London leads eight year high in European corporate real estate sales

Some €14.6 billion in European corporate real estate assets were sold in Europe in 2014, the highest number for eight years, with London leading the growth, new research shows. Over 350 deals were recorded thanks to a continued low interest rate environment and exceptional levels of equity pouring into real estate, according to a new report from JLL.

Since 2012 the number of companies raising capital from real estate assets in Europe has been on the increase, coinciding with a period of rising real estate values, the report points out.
Indeed, in a separate recent survey from JLL some 40% of respondents reported increasing demands from senior leadership to raise capital through the real estate portfolio.
JLL expects this market momentum to continue as businesses take advantage of opportunities to create a property portfolio that better meets their needs whether it’s reusing capital to support business growth, obtaining greater flexibility to aid downsizing or removing unwanted surplus property.

‘Companies are now faced with a once in a cycle opportunity to exploit the best market conditions since 2007. Last year global real estate investment volumes stood at US$710 billion, a level only ever exceeded in the peak of 2007,’ said Michael Evans, head of Corporate Capital Markets at JLL.
‘This momentum has continued into 2015, with an abundance of equity targeting real estate. This presents opportunities for companies with owned real estate to raise capital via sale and leasebacks. Activity has been widespread across Europe involving a range of companies with appetite across a variety of sectors and asset types,’ he added.

The report has identified that traditional office and industrial occupiers across pharmaceuticals, energy, manufacturing, IT and telecoms dominated European corporate sales last year, accounting for 38% of activity.
Meanwhile hotel operators made up 27% of the sales market followed by retail at 16%. The most notable sales were seen in the media and telecoms sector which included the largest corporate property sale of 2014, sold for €680 million in Paris.

In terms of locations, the UK, Germany and France continued to govern the volume of corporate real estate sales, representing 60% of European activity in 2014. This was driven predominantly by the UK, with an 18% year on year increase and almost double the volume achieved in 2008. Spain and the Nordics also featured strongly with 18% of total corporate sales last year.

According to Karen Williamson, associate director for EMEA research, with such a compelling market now is the time for companies to rethink their own versus lease decisions.
‘There are a range of solutions available to companies considering raising capital from their owned real estate. Sales can benefit the wider business by allowing capital to be recycled back into the organisation to support growth and expansion,’ she explained.
‘It can also be used to enable financial flexibility and unlock value from assets as part of a planned exit. With the real estate market so buoyant, now is the time for occupiers of property to raise capital or sell off unwanted problems at attractive pricing,’ she added

Property sales in Spain reach three year high

Residential property sales in Spain increased in May to their highest level for three years, according to the latest official figures. But there is an ongoing collapse in new home sales, the data from the National Institute of Statistics (INE) shows.
Overall there were 26,455 homes sale in May, up 5% on last year and 11% on the year before that. But a breakdown of the figures shows that the increase came from the resale market, up 34% over 12 months, whilst new home sales fell 42% to just over 6,000.
According to Mark Stucklin, of Spanish Property Insight the overall picture is one of a recovery in demand for property in all areas where foreigners tend to buy, but with the market hamstring being a lack of attractive new homes for sale.
However this could be about to change. Demand is growing for new homes in Marbella, for example and developers are building again.
Land is in high demand and for the first time in almost a decade residential, commercial and tourism projects are under construction and market sentiment is increasingly positive, according to Pia Arrieta, partner at DM Properties Knight Frank Marbella.
‘Genuine interest in good value, good quality, well located plots of land is on the increase. Land prices in Spain climbed 5.2% during the last quarter of 2014 and sales increased significantly compared with the same period in 2013,’ said Arrieta.
Arrieta explained that the strong pound is encouraging UK buyers who are considering a broader range of investments, but northern Europeans, particularly those from Scandinavia, the Benelux nations, Germany and Russia are also ranking highly among those choosing to build their dream homes on the Costa del Sol.
‘The demand for land stems from a growing appetite amongst end users’ for turnkey, contemporary products with the latest gadgets and luxuries. Competitive construction costs and the decline in land prices in recent years has spurred developers on,’ she pointed out.
‘Marbella’s accessibility along with continuing investment in the town such as its new boardwalk and the increasing number of top rated restaurants are also encouraging new development,’ she added.
According to Knight Frank’s head of sales in Spain Christian de Meillac this upturn in demand has also been replicated in registration figures. ‘In the first half of 2015 Knight Frank has seen a 65% increase in new applicants registering their interest in Marbella compared with the same period last year,’ he said.
‘Buyers are seeing value again. Prices have come down, the exchange rate is favourable and buyers are seeing long term growth potential,’ he added.

