The Smart Home Buyer & Seller

Real Estate recently has been veiled in main stream culture as a Do-It-Yourself kind of project. Television shows and websites showcasing How To's of the Real Estate process include everything from Investment Flips to For Sale By Owners. It no surprise to experienced Real Estate agents that Home Buyers and Property Owners can be mis-led about the variable technicalities and specifics of each transaction. The Baskin Real Estate Specialists encourage home shoppers and home sellers to empower themselves with information from trusted real estate resources such as real estate programs and websites like The Future of Real Estate and www.darrylbaskin.com. When shopping for real estate think beyond the house and research the neighborhoods covenants and restrictions at www.tulsacountyneighborhhods.com. This kind of information is priceless to home buyers, home sellers and property investors. This preparation often leads to hundreds of saved dollars and to mention immeasurable saved time & aggravation.

Do you have a trophy property

The theme is the "Trophy Properties" at the Who's Who in Luxury Real Estate spring retreat. The best properties will sell because buyers do not want a project. Luxury brokers agree that, as the market changes, their value is in their ability to advise their clients in a way which produces results. Buyers don't have to settle for a project house in most real estate markets around the US. If you are trying to sell and not seeing success, make sure you evaluate the perception buyers have of your property.

Define "A Good Builder"

A Good Builder is one who doesn't have to build another house. What does this mean? Many home builders go out of business because they don't manage their money well. When a builder finishes a house, cash flow to pay the bills often comes from the next construction loan. This may seem harmless unless you are the last house they build when a banker says "No more money." If any sub-contractors don't get paid, they have the right to file liens against the property you just paid for! This really happens! Ask around.



Make sure you investigate your home builder and their financial standing. Certain loan types can help shield homebuyers from these dangers. Click here for more information on construction loans and Tulsa, OK area home builders.
