Ventura County homebuyers have less than 60 days left to select a Realtor, pre-qualify for a loan, choose a home, and open escrow in order to qualify for the federal government’s homebuyer’s tax credit.

The tax credit for Ventura County homebuyers is:

• $8,000 Tax Credit for 1st Time Home Buyers.
• $6,500 Tax Credit for Current Homeowners.

The catch? You have to be in contract (in escrow or open escrow) on a home before April 30, 2010 in order to qualify for any of the tax credits mentioned above.

Time is running out for those of you who have procrastinated. The competition to open escrow before April 30, is fierce and at times an emotional roller coaster.

If you need any help locating a home in Ventura County or would like to learn more about the homebuyers’ tax credit please feel free to contact me, Mana Tulberg: 805-443-8898.

It is an absolute misfortune and heartache when Ventura County homeowners are faced with very few options to save their home from foreclosure.  One of the most common options to avoid foreclosure on your home is to short sale your property.  However, some homeowners who are in distress hesitate to short sale their home due to the dreaded cost associated with a sale of a home. What most homeowners are unaware of is that short selling their home will most likely cost them NOTHING.

In a majority of cases, once the lender approves the short sale, the lender will also agree to pay for the cost associated with the sale of your home.  As a part of your short sale approval your lender will agree to pay for your Realtor fees, escrow fees, and title fees.

Nevertheless it is very important to realize that in real estate and especially in short sale situations all transactions are unique and the final outcome depends on the situation of the home seller.

For those home sellers who have a second mortgage, unpaid homeowners associations, or mortgage insurance, their lender may ask for the home seller or even the home buyer to contribute towards paying off these debts.

No matter what the outcome of short selling your home may be, it is important for you to know that you will not be collecting any proceeds from the sale of your home through a short sale.

If you have any further questions about short selling your Ventura County home or if you need assistance with short selling your Ventura County home please feel free to contact me, Mana Tulberg: 805-443-8898.

As a home seller in Ventura County it is critical to be informed about and to be conscious of your closing costs. Understanding your closing cost helps determine many factors in the final sale price of your Ventura County home.  Closing costs directly impact the biggest factor of all:  the absolute lowest price you are willing to sell your home in order to obtain your goal.  Both parties in a home sale transaction (home seller and home buyer) incur some costs.  These costs are all negotiable and are governed by the local laws and local real estate regulations.

Closing costs for home sellers are the expenses associated with the sale of their home.  At the end of escrow the closing cost amount is subtracted from the final sale price of your home.  As a home seller you may even arrange in the purchase contract to pay for the buyer’s closing costs.  No matter what you decide to do, it is important to know all closing costs and keep in mind that the delegation of your closing expenses are negotiable.

Below is a list of some of the typical expenses associated with the sale of your home in Ventura County:

• Paying off the remaining balance of your loan and any fees or penalties associated with your loan payoff.  During escrow the escrow officer will contact your lender to get the exact amount of your loan.

• Title insurance to insure a clear title on your property.  The amount of your title insurance depends on the sale price of your home.

• Brokers’ commission. It is typical for home seller to pay for both brokers, your broker and the home buyers’ broker.

• Transfer taxes which are governed by local laws.

• Escrow fees. Some home buyers may negotiate for you to pay for a portion or all of their escrow fees.

• Prorated property taxes, depends on when you sell your home in the tax year.

• Pest control inspection and the cost of any work that may need to be done.

• City or county transfer fees.  Some cities in Ventura County do not require a transfer fee.

• Home warranty plan. Some home sellers purchase a one year home warranty or home protection plan for the home buyer.

• Homeowner association transfer fees and documentation fees (if applicable).

• Notary fees, messenger fees, and other miscellaneous fees.

It is important to realize that many of the fees mentioned above are negotiable and can all be outlined in the purchase agreement between the home seller and the home buyer.