Extensions and alterations add £6.5 billion to the value of UK homes

Home owners in the UK have added an estimated £6.5 billion to the value of the country’s housing stock in the 12 months to March 2015, according to new research. Some 220,000 owner occupiers in the UK extended or altered their home in past year, equivalent to one in 74 home owners, the report from international real estate adviser Savills also shows.
Based on the assumption that the average extension or alteration adds 10% to the value of the average home, this would create an average uplift of £30,000 per property, the report points out.

By contrast mortgaged home movers are still only at half the level they were 10 years ago pre credit crunch, at 358,400 in the year to the end of March 2015, according to data from the Council of Mortgage Lenders (CML).

‘The cost of taking the next step up the housing ladder and the difficulties in acquiring the mortgage finance to do so appear to have encouraged a significant proportion of owner occupiers to extend or alter their existing home,’ said Lucian Cook, head of Savills UK residential research.
‘Changes made by the mortgage market review and increased stamp duty for properties over £1 million are both likely catalysts to home improvements, impeding the rate and volume of transactions in the market,’ he added.

The report also suggest that there is a far greater propensity to alter or extend in high value markets. Savills estimates one in 44 home owners did so in London the year to end March 2015, while £3.6 billion of the £6.5 billion was added to the value of housing stock of London and the South East.
‘High value markets have generally been the strongest performers post credit crunch. Extending has therefore been both more financially viable, with owners recouping the money spent on home improvements through house price growth and more attractive given the relative costs of upsizing,’ said Cook.

The research also shows that Hammersmith and Fulham and Kensington and Chelsea top the list of local authorities with the highest propensity to extend, both creating an uplift in property values of over £100 million before fixtures and fittings are taken into account.
Beyond London, areas such as St Albans, Cambridge, Winsor and Maidenhead and Guildford have all seen significant numbers of home owners extending their home.

It takes almost a year to settle into a home in the UK, survey finds

Most Britons take almost a year to fully settle into a new home with unfinished packing and decorating delaying the process, new research shows. Over half, some 51%, still have unpacking to 304 days after moving and three quarters of slow unpackers admit to being stressed about unfinished unpacking and half of those saying it has caused arguments.

One in four have at least one mystery box that remained packed since their last move and non-essential kitchen equipment such as sandwich toasters and cocktail shakers are most likely remain boxed. Kettles, phone and tablet chargers and bathroom essentials are first to be unboxed, according to the research from London removals and storage firm Kiwi Movers.

Waiting to decorate is the most common excuse for not unpacking fully and people aged between 30 and 35 most likely to take the task somewhat slowly.
The research also found that 75% of those who hadn’t fully unpacked after 10 months of later said that they found having belongings still in boxes stressful, while half of those said the boxes had started to cause arguments.

Some 18% of movers said it took them between 12 and 18 months to get things fully organised, while a small minority of seven percent said they still had things in boxes after two years of living somewhere.

At the other end of the spectrum, a super organised and motivated 3% claimed to have fully unpacked within a day of moving in, while seven percent said they’d got the job done within a week.

The biggest cause for failing to unpack was the need to decorate, with 44% of respondents saying they’d planned to unpack once they’d completed decorating tasks while 31% said the delay in unpacking was due to having insufficient storage, while 12% said they couldn’t agree with their significant other on where to put things.

Some 13% blamed themselves, with 7% saying they were too busy to fully unpack and 6% admitting to being too lazy to finish the job and men living on their own are the most likely to have full boxes lying around, with 79% saying they still had unpacking to do by month ten in their new pad.
Single women were far less likely to let their belongings gather dust, with just 21% with unpacking after 10 months. Single women were also most likely to get the job done inside week one, with 20% claiming to have successfully found a home for all of their belongings.

Regan McMillan, director of Kiwi Movers believes a lot of movers are making their lives unnecessarily hard by packing items they don’t actually need. ‘If a quarter of people are saying they’ve got boxes they never unpacked since their last move, you’ve got to wonder if they really need what’s inside,’ he said.
‘We recommend having a thorough de-clutter prior to moving house so you don’t end up paying to move, then storing or living among items they don’t actually need. In most cases, if you haven’t used it in the last six months, you can most likely do without it,’ he added.

