The Benefits of Buying a Resale Home

Posted by admin
at November 17, 2008


When shopping for a new place to call home, a major consideration that you must make is whether to buy a new or a used property. There are many benefits with both property types; however, it is important to analyze the different types of properties and determine which type meets your families goals. Their are several elements that you should consider when buying a property.

Is the Property Valued Correctly?

When looking for a house to buy, the major consideration for you is cost and value. Are you getting a good deal? Is the property within your budget? With a resale home these questions are easy because the area is established, the schools have been built, and all the amenities have been placed. When purchasing a new property, you are unsure of the price of the property because the neighborhood has not been developed. The neighborhood may turn out to be a dangerous neighborhood causing property value to plummet. The schools may not be suitable for your children to go to. It may be inconvenient for you to drive to work. There are countless variables that will remain unknown to you before you move in.
Another primary concern is moving in time. In a new property, it could be up to several years before the property is completed before you can move into the location. In a resale property, usually the move in date will be approximately 30 to 90 days after you place your offer. A lot of things could change in the area that could affect the marketability of your property, so make sure that you are aware of these potential changes.
Also, make sure that when you select a home builder, especially during tough economic times, that you choose a builder with a good balance sheet because if the company goes bust, then you may loose your deposit.

Perils of Resale

There are many benefits with a resale property; however, the major downfalls of a resale property are more associated with the construction value of the property. In a new property, you are getting all new materials with a very long life. On a resale property, the house may have aged and renovations may cost a lot to do and are constantly needed. Also, it is very expensive to change the dynamics of a resale property whereas a new property, there is more opportunity to customize the unit.
Many home builders also allow you to add certain add on features to the property in a new purchase; however, you will not be able to access that in a resale because it is usually sold ‘as is’.
Another important factor is lived in. In a new house, it won’t have a history since you will be the first family living in the property; however, in a resale home, it will have a history, and it could ve potentially extremely negative.

When choosing a new or used home, there are a lot of factors to consider above price. The resale home has location, exact valuation, and a history. The new purchase provides an all new home to the purchaser, and it also allows the home buyer to customize the property to fit your needs. Whatever your family decides, it is always best to analyze all options before deciding.

Are you Financially Ready to Own a Home?

Posted by admin
at November 11, 2008


You have decided that it is the time in your life to settle down and buy a house. It might be your first house or an additional property; however, before begin your search for that dream estate, the first thing you must do is figure out if you are ready financially.
This article will provide you with a few quick and easy tools that will help you to determine if you are financially prepared to purchase a property. These tools will also help you determine how much you can afford. They can also inform you if it is a good time to purchase a property, or if it is better for you to wait to find that dream home.
Once you understand all the details of your finances, then you will be ready to make an informed decision on the purchase of your property.

Introductory Calculations

Household Budget

There are many different calculations that you must consider, but the first consideration you must make is your own personal budget. When budgeting you must make sure that you have enough to cover all your expenses at the end of the month. You will also want to confirm that you have enough to cover your mortgage payment and be able to invest as well. When thinking about your housing costs, you must make that your housing payments (mortgage payments, property tax, heating, condo fees) do not account for more than 42% of your household income. The lower this amount is, the better, because if you run into a period of financial hardship, then you won’t have to worry about missing your mortgage payments.

Net Worth

Another primary calculation that you should be aware of is calculating your net worth. Banks generally will feel more comfortable lending to someone who has a positive net worth, and the bigger your net worth is the better. It is always something important that you should be aware of. You should check on your net worth from time to time to make sure that it is increasing.

How Much Can you Afford?

The next major consideration when trying to find out what you can buy is to figure out what you can afford. If you feel you are at this point, then it is a good idea to speak with either a mortgage broker or a mortgage professional to have them help you start the process; however, if you are not that interested in looking for a house yet and you would just like to know, then there are a lot of good calculators that can help you figure out how much you can afford. These numbers are not exact, and it is better to speak to a mortgage professional to help you see what you can get exactly, but they are good for a starting point.

Make sure that you are aware that different lenders offer different products. If the lender you speak with does not have the product you require, then make sure to speak with different lenders to find the product that you seek. The other option is to speak with a mortgage broker and have them find the product you require.

