Can a Listing Agent and Home Owner Both Work with a Buyer Directly? Inspired by a Question Posted on Trulia A Trulia reader recently posted the following question: Can a listing agent and also the owner of the house work with a buyer directly? For clarity, there are a few questions, such as 1) are the listing agent and owner the same person? 2) Or are you referring to a Buyer talking to both the listing agent and also talking to the seller directly? 3) Or is this a For Sale By Owner and a Buyer Agent Most sellers hire a listing agent to be their representative and their "buffer" between them and the buyer. Also, is the Buyer also representated by a buyer agent? Or is the Buyer being represented by the listing agent also, making this a dual agency? Dual agency is only allowed when both p...

In Mountain View from Jan 1, 2012 until June 30, 2012 there were: 16 closed short sales 22 closed bank owned homes Total sales during this time period were 349 Total % Short Sales: 4.58% Total % REO Sales: 6 % Total Percentage  Mountain View Distressed Properties: 10.58% 10.58% of all Mountain View sales being distressed is not enough to have a major effect on the overall market. Additionally, as inventory is still so low unless these homes are truly physically distressed, which is more common with bank owned homes at this level, it probably will not have much effect at all. Ther are so many employed people looking for homes near Google, Apple, and other high tech companies, that homes are getting multiple offers, selling at appreciating prices, and are almost always in high demand.

A Federal Estate Tax Lien arises immediately upon the death of an individual.  This lien is a tax on the right to transfer property at death.  Unlike other liens, a Federal Estate Tax Lien can be "hidden" and it can impact real property without having to be recorded!           This tax may be owed if a decedent’s “Gross Estate” exceeds certain limits which are established in the tax code. These limits can vary depending on the date of death. The “Gross Estate” may include not only the decedent’s probate estate, but also insurance benefits, trust estates, limited partnership interests and so on. Q) I inherited property which was distributed to me by deed over a year ago. Now, in preparing to sell the property, a Federal Estate Tax Lien has just recorded against the Estate of my deceased...