Missing items cause move out misery for UK tenants, research suggests

Tenants in the UK’s private rented sector could lose thousands of pounds due to items that have been detailed in the property inventory going missing at the end of a tenancy, it is claimed. It is a busy time of the year as student tenancies come to an official end and the Association of Independent Inventory Clerks (AIIC) is urging tenants, landlords and letting agents to take extra notice of inventories as tenancies turn over this summer.
The Association points to a recent study carried out by removal firm Kiwi Movers which found that 52% of tenants had experienced trouble with their landlord when it came to the return of their deposit at the end of the tenancy.
The survey also revealed the most common reasons for lost deposits with items missing from the inventory the reason a fifth of participants did not receive their full deposit back. Other reasons tenants lost all or part of their deposit included minor repairs, cleaning and unpaid bills.
‘Tenants should be issued with a copy of the inventory at the beginning of the tenancy and I urge them all to double check all the items listed at that time and to ensure that all items remain in the property, in good condition, when moving out,’ said Pat Barber, chair of the AIIC.
‘If there is something missing it can often be cheaper for the tenant to replace it rather than for the landlord or agent to do so,’ she pointed out.
‘For letting agents and landlords, it is important to go through the inventory fairly and thoroughly when undertaking the check-out process it is advised that the services of an independent inventory clerk are used to ensure impartiality,’ she explained.
‘If both sides of the rental transaction hold up their side of the bargain, the amount of deposit disputes can be kept to a minimum this summer,’ she added.

Residential property sales up in UK after election slowdown

Residential property sales in the UK increased by 4.7% between May and June 2015 and the seasonally adjusted transaction figure was 3.2% higher compared with the same month last year. he official data from HMRC also shows a total of 104,590 residential and 10,460 non-residential transactions in June.
The number of non-adjusted residential transactions was 15.7% higher compared with May 2015 and the number of non-adjusted residential transactions was 5.8% higher than in May 2014.
It means that the UK property market is back on track after disruption caused by a wait and see attitude in the run up to May’s general elections, according to Peter Rollings, chief executive officer of Marsh & Parsons.
He said that the jump in sales in June has started to make up for any shortfall in the months preceding the general election and the market is seeing growth on an annual basis once again.

‘In London, supply of properties for sale and buyer demand are head to head, squaring up for steady price growth over the rest of the summer. Confidence is returning to the capital once again, particularly in the sector £1 million,’ he explained.
‘Buyer registrations are building as aspiring home owners seize hold of low mortgage rates and other incentive schemes currently available to them,’ he added.

Average UK home values up almost 3% in first half of 2015

The average value of homes across Britain rose by 2.75% during the first six months of 2015, with all regions seeing price growth, according to new figures. At the start of July the average price stood at £270,674, up £6,974 on January’s figure of £263,699, the data from property website Zoopla shows.
A breakdown of the data show that although there is general growth the rate of growth varies from region to region. Scotland experienced the highest rate of growth, with an average increase in property values of 6.6% or £11,382, taking the average home value in Scotland to £183,230.
The next best performing regions were the North East and North West registering a 3.1% and 3% increase respectively. Wales was the worst performing region for property price increases over the first half of 2015 with an average rise of only 1% or £1,584.

Among the 50 largest cities in Britain Edinburgh registered the largest growth in house prices since January 2015 of 8.2%, representing a £20,465 increase in the average home value in the city.
Next was Colchester in Essex which saw property prices rise by 7.6% or £19,088, during the six month period, followed by Aberdeen with a 6.4% or £15,416 rise in values. London saw prices rise by only 2.5%, below the national average, but this amounted to a rise of £14,385 because of the higher price of property in the capital city.

Yorkshire had three of the 10 worst performing cities for house price growth in the first half with Rotherham seeing a fall of 2.1% or £2,752. Wolverhampton, Newcastle upon Tyne and Middlesbrough also saw a modest drop in average houses over the period.

‘While national property price growth saw a slow start to the first half of the year, it recovered strongly towards the end of the period. The strong regional figures across the board indicate an economy which is returning to health, with a series of Government incentives designed to encourage home buying helping to boost demand for property in all parts of Britain,’ said Lawrence Hall of Zoopla.

