Want to sell your home but you owe more than what it's worth?Are you trying to sell your home by taking what you owe + Realtor Fees?I speak to homeowners daily that just want to get out but don't know of a solution. The hard reality is that most homeowners today have zero equity and have a loss on their property if they bought recently.  It takes 8 to 10% appreciation to "break even" on the sale of a home in our area.PUNCHING UP THE NUMBERS AND NOT SEEING THE MATH WORK NO MATTER HOW YOU TRY?   The answer just might be a SHORT SALE!What is a Short Sale?Homeowner sells for less than what is owed on the loan. Lender accepts the amount as payment. Seller escapes foreclosure, but receives no funds. Lender does not report foreclosure to credit bureau.In a short sale, a financially insolvent h...

5 COMMON FIRST-TIME HOME BUYER MISTAKES that Lyn Sims at RE/MAX Suburban doesn't want her buyers to make!  Guiding her buyers with over 20 years experience, she can help you find the best home in the Northwest Suburban Chicago IL Market. 1.  They don't ask enough questions of their lender and end up missing out on the best deal. Lyn's Comments - All lenders do not carry the same financing. Some do not handle FHA loans or loans with more flexible qualifying ratios that a first-time home buyer might need in order to get into that first home.  I can point you in the right direction so you get the best financing for you.  You MUST be prequalified for a loan BEFORE you begin your home search.2.  They don't act quickly enough to make a decision and someone else buys the house. Lyn's Comments-...

There is a large amount of inventory thruout the Chicago Northwest Suburban Market which includes the Streamwood IL area.  SMART PEOPLE ARE BUYING REAL ESTATE NOW!  Sellers are hot to compete and make their home standout above their competition.  Sellers are flexible!  Lots of Inventory = Buyer Benefits  SO WHY NOT GET IN THE GAME?  This is a great time to get your first home, move to a smaller home or get that larger home of your dreams!  To some buyers 100% financing is still available with a decent credit score and history! Here is a chart of ACTIVE homes in Streamwood with the MARKET TIMES posted as "Average Days on the Market". There are currently 234 homes in various styles and types available with the Average Market Time of 169 days.  The median price is $249,850 and the highest ...
