How can a single person afford a home?

Thu, 11 Jun 2009 23:33:00 GMT

Hello All,

I am single and would like to purchase a townhome. I make a decent income, have great credit, a good down payment and no real debt besides regular living expenses (rent, utilities, food, etc). I live in Miami FL and that is where I am looking to buy. I have been preapproved for 175k and know with taxes, insurance, and hoa's that is all I can afford. How does anybody do this? The taxes, insurance and hoa more than doubles the complete mortgage payment. I though the housing market had crashed but I guess not where I want to buy. It's not about the down payment at all. It's all the fees tacked on to the mortgage. I don't want a stand alone house because the upkeep on that is even higher than a townhouse. A condo doesn't offer enough ownership for me. I guess I will continue renting. Thankls for reading.

HARP Loans with Current Lender?

Wed, 25 Nov 2009 06:38:00 GMT

Does a loan have to be refinanced with the current lender under the HARP program?

If not, are there any advantages to doing it with your current lender? I currently have IndyMac (OneWest) and they say they don't have it available yet (125 LTV). This is after trying to get a hold of them for a month.

Tired of getting notices that Agent is claiming my listing

Wed, 04 Nov 2009 02:24:00 GMT

I have received three notices that another agent is claiming one of my listed properties and that I have to provide all the info. This is getting tiring. Why doesn't the new agent provide a copy of the listing agreement since they are the one trying to invade my listing. Or at least provide me the info for the agent, since I will see it anyway later on?

When to Quit

Fri, 02 Oct 2009 13:41:00 GMT

I have been trying to purchase a home since Jan 09 and still looking. I have to ask why are listing realtors fooling their customers into thinking they can get the over exagerated prices for their home at this time. I have offered what they are asking and EVERYTIME the appraisal comes in below it 100K or more. And then they don't want to budge on reducing the offer. I would love to hear from realtors who are in this situation and WHY!
