Don't let those fly-by-night real estate agents sucker you into making a bad real estate decision. They all operate the same way, they stuff an article with keywords and post it in your city, hoping some poor soul who needs assistance in buying or selling a home will call them.  Rialto home owners and furture home owners deserve better. When searching for real estate agent or broker to represent you with a purchase or sale in Rialto, be diligent and find out if the agent you're speaking with actually has an office in Rialto, or if they're just some out of town quack from, say Redlands, posing as a Rialto real estate agent. If at all possible, you should select an agent who has a California Broker License as these individuals have a higher real estate education, have been tested more th...

Just What Kind Of Home Buyer Are You Anyway?  Pre-Qualified, Pre-Approved or Approved!   Did you know that one of the more frustrating aspects of buying Rialto real estate is qualifying for a mortgage to buy your new home?  Is your Realtor is using terms to describe your loan status that's confusing . . . especially when you're a first-time buyer. Wondering what the difference is between being pre-qualified, pre-approved and approved for buying your next home in Rialto? Pre-Qualified - This just means that a lender may approve you for a loan if they are able to verify everything you have submitted to them. Pre-qualification is based solely on information you give to a lender regarding your income and debts. There is no guarantee that you will get a loan. Pre-Approved - Once your lender ...

Home Affordable Modification Program (HAMP) guidelines state that borrowers behind on payments or in danger of becoming behind on payments are eligible for the HAMP program.  This means that borrowers who's ARMs are about to adjust that won't be able to make their payments can apply for the HAMP Program. Loan modifications can change an adjustable rate mortgage to a fixed rate mortgage and can even reduce the principle on your mortgage if the loan is underwater.  Did You Know that the entire HAMP program is based on a borrower's household income vs. their 1st TD house payment.

Avoid These Home Improvement Mistakes Be sure to avoid the most frequent mistakes when considering home improvements.  Adding value to your home can be more than an investment in your property.  There's a big difference between improving for your own personal enjoyment and making home improvements to maximize your return on investment.  Time, consideration and planning can put you in a favorable position when it's time to put your house on the market. Be sure your improvements are neutral and easily transformable to appeal to a wide buyer pool.  When your improvements are too personal, they tend to deter potential buyers that are trying to envision themselves living in your house.  Even though hot pink is your favorite color doesn't mean a buyer will find value in your newly painted hot...