With house prices, just because you can get approved for a certain amount does not mean that you should take that amount. Instead, make sure that you analyze the payments and ask yourself ‘If interest rates changed, then would I still be able to make my payments?’

Should I Buy a House?

The final thing that you should ask yourself, ‘is it the right time for you to buy a house?’ If you plan on moving in a few years, then it is probably not the right time to buy a house because the moving costs are approximately 7-10% of the property value. Another thing that you will want to consider is if it is a good investment to purchase a property. Recently, market valuations on property have changed dramatically. Over the last several years, house prices increased by approximately 10% in a lot of areas across the continent; however, this has recently changed to a negative return on investment.
The most important question you have to think about is that, is the property a good investment for your family over your current living conditions.

Once you have determined that it is financially appropriate for you to purchase a property, then you should begin looking into a property. For good advice on the situation, you should contact a mortgage professional to help you understand your finances. They will provide you free advice and even offer suggestions on how you can prepare for home owndership if now is not the right time.

Renovate or Relocate?

Posted by admin
at November 10, 2008


Deciding on whether to relocate or to redesign your current location can be an extremely difficult decision. There are many factors that you must consider, both financial and emotional, before making the final decision of staying or leaving. Even if a decision is a financially sound decision, it may not make economical or emotional sense for you to leave your current location. The following is just a few factors that you should consider when deciding to renovate or relocate.

Renovating your Current Residence

By staying at your current location, you may be able to save a ton of money renovating your house. This is especially economically feasible if you are the do-it-yourself type. It may take long hours to complete a project, but the savings will be well worth it. Even if you decide to hire a contractor, then you still may be able to get the renovations at a reduced price. Make sure to shop the market before deciding.
The major downfall of renovating is that you cannot change a lot of things about your property. For example, you cannot change the lot size of the property, you cannot change the year that the property was built, and you definitely cannot change where the property is located. There are other things that are extremely expensive to renovate as well. These include plumbing, heating systems, electrical systems, the foundation, and other potential crucial systems. This causes a limited amount of renovations that you can conduct on your property; however, the money saving potential is definitely there.

Relocating to a New Property

Sometimes relocating to a new residence will allow you to get a fresh start. You may buy a new or a resale house; however, you will get to choose what improvements are important to you and make sure the house comes with these modifications. This is an easy way to have a house with all the necessary improvements that you were looking for, with very little of the actual hands on work. The costs will differ quite substantially though. When moving from one property to another, you could see upwards of a loss of anywhere between 6% and 10% of the property value in relocating costs. It can get extremely expensive if you look at the numbers, but you are getting all the necessary modifications in exchange for money. Other than a financial downside, their is also the emotional downside. When moving to a new location, the new property does not have your memories. For example, if you have some children or a wife, then the first times for specific things like your child’s first steps or other deep meaningful events, then they will disappear when you move to the new location. You must make sure of what you will lose by moving to the new location and what you will gain. The important thing to remember is that even though money can buy a bigger, newer house, sometimes money cannot buy the things that mean the most to you and your family. Consider what you will loose before considering what you will gain.

When deciding to renovate or relocate, make sure that you take into all the considerations before making your final decision. This is not just a decision based on financial or time based needs; however, it is more important to consider the mental and emotion demands that the house has on you because those will prove to be the most long lasting demands on your overall happiness with where you live. Always consult your family before making a huge decision like relocating and take the time to make an informed decision. Don’t impulse shop when buying a home for your family.

A Brilliant Economic Recovery

Posted by admin
at November 9, 2008


At this point in the trend of the market, government officials have tried just about everything to spur a sudden and dramatic recovery. They have tried giving out stimulus packages, tax manipulation, market manipulation, direct funding to major financial institutions, interest rate cuts, and a change of government. Their isn’t very many options left for the government to take; however, we should examine where we have come from and what would be needed for this market to succeed.

