Brooklyn Real Estate is still booming

We have weathered the storm, and now now hopefully things are getting better.  If you own Brooklyn real estate  you know the purchase of the property is not the end all or be all.

Purchasing the home is just the beginning of the journey.  As Mike Baglivo a home inspector, and part of our team loves to say, “you wouldn’t buy a car without knowing how to use it, so why would you buy a house without knowing everything there is to know about it.

Reverse Mortgages New York Allow You To Purchase a Home.

Did you know you can purchase a home with a reverse mortgage.  Imagine selling that home that is too big for you and downsizing.  Well folks who are 62 and over can use a reverse mortgage to make there purchase.  If you are interested in purchasing a condo the condo association needs to have been pre FHA approved.

Give me a call and I will let you know where you can find condos that have FHA approval.  You still will need to qualify the mortgage.

The Brooklyn NY Community, is rumbling with gentrification.  Hardly a neighborhood is untouched.  In 2008 we saw a major banking crash, and Brooklyn manage to hold it’s own through all of that.  Currently there is not much inventory available, which in turn is causing prices to rise.

When buying or selling a home there is a lot to know and keep track of .First figure out you budget.  Get pre-approved for a mortgage.  Most Realtors will not want to take time showing homes to customers who have not been qualified.

  • You need to know how much you can afford to spend before you jump in.
  • Now you need to narrow down the neighborhoods that fit your price range
  • List the community amenities you are looking for
  • Find out what the taxes are
  • Be careful, a property may have a tax abatement and if it has run it’s coarse can you afford the real estate taxes
  • Get quotes for insurance
  • Is the property in a flood zone and can you get flood insurance
  • Are there any association dues
  • Have a home inspector check the place out
  • You may want to test for lead paint if the home was built prior to 1978
  • If the home inspector see problems, maybe you want to get some estimates to cure
  • Hire a Real Estate Attorney.  They can save you a bundle just by guiding you.

 

You probably have heard the saying location, location, location.  It is all about location and Brooklyn NY is the place to be.
