know everything about the home, and if you do a good job showing it you may be able to make yourself a sale on the spot.
Of course this does not happen often, but the better you become at guiding people through an open house the more sales that you will make.
The seller of a home usually does not have a lot to do with the open house. They will evacuate the premises before people arrive, and also make sure that the home is clean. But as the real estate agent it is your job to take care of the rest.
In addition to showing the home you may also want to hand out detailed information sheets, or anything else that potential buyers may find interesting. Every little bit of work helps when it comes to trying to sell a home.
Overall, real estate agents must become familiar with what it takes to run a quality open house.
If you put the time into learning the ins and outs of this event you will undoubtedly make things much easier on yourself. And all in all, that is what you are trying to do, right?