The Last Twenty Years

The last 20 years have shown some of the most rampant growth the Dow has ever seen. This growth was achieved through the use of many financial instruments and increased competition in the market. With capitalism taking a firm grip on the market, major corporations began competing stronger and stronger to improve their bottom lines. In a market where the best have exploding growth and the rest get left behind, it was a CEO’s duty to make sure that earnings per share becomes a number one concern of the corporation. If the company was not able to meet or exceed expectations, then the company may be looking at default in the near future as a possibility. This was especially true in the financial industry. Banks had to use all possible financial instruments to sell financial products. This in turn caused huge demands for real estate because everyone had the ability to purchase property. With this explosive growth, this caused exponential growth in the housing market, for over 10 years people had been investing as little as 0% down to take on an investment that could be in the hundreds of thousands of dollars. The first problem people did not recognize is that it is an investment, everyone had figured that housing prices would continue to go up and go up dramatically. This same mindset was held during the technology explosion at the start of the new millennium. The banks had set record numbers year after year and the only way to keep their share prices going up was to continuously exceed targets. This meant that they would have to lend more each year and drive demand up in the housing market, then in 2007 something happened that changed everything.

The Last 2 Years

The one thing that could stop the global society began to occur in the last 2 years. The economic landscape had got to the point where they had reached the lending capacity for mortgage based loans. Property values had increased by over 10% annually while all other goods were only increasing by approximately 2%. Houses became overinflated and could not hold there values with other goods being so cheap. House prices began to fall to levels that people could afford; however, during the drop many people began defaulting because they would have mortgages on properties that were tens of thousands of dollars more than the property was worth. People stopped buying property out of fear that they would loose money in the investments. Banks stopped lending because mortgage loans became a very risky investment and the economy began a quick deflationary period.
All goods began to sink in price, despite the governments best efforts to print as much money to save the economy. The short term future held deflation and the long term future showed huge inflation as the government took the necessary steps to keep the market in check; however, the market proved to be more powerful.

Inflation and Deflation

What options did we have other than lowering interest rates and printing money? What other choices do we have to economic recovery? The governments had followed a path that had worked during previous economic hardships; however, this was not the same type of recession as previous.
This point in history to achieve a brilliant economic recovery required one of two things to occur. The first successful option was allowing the supply and demand cycle to bring housing prices back to a level that would bring buyers back to the marketplace and continue the upward cycle. During this time, many companies that accelerated too strongly during the upside may have default or have a very difficult time; however, the economy as a whole would bounce back brilliantly after some hardship.
The second option is to bring up the pay rates and cost of goods sold of the lower inflated level to a level that could support the house prices at the high levels; however, this would cause a time of hyperinflation and would cost many jobs across the world; however, when the markets had adjusted, then the employment would return with an inflated value of money.

The path chosen by the governments prolong the pain in the market. Because of the actions chosen as band-aid solutions to major ailing condition, we may see a more painful then expected economic downturn. This is a time in our history when we must rely on the elected officials to lead us through a potential devastating economic crash. Let us hope for the best and that they make the right decisions.

The Economic Year Ahead and Protecting Yourself with Hedges

Posted by admin
at November 6, 2008


2008 has been an extremely tough year for everyone. It has been tough for investors, tough for property owners, and tough for business owners. I will be the first to tell you that, so far, it does not look any brighter in 2009. The only silver lining is that this is not occurring in North America only; however, it is occurring all over the world. This is not just affecting you and your personal finances; however, it is affecting everyone.

It is easy to sit back and let the economy run its course; however, that is most definitely will not be the best method. Your job may be lost, your investments may be diminished, your business might have to default; however, there are some things that you can do to protect your family from economic doom and gloom.

Your ‘Supposed’ Diversification

Right now, you probably have a lot riding on the economy growing and getting stronger. Your property value is based on the economy getting stronger, your job is based on the economy getting stronger, and your savings are based on the economy. If the economy collapses, then you will loose out everywhere. Even though you have diversified well, you have invested in many different sectors of the market and your investments can withstand volatility, you are still not protected.
Let’s say the market crashes, then what?
Let’s say the dollar crashes, then what?
Let’s say your house value crashes, then what?
Let’s say you get laid off your job and cannot find a new one, then what?

