Our house not listed, why not?

Answer
Your Realtor could also fix the data on the hundred other sites that get aggregate data also, good luck on that.  At least your home is on the number one site in the Cincinnati area for home searches. It is not possible to track down all the sites where listing data is shown so the local brokers that have a legal reponsibility to maintain correct data is the best place to be.

If the court cancels a Notice of Default and a Notice of Trustee Sale on a property, who owns it?

Answer
From the information you have you can not tell who the owner is.The property owner could have done a loan modification. The property ownercould have done a deed in llieu of forclosure. The property owner could have done a short sale. The properety owner could have brought their balance current. A third party could have bought the note from the lender and now they have the right to deal with the property owner. There are more senarios but you get the idea.

Pay cash or get a mortgage?

Answer
Granted a paid for home is a great feeling but you do not want to be cash poor. With the availablity of home loans under 3% you may want to consider a small home loan and keep some of your cash in reserve. Remember when your savings account earned over 3%? I has a checking account that at one time paid over 8% ofcourse home loans ere double digit interest rates then.

EAST LIVERPOOL,OHIO FUTURE MORTGAGE NEEDED!

Answer
If you know of lots of people that have been discharged from their BK for only one year and are getting home loans from a lender find out from them who they are going to. I am not aware of a lender that will give a home loan to someone one year out of BK.

Is there a form (contract) for selling by owner to use?

Answer
In Ohio there are no sales forms online with any state agency. You need to contact a real estate attorney to have your purchase and sale contract drawn up.

How can i find out if a house is aviable if the agent will not and has contacted me?

Answer
the property could show on Zillow for 6 months after it is sold. Contact a local Realtor® to act as your buyers agent if you are serious about a home. Trolling the aggreagator sites will show you many properties that are no longer available but have not been updated.

New const.120 day contract. Builder says closing 30 days past. What can I do?

Answer
You need to check your contract but builders normally cover themselves very well. A Realtor® representing you may have saved you money but that is in the past. I have builders I work with in the area that I can get things done things that someone walking in off the street can not get done. Builders veiw a unrepresented buyer as one transaction. I have two local builders that I work with a lot and have done about 20 homes with one and a dozen with the other. They want that return bussiness so are more willing to give "upgrades" at no cost.
