Prairie Village Foreclosure Listings

Well, guess what?  For the week ending on October 12, 2008, the Heartland Multiple Listing Service continues to only show two (2) active REO and/or bank owned properties.  WOW!  This is great for Prairie Village home sellers and those considering buying in Prairie Village.  WHY?  This is a subject that I plan on discussing in a couple of upcoming posts.  The importance of this is greater than many would think for a number of reasons.  All the more reason to think about buying in Prairie Village. 

If you would like information about either of these two listings, please contact us.  If you do nothing else, subscribe to this blog so that you can stay on top what foreclosures are on the market in Prairie Village AND why the lack of Prairie Village bank owned listings is a positive!

If You Think You Can't Get A Mortgage-Think Again!

Money SymbolBecause of the news about the tightening of credit, I think that there are a lot of folks who are interested in buying a home, but automatically assume that they will not be able to get a mortgage.  This is not necessarily true.

Specializing in helping buyers purchase their Prairie Village homes with many being first time buyers for Prairie Village I thought it important to again talk about the incredible mortgage and buying opportunities that are available to many Prairie Village buyers and most buyers. Because of the news about the tightening of credit, I think that there are a lot of folks who are interested in buying a home, but automatically assume that they will not be able to get a mortgage.  This is not necessarily true. 

I asked a lender who services Prairie Village mortgages to provide me with a quick synopsis of the mortgage market at this time that will show that many buyers, including first time buyers, can still obtain a mortgage at historically low rates with what are historically low prices.

Here is what Rachel Pointer with Community Home Lending has to say:

"In this historical financial market, I have found that many people assume they cannot get a mortgage loan. While that assumption is understandable, it is very far from the truth. While guidelines are more strict than they have been in the past, it is still very achievable to get a mortgage loan. If you are current on payments, have a small down payment or equity, you are very likely to qualify for a loan. 

If you are considering buying, you could not apply at a better time! Rates remain at a historic low and the market is prime for those looking to invest in real estate."~Rachel Pointer

We have many home buyers throughout the years find just the right financing program to help them buy their Prairie Village homes-many with Seller paid assistance towards their closing costs.  The agent you choose does matter is helping you to negotiate these fees-pick an experienced and knowledgable agent.

If you are curious about your qualifications, please contact us-we can put you in touch with Rachel who would be more than willing to sit down with you to discuss your options!  There are still plenty of them! Why wouldn't you want to find out that you CAN qualify for a loan so that you TOO can take advantage of this great buying opportunity.

Prairie Village Listed Foreclosures

As of today, MLS shows that there are two properties still actively listed as bank owned-REO's in Prairie Village. This is good for our Prairie Village neighborhood values. A significantly low number of active foreclosures, but perhaps a great buying opportunity in Prairie Village.

Let us know if you would like us to send you the information on these two listings OR if you would like to be notified of new REO-bank owned listings-WE CHECK SEVERAL TIMES A DAY-Contact Hinton Homes.