Hedging to Avoid Disaster

The first thing you have to admit is that your net worth and your future is fully dependent on the market going up.
Let’s say you are in the following situation:

Your total net worth is $440,000 with an annual income of $60,000. Let’s say that the market crashes by 30%, then this would cause your net worth to potential drop by $88,000. Let’s say the market dropped by 70%, like it did in Hong Kong, then your net worth would drop by $308,000. Let’s assume that you lose your job as well. This means that not only will you lose your income, but you will also lose all your money and only have a few years worth of income left.
Now, you can’t sell your house and you have to work, so how do you protect yourself if the market crashes?
The key is by hedging. This is a technique that is used by mutual fund managers to extend gains while protecting clients from loses. The technique would assume you keep your $340,000 in material goods, your house and other material items. You would take your investment and move it into a short investment with a large multiplier. The following is some examples of these types of investments:

Let’s say that you have $340,000 in assets, and you decide to invest $100,000 in one of these 3 times multiplier ETFs. The market then collapses and drops by 20%, your material goods drop in value from by $68,000 due to the drop in value of all resale goods due to supply and demand; however, your investment will increase by 60%, so you will make most of your loss up through your investment bringing your net loss to $8000. If you have exactly 3 times the investment in long positions, even in assets, then it is a good idea to take the short in an uncertain market.

This will protect you against recessional loses, and it will protect you against unforeseen hardships; however, this cannot strategy cannot protect you against currency devaluation or losing your job.

<h2>Investing Against Your Work</h2>

If you feel you have a solid role in your company, and the only way that you would be forced out is if the company had to downsize its workforce, then this method is for you.

What you will want to determine is the answers to the following questions:

For example, you have an annual income of $50,000 and you have $100,000 invested in the stock market. You feel that if the market goes up, then you will retain your job, and you won’t have anything to worry about. However, you feel that if the market goes down, then there is a high risk of you losing your job for 2 years.

You decide to invest your money so that if the market goes down, then your investment will pay your salary like it always had. Again you examine the different types of short investments available and decide to try an ETF.

You invest $100,000 which you would earn in approximately 3years. The market trends upwards by 10%, you lose $30,000 worth of your investment; however, you have kept your job. The market then begins to decline. The market drops 30%, and your boss has to let you go. Your $70,000 has turned into $133,000. You now have earned half a years income to help you while you look for a job. During this time, the market drops another 20%. Your investment has now jumped up to $218,000. You now have almost two years worth of income available to help you during this tough time. This is not mentioning other income like unemployment.

The market finally begins going back up and companies begin rehiring. Your company offers you your job back, and you accept. By shorting your job, you have just allowed yourself to have a vacation on the market.

These are amazing strategies that can work wonders for you and your family. Make sure that you are aware of al the opportunities that are available and do the appropriate research before investing. I am not affiliated any of these particular investments or investment stratgegies. Please make sure to speak with an investment advisor before using any of the discussed strategies to assist with your financial goals.

How do you think the global economy will perform in 2009?

Toronto Mortgage Market Update October 2008

Posted by admin
at November 5, 2008


Here in Toronto, some incredible news is coming out of the mortgage market that should be known by everyone in Canada. Mortgage rates and recent changes to get approved in Canada have caused some pretty dramatic changes in Canada, especially in Toronto. The changes in the housing market not only reflect that market; however, they assist in reflecting the market as a whole because if people cannot find jobs, make money, spend on regular things, then people definitely cannot afford housing, and some people cannot even afford the housing that they are in.

Resale Housing Market Statistics

The Greater Toronto Area reported only 5,155 sales during the month of October. This number shows a 35 percent decline from 2007 where 7,915 homes were sold and a 25 percent decrease from 2007 when 6,876 transactions had taken place. The population in Toronto had decreased during this time as well.
With the 68,750 home sales so far this year, the Greater Toronto Area is within 16 percent of the previous years target. The 2008 figures had been record numbers, so 2008 as a whole is continuing fairly well.
In the City of Toronto, the average house price has decreased to $376,896. This is down almost 13% from the previous years high of $434,022. The current home values are just under what the home values were in 2006. In the Greater Toronto Area, the average house selling price was $336,049, only a decline of 8% from 2007’s high of $364,142. The prices still remain higher than 2006 values.
“Earlier this year the International Monetary Fund undertook a study of housing markets in 17 countries and found that Canada was one of only two nations in which house prices are supported by the economy,” said Ms. O’Neill. “There’s no doubt that real estate will continue to be a solid long-term investment in our country.”
Currently, there are 27,277 homes available for sale on the Toronto MLS system. This is a 32 percent increase from a year ago when only 20,626 houses were listed. The average time frame a house is listed from increased to 37 days. Sellers are still receiving 97 percent of the asking price on resale homes.

