KW Selling Team News: Buyer Client Testimonial

"Brock it is impossible to put into words all that you have done for us to find a house.  We have been in Lansing over 18 years and have never met anyone like you!  Every agent we have ever met has been either a lying cheat or totally non-caring.  You have endless patience.  You treat people decently and always return phone calls.  We have to say, you are a superior person and an absolute wonder to work with.  Also, thank you for the gift.  Perhaps it will purchase a mailbox or post."

Understanding Real Estate: What is an Appraisal?

A real estate appraisal is a written professional opinion on the market value of real property.  That is, the home you are purchasing or selling.  The appraiser must be a third party, impartial to the transaction and licensed in the state of Michigan.

The value of the property is based upon a market analysis of recently sold properties (within the last 6 months) within close proximity (no more than 1 mile away) and in similar condition. The appraisal report states the appraiser's professional opinion of the property's value based on their knowledge and evaluation of the property.  The value is found 3 different ways.  

• The Cost Approach is an estimate of what it would cost to replace or reproduce the improvements as of the date of the appraisal given deductions like physical deterioration.  This number is added to the land value as stated in county records to determine the value of the property.  
• The Comparison Approach takes into consideration properties of similar size, quality and location that have recently sold.  Variations between the properties are factored into the value by adding or subtracting amounts to adjust for things like bathrooms, lot size, even the view from the living room window.  After all things have been calculated, value is stated.  
• The Income Approach is typically used for commercial properties and not relevant to residential purchases.  This approach estimates the value of the property based on the net income the property produces.

If you are using a bank to purchase a home, an appraisal will be required.  The cost is normally included in your closing costs.  The appraiser will also make sure the home is up to code for the loan type you are using.

Understanding Real Estate: What is Earnest Money?

Earnest money deposit (EMD) also called good faith deposit is a deposit towards the purchase of your home.  When you make an offer on a property, your Selling Team agent will ask for a check for your earnest money deposit.  The amount put down varies from transaction to transaction.  Typically, EMD is a minimum of $500.

 If you are making a cash offer on a bank property, the seller normally will require that the EMD be 10% of the sales price.  The higher the dollar amount of the EMD shows a more serious interest in the property.  In the State of Michigan, your agent must deposit your EMD check in an escrow account.  Many times, local Title Companies hold the EMD until it is time to close on the transaction.  Then, this money is applied towards your buyer closing costs.

KW Selling Team News: Seller Client Testimonial

Sold! Mrs. Dugan chose to work with The Selling Team's Brock Fletcher to sell her home. She had great things to say about Brock and we want to share them with you! 

 

"I talked to a few realtors in the Lansing area before choosing Brock Fletcher and his team to assist me in selling my home. Brock’s combination of experience and knowledge of the area combined with his ability to understand my needs and how to successfully price and market my home made him the obvious choice for me. The team was always quick to respond to my questions and concerns. I was unsure of how long it would take to complete my home sale, but Brock gave me a realistic timeline based on my goals and marketed and priced the property accordingly. In the end Brock found a buyer and I had accepted an offer in under 5 months! I enjoyed working with Brock and the team and would recommend them to friends and family without reservation."