He explained that the surge in property values in Scotland can, in part, be explained as a post referendum bounce, as businesses and capital flood back to Scotland, after withholding investment during the volatile September referendum period in 2014.
‘A post general election feel good factor must not be discounted as more devolution promised has given property prices a bounce as Scots anticipate more jobs and investment coming their way,’ he added.

New South Wales leads Australian new home building boom

New South Wales has become Australia’s top state for new home building with the state of Western Australia, dropping to second place and Victoria in third. The latest biannual house report from the Housing Industry Associations shows that New South Wales is seeing strong levels of multi-unit dwelling construction and detached homes.
‘The buoyant housing market has played a significant role in elevating New South Wales up the rankings,’ said HIA economist, Geordan Murray, but he warned that the rapid price growth has intensified affordability pressures.
‘Lending figures reaffirm the challenges facing first home buyers. First home buyer lending highlights this as the weak spot in the housing market, and ranked New South Wales as the third weakest jurisdiction on this indicator,’ he explained.
The recovery in Queensland continued to gather momentum. The analysis shows the improvements can be attributed to a boost in multi-unit home building. The improvements lifted the state one place up the league table.
‘To maintain the positive momentum we’ll need to see the recovery broaden its base through improvements in detached house building and renovations activity,’ added Murray.
He also pointed out that in the post mining boom era, the focus has been on shifting the drivers of economic growth, which would see eastern states gain prominence. The latest Housing Scorecard highlights that it has been residential building that has picked up the first baton and led the charge.
Meanwhile, the HIA is warning that increasing the GST property tax on new housing to 15% will add tens of thousands of dollars to new home prices, crushing the dream of home ownership for many Australians.
‘New housing is already weighed down by the burden of tax. It is usually seen as an easy cash grab by governments Adding another 5% or more on top of the price of a new home will put housing out of reach of many people that are trying desperately to get into the market,’ said HIA chief executive for industry policy Graham Wolfe.
He pointed out that a 5% increase on a typical house and land package in Sydney, for example, would increase the cost of a mortgage by around $60,000 over the life of the loan.
‘Independent research has demonstrated that the total combined taxes, levies and charges on a new home can be up to 44% of the price of a new house and land package in Sydney. GST currently applies to new housing but not Wolfe.
‘We need more housing stock to accommodate our growing and aging population. Lifting the GST on new housing will dampen new housing activity. Increasing the burden on home buyers should be a no-go area for governments if they are really concerned about housing affordability,’ he added.

Buying beats renting in Aberdeen but it pays to rent in London

Buyers in Aberdeen will be £99,000 better off compared to renters after 7 years

Dundee, Glasgow, Cambridge and Edinburgh also compelling to buy vs. rent
Buying in London with a 10% deposit takes 18 years to become more cost effective than renting
Bournemouth, Huddersfield, Bedford and Swansea also make sense to rent not buy

Aberdeen is the most cost-effective town in Britain for buying property compared to renting. Over a typical seven year period, the average property owner in the Scottish town can expect to be £99,040 better off compared to the equivalent renter, according to research from property website Zoopla.co.uk.
The latest Rent vs. Buy analysis from Zoopla shows that it takes buyers in Aberdeen with a 10% just one year of ownership for buying to become more cost effective than renting. The average property price in Aberdeen is currently £206,060 with average monthly rents at £1,275.
London is currently the most renter-friendly location in Britain. After seven years, a typical London renter would be £82,412 better off than a buyer with a 10% deposit of an equivalent property. It would take 18 years for a London buyer with a 10% deposit to begin to be financially better off compared to the equivalent renter. These calculations are based on a conservative estimate of 4% annual house price growth in the capital.
Bournemouth is the second most renter-friendly town in Britain. With average asking prices of £380,206 and average rents of £1,024 it would take twenty two years for a buyer with a 10% deposit to be better off compared to a renter in an equivalent property. After a seven-year period, a typical renter in Bournemouth would be £30,719 better off than a typical buyer with a 10% deposit.
Lawrence Hall of Zoopla.co.uk comments:: “Despite taking longer to be better off financially, London remains the holy-grail in terms of property investment. It is much more buyer-friendly outside the capital but with rising average prices and low savings rates, accumulating a deposit has become increasingly difficult. It is important to remember that whilst renters may be better off in the short to medium term in some areas of the country, buyers are making a long-term investment. With most buyers opting for mortgage terms of 25 years, over the long term, buyers are likely to be better off compared to those who choose to rent.”
The Zoopla Rent vs. Buy methodology compares all of the costs associated with buying or renting as well as increases in asset or savings value over time. The analysis forecasts the amount of time it will take for buying to become more cost effective than renting across the largest towns and cities in Britain and compares how much buyers or renters are financially better off after the average tenure of a house.

