Buyers and sellers beware!!
If you are a buyer or a seller involved in a one million dollars home in South Park, Ballantyne or a one hundred thousand home any where in North Carolina, please be aware of any material facts directly or indirectly related to the real estate property. Your agents must at all times exercise a reasonable degree of skills and diligence when it comes to any issue affecting the real estate property.
When two agents were showing property in a certain subdivision to a buyer client, they realized that there was a cement plant very close to the property. At the time, the buyer took the time to ask some neighbors about the plant and was told that they loved their house and that the noise did not bother them. Agents need to have in mind that buyers often buy a home moved by emotions. Therefore; it is our responsibility as realtors to do the work for our clients.
The buyer end up falling in love with the house and submitted an offer. Of course, the offer was accepted. The realtors were present for the inspection and were surprised to hear from the inspector that there was a lawsuit going on between the HOA and the developer for over two years. The inspector was concerned too and made sure that the issue was noted on his inspection report.
The listing agent was well aware of the lawsuit but never bother in disclosing it as required by the state. The property disclosure form never mentioned anything about the issue. An article by Jenny Overman in the Times News stated that several residents are concerned about the property value of the homes located near the concrete plant. A resident who's house have been on the market for over six months said that over 30 Realtors representing buyers has shown the home with no success. According to the owner, some of the buyers refused to enter the home after being aware of the plant.
As realtors, we can not jeopardize our client's most valuable investment. It is our responsibility to disclose information affecting the transaction or we can be liable for any damages that result.
It is not over yet. Go to www.yourcharlotteagents.com and read my next blog for the closing of this transaction.

Is the Charlotte home pricing shocking you?
If you are visiting us from any other part of the country, specially Florida, New Jersey, New York, or California, and you are planning to purchase a home here, think twice!! Think it over again.
The purchase of a home is a big decision perhaps the most expensive investment most people will make over the course of their lifetime. Therefore, if you are about to make such a high dollar investment, you must keep on reading this article. I have read several articles in the past few months stating that Charlotte, North Carolina is one of the best house markets in the country if not the best. And it is true. We are by far the best market when it comes to real estate. So if you are visiting and planning to purchase a home, you definitely came to the right place. Now, when it comes to home size and price, you need to think twice as I have stated before.
Buyers are impressed by our prices and the amount of house that their money can buy here in Charlotte. So, for residents of other states, our prices are a bargain; therefore, these buyers tend to buy oversized homes when they don't even need such a large property. I have met several people who made the mistake of buying huge pricy homes and end up regretting their decision later. My advice is to buy or rent a home just large enough for your family to live comfortably and take your time to familiarize with the different areas and subdivisions. Once you get a general idea of where you would like to set your tent, call a good real estate agent and start looking for your dream home. Think twice before making such an important investment on your own. A good Realtor will help you make the right decision, get you the best deal, and save you money in the long run by helping you buy the right house that already has some built equity.