The Market Outlook

As a comparison to the report that was released by CMHC, CMHC stated that Canada will show moderate growth throughout 2008 and 2009; however, the numbers are showing a big difference. Consumer confidence is dropping, and more and more people are looking to invest safely during hard times. They are moving there money away from volatile investments, and holding out in case of economic emergency. The course of the economy will be determined by supply and demand, and right now, there is plenty of supply and little to no demand.
Your mortgage specialist can inform you of just how much demand there is in the market. Ask your mortgage specialist how busy they are, and this will help you to determine when is a good time to buy.
Right now, we are entering the winter months where house prices general tend to depreciate.

With the market declining, you may be able to find some amazing deals on some amazing places. There are several key elements that you should look for when looking to purchase a property. Some of these elements include the following:

This pandemic not only is occuring in Toronto; however, it is occuring in many areas across the world. The financial system is a shadow of its former self and is causing much more problems than originally thought. Even though this is a horrible situation for many, it may be the time for you to find your dream piece of real estate.

Obama Takes the White House

Posted by admin
at November 4, 2008


Tuesday November 4th, 2008 will be a day for the history books. Today, the first African American has been elected the President of the United States of America. He came with a dream to bring change to the American people and change he had brought for a new beginning of America. Obama wanted to let his voice be heard for all people living in America to send a message to the world that the United States of America would be united once again.
Obama and McCain ran one of the most popular election races of all time, and in the end Senator John McCain set his differences aside from Obama to congratulate him on winning the race.
Obama did not just win the election, Obama won the election by a large margin. At last update, Obama led by 297 to 147 electoral votes. Obama also led the popular vote by a large amount as well.
Obama’s victory was highly likely when Obama had locked up the two battleground states of Ohio and Pennsylvania. This gave Obama the high likeliness of getting elected; however, as the evening progressed, the victory became more and more likely.
However, will Obama be able to rise to the challenge of reforming America and making the changes required to save America from a current economic disaster.

Obama’s Future

Let’s review the promises that Obama has made to make the changes to America to put America back on track:

Obama’s Legacy

Before Barack Obama even takes the role as commander and chief, he has already made many historic changes. He will be looked back upon as a historic figure and a person who will define America for the next hundred years. If he can successfully lead the country through these major economic times, then he could become an even more distinct figure in history. This moment in history is one of the most historic moments especially with minorities. This could be the next great president.

Mortgage Life Insurance

Posted by admin
at November 3, 2008


When getting a mortgage, one of your most important responsibilities of the mortgage is making sure that your payments are made on time, every time; however, some things can occur in your life that will make this responsibility difficult. This is just one form of insurance that you should consider when purchasing your home. This type of insurance is very controversial, so we will discuss both sides of the insurance. The mortgage life insurance may be one of the most important decisions that you make when completing your mortgage application.

The Dark Side of Mortgage Life Insurance

When you first decide on your mortgage payment, the payment alone is a lot of money, not to mention all the additional fees you are required to pay. The insurance seems like an extra cost that you just do not need when the money is tight. Insurance also seems to find a way to not payout when you really need it. Also, I will never actually experience the benefit of what I am paying for because I will be dead when I get the benefit of the insurance. The insurance you could receive, you could just increase other insurances you may have to cover for the insurance and actually get a benefit out of it.
What it really boils down to, is that it is something that you pay too much money for that you will never use.

The Truth of Mortgage Life Insurance

There are many benefits of getting mortgage life insurance. They are as follows:

Mortgage Insurance is quick and easy coverage that allows you to have full coverage on your mortgage without having to worry about all the standard limitations of Life insurance. The benefits of life insurance could be different by the different companies that you use, so make sure that you research all the details of your insurance with your mortgage company before proceeding.

How to Optimize Your Insurance

There are many situations to optimize your Mortgage Life Insurance; however, you have to be able to recognize the situations in order to take advantage of them. First of all, if you are young, then you should definetly make sure to get coverage.
