Las Vegas, NV - September 1, 2011 - (RealEstateRama) -- Many Nevada homeowners have tried loan modification; however, loan modifications just don’t work. Remember that until you have equity in your house, all you are doing is renting. That’s correct! You are renting from the bank! There is no reason to pay off $300,000 in debt when the home you bought is now worth $150,000 or less. Most experts predict that it will take 10-20 years or more for the Las Vegas housing market to rebound. It makes rational sense to walk away and get a fresh start. Surrendering a home worth half of what you owe is not a failure, it’s a business decision. Why would anyone want to modify a loan and wait twenty years (or more) to have equity? For the few who actually qualify for loan modification, they become “renters for life.” Too many people refuse to recog nize a mistake, and then they compound the mistake over and over by spending their entire life savings, 401(k)’s, retirement savings, and even borrow money from family to avoid accepting the reality of the situation.

Las Vegas, NV - August 25, 2011 - (RealEstateRama) -- While short sales minimize damage to your credit versus foreclosure, the fact remains that the goal of every short sale is to walk away without the bank coming after you at some future date down the road. So why are some homeowners asked to pay substantial promissory notes in exchange for a short sale approval, while other homeowners are not asked to pay a promissory note at all? The answer can almost always be found by looking at the experience (or lack of experience) of the Real Estate Agent. There are certain factors which minimize hardship in the eyes of banks and bank Investors, and are essentially short sale deal killers. A Realtor experienced with short sales will be able to explain the banks perception of hardship and how it applies to your particular situation.

LAS VEGAS, NV - August 22, 2011 - (RealEstateRama) -- In today’s economy, every penny counts. The Myers Team with the Caliber Realty Group recognizes that there are many homeowners in Las Vegas who still have equity and do NOT need to do a short sale. While real estate commissions are negotiable, the fact remains that most real estate companies still charge a 6% commission to sell your home, even though Las Vegas home values have depreciated by 50% or more. Additionally, many Brokers feel it is acceptable to charge a “transaction fee” on top of the commission (a.k.a. document fees, storage fees, compliance fees, etc.) and these fees can range anywhere from $400.00 – $700.00. Why pay top dollar to sell your home when you can get BETTER SERVICE, BETTER MARKETING and BETTER RESULTS for less?
