Recent Reports have come out from economic analysts and major news networks that the real estate market in Florida is seeing a larger than normal presence in foreign real estate investment.

Palm Beach, FL -- (SBWIRE) -- 06/27/2012 -- Recent Reports have come out from economic analysts and major news networks that the real estate market in Florida is seeing a larger than normal presence in foreign real estate investment. Florida real estate is becoming a top choice for foreign investors – mostly from Europe. There have been many speculations into why this surge has occurred: faltering value of the Euro, drop in Florida real estate prices, and unusually cold European winters, but local Florida real estate experts have their own opinions on the matter.

Joel Harelik of the Harelik Team recently commented on the infusion of real estate investment from foreign buyers by stating that Florida is the perfect place for them to invest their money and own a winter haven home. The faltering value of the Euro has scared many Europeans forcing them to divert their investment capital to other countries – namely the United States. European investment has come in from Spain, Italy, Greece, England, France and more. That has only added to the traditionally popular foreign investment from Brazil, Argentina, Mexico and Russia that already exists in the Florida real estate market.

SeattlePi.com describes the appeal for foreign investors by comparing it to stock investment,

“The average mutual fund is said to return between 3 to 5 percent without figuring in the cost of inflation each year. Inflation and taxation are some of the factors that can reduce an investment portfolio. Investors that are using self-directed IRAs to purchase real estate or investment property could earn between 8 and 15 percent annually or more”.

The Harelik Team is a group of Palm Beach real estate professionals specializing in Active Adult Communities in communities like Boynton Beach, Delray Beach and Wellington. The team consists of Candace and Joel Harelik who have decades of real estate experience between the two of them.

Updated HARP 2.0 government program provides refinancing options to California homeowners who are living under negative equity by allowing them to refinance at lower interest rates.

San Diego, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 07/02/2012 -- In October 2011, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac along with the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) announced modifications to the Home Affordable Refinance Program to make it easier for lenders to refinance mortgages that are HARP Eligible.

The Home Affordable Refinance Program is a financial aid program announced by the US federal government in 2009 to help millions of homeowners who are either near-underwater or underwater (means you have zero - or even negative - equity in your home) to refinance into a fixed loan with lower monthly payments.

With the changes announced to the HARP eligibility guidelines (now called HARP 2.0), more and more homeowners are now eligible to refinance at lower interest rates.

The elimination of the 125% loan-to-value for fixed rate Freddie Mac or Fannie Mae mortgages and the exclusion of appraisals for new properties where there is already a reliable Automated Valuation Model or AVM are two such major changes that help make more people eligible.

The goal of the newly modified HARP 2.0 Program is to help stabilize the real estate market and encourage more people to buy homes on loans.

You May Be Eligible For A HARP Refinance If:

?1) Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac owned or guaranteed your home loan. ?

2) Your loan was sold to Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac before May 31, 2009.?

3) The mortgage must not have already been refinanced through HARP in the past, unless it happens to be a Fannie Mae loan that underwent a HARP refinance between March and May 2009.?

4) You owe more than your home is worth, or is there minimal equity in your home.?

5) You must be current on your mortgage for the last six months

6) You have no more than one late payment over the past 12 months.

7) Your loan is not a USDA, FHA or Jumbo Mortgage.

Call (858) 304-1210 or visit our HARP Refinance Center and fill out our 60 Second Eligibility Form to see if you qualify for this new program.

San Diego, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 07/05/2012 -- In light of a turbulent real estate market with many unanswered questions, Short Sale San Diego is pleased to release a step by step guide on The Complete Short Sale Process from Start to Finish.

What happens in the Short Sale Process from the listing of your property to the Short Sale Approval to closing escrow.

The short sale process is still a bit confusing to the public and some real estate professionals even after it has become the most popular alternative to Foreclosure. Homeowner’s are not the only ones that are puzzled by the ever changing short sale process. In many cases it is the buyers agent or even the short sale listing agent that does not know how a short sale works.

The basics of what a short sale is:

There are 2 main reasons that a bank would allow a homeowner to short sale; the homeowner has a hardship, and the homeowner owes more on the mortgage than what the home is worth.

Just a few examples of what a valid hardship is:
Unemployment or reduced income
Divorce
Medical emergency
Job transfer out of town
Bankruptcy
Death

During the short sale process a seller will need to prepare a financial package to submit to the short sale bank. Although each bank/lender has their own specific guidelines, the procedure with most are very similar. With several of the major lenders such as Wells Fargo, Bank of America and Chase, the short sale package can be submitted online through a system called Equator.

The most common items included in the short sale package are:

Letter of authorization; This allows the short sale Realtor or short sale negotiator speak to the bank about your short sale.
HUD-1 or preliminary net sheet
Financial statement
Short Sale Hardship letter
2 years of tax returns
2 years of W-2s
Recent paycheck stubs
Last 2 months of bank statements
Market analysis of your property

Don’t worry if you don’t know what half of these items are. If you are connected with a good short sale agent or short sale Realtor they will guide you through the whole process and make sure that your short sale package is complete.

Accepting the best Short Sale Offer and Submitting to the Bank

If you are on the buying a short sale you should make sure that you are working with a competent agent that will be able to negotiate the short sale offer and make sure that you are getting a good deal. Although the banks are not in the business of giving away homes at ridiculously low prices, there are some great deals to be found when buying a short sale.

Once an offer is made on a short sale home and the seller decides to accept the offer, everything is then submitted to the short sale bank.

Here are some of the items that are sent over with the short sale offer:
Listing Agreement
Short Sale Purchase Agreement
Buyers loan approval and deposit
Seller&aposs short sale package

It is important to note that if the package is incomplete in any way the short sale process can be delayed.

The Short Sale Process once the file is submitted to the bank

Once a short sale offer is submitted to the bank it may be a lengthy process until the shortsale is approved. It is very important to have an agent that specializes in shortsales since constant communication with the short sale bank is imperative. In many instances buyers will get tired of waiting for the short sale approval and will back out of the deal. It is for this reason that a short sale buyer is made well aware of the time it takes to get a short sale approved.

Here is the typical timeline for the short sale process once it is at the bank:

Bank acknowledges receipt of the file – 10 to 30 days
A short sale negotiator is assigned - 10 to 60 days
An appraisal or BPO is ordered and completed
The file is reviewed by the negotiator
The bank issues a short sale approval letter or make a counter offer
Close escrow

In general it is impossible to say how long a short sale will take. Some short sales get approval in 6 to 8 weeks and others take 90 to 120 days. Short sale lenders are not always the easiest to deal with so it is important to hire a professional real estate consultant to help you shortsale.

At Short Sale San Diego we like to summarize the entire process as such.

PS: Here is the basic timeline and process for the short sale:

1. Sign the listing agreement so we can advertise your property on the San Diego MLS and on http://www.shortsalesandiego.com.

2. Obtain an offer on your property.

3. Accept an offer on your short sale.

4. Submit the Purchase Offer along with the Short Sale Package to our Short Sale Negotiator

5. Our Short Sale Negotiator submits the file to your lender(s)

6. We will get a short sale approval or counter offer on our purchase offer.

7. We open escrow and complete all the final disclosures and escrow paperwork.

8. If needed the buyer will finalize their loan.

9. We close escrow and the short sale is completed.

That is basically the whole process in a nutshell.
