Helping people make good real estate decisions
 |
I’m happy to report that even if you don’t have a down payment, you can take advantage of today’s low interest rates and buy your home. The Michigan State Housing Development Authority (MSHDA) assists with down payments for buyers who qualify. The program will provide you up to $7,500 to cover your down payment, closing costs and even inspections!
Now don’t get me wrong. I’m into saving energy just like the next gal, but when the heating and cooling guy started telling me this high-priced model was the Porsche of furnaces, I knew it wasn’t for me. I’m a 2003 Honda CR-V woman, and I’m not looking to upgrade anytime soon!
So you’re thinking about buying a house—gosh, with the current mortgage rates, why not?—but you need to find a real estate agent. There’s a heck of a lot of us out there, so what do you do? Why not go speed dating? Seriously!
So…you’ve been interested in buying your first house for a while, but are unsure about your options. Not to mention you’re understandably concerned about the economy and whether or not your potential investment is a good idea right now. You’re also likely able to afford your monthly rent and a bit extra, but is that enough to buy a house? Are shortsales or foreclosures a good idea?
I do see a glimmer of hope! Those who know me know I’m a bit of “glass half full” person. But I am not just looking through my rose-colored glasses here. Without even looking at the trends and charts, I know things are improving in Ann Arbor.
