The second report shows the 12 short sale active listings. Short sales are transactions where the proceeds of the sale will not cover the outstanding mortgages. These are pre-foreclosures. Home buyers need to be very selective when submitting offers on short sales. If the price appears too good to be true, the listing may be unrealistic.

Mortgage Financing: It is an ideal time to obtain funds to purchase a residence or investment property. Interest rates are low and are expected to rise during the coming months. Pre-approval for financing is the first step in the home purchase process. Buyers need to have a lender letter in hand when they submit an offer on a property. Buyers should be prepared to fully document their income and obligations. Ask us for a referral if you do not have an existing relationship with a mortgage lender.
FHA loan limits for Montgomery County and Frederick County: $729,750. FHA financing has a minimum cash requirement of 3.5% of the purchase price. FHA Streamlined 203(k) financing allows borrowers to include up to $35,000 of home improvements in the mortgage amount. The limit for FHA reverse mortgages: $625,000. Age 62+ seniors use reverse mortgages when they need to eliminate mortgage payments.