Stamp duty jumps cost sellers over quarter of a billion pounds

£260 million lost by sellers reducing the fair value of their properties
37,266 properties undersold to bring prices below stamp duty thresholds
Sellers of properties in stamp duty “dead-zones” lose £6,990 on average

Stamp duty “dead-zones” have wiped over £260 million off the value of residential properties sold in the England and Wales since April 2012 at an average cost of almost £7,000 to each seller, according to property website Zoopla.co.uk.
Since April 2012, when the last changes were made to the levels of stamp duty charged on the purchase of a residential property, over 37,000 properties have been under-priced in order to avoid costly jumps in stamp duty and make them more attractive to buyers.
In an analysis of property sales since April 2012 , Zoopla found that the number of sales in the price bands immediately before a stamp duty threshold is significantly higher than the level expected, while the number of sales in the price band immediately after a threshold – the stamp duty “dead-zone” – is significantly lower.
Sales volumes vs SDLT price thresholds: £0 - £600k (April 2012 – April 2013)

This trend is particularly prevalent at the £250,000 level. The number of sales in the £250,001 - £265,000 price band was 60% short of the expected volume because over 25,000 sold properties were under-priced to keep them below the stamp duty threshold. At this level, one penny over the £250,000 threshold will add £5,000 to the buyer’s stamp duty bill.
Sellers whose property values fall in a stamp duty “dead-zone” are reducing prices by £6,990 on average. The total amount cut from property prices to keep properties in a lower stamp duty threshold is more than £260m since April 2012.

Lawrence Hall of Zoopla, said:“The current stamp duty system distorts the market and prevents thousands of sellers from achieving the full value of their property when they come to sell. Over the last few years buyer budgets have been squeezed by low savings rates and the high cost of living and this has left buyers less willing to pay the extra stamp duty levied on properties just above stamp duty thresholds.”
“An alternative system which removes the distortions is possible without reducing the revenue received via the Stamp Duty Land Tax. While a graduated system of land tax will mean some buyers pay slightly more than they would in the current system, overall it will make for a fairer approach to taxing property and enable sellers to realise the full value of their home.”

Number of UK property millionaires tops half a million

524,306 Britons are now property millionaires, up 8.3% on last year
10,958 streets in Britain with now have average property values of £1m+
Kensington & Chelsea takes top 3 most expensive streets prize again

The number of homeowners in Britain whose property is worth £1m or more – making them “property millionaires” – has exceeded half a million for the first time, according to the 2015 Zoopla Property Rich List. The number of property millionaires now stands at 524,306 – an increase of 8.3% on last year’s figure.
The growth in house prices at the top end of the market has helped fuel the increase in the number of streets with average property values of £1m+. There are now 10,958 streets in Britain with average property prices over £1m with 43% located in London. Areas outside the capital with the highest proportion of £1m+ streets are all in Surrey, with Guildford, Leatherhead and Richmond housing 158, 154 and 144 respectively.
At the very top end of the market, the data shows there are now 13 streets in Britain where the average house price is over £10 million – all of which are in London. Kensington Palace Gardens in W8 ranked as the country’s most expensive street overall, with homes there worth £42,591,972 on average, over 150 times the average national property value.
The Boltons in SW10, where a nine-bedroom detached house sold for £51m in April, takes second place, with average property values standing at £30,288,586. Grosvenor Crescent in the exclusive suburb of SW1 rounds out the top three, with an average property price of £22,752,425.
While exclusive London boroughs boast most of Britain’s priciest properties, certain areas of Surrey and Buckinghamshire have also acquired a reputation for very high property values. Virginia Water and Cobham, both in Surrey, top the towns table, with average property prices of £1,208,638 and £1,037,825 respectively. Beaconsfield in Buckinghamshire, where the average property value amounts to £982,660, comes in third.
In terms of postcodes, W8 (Kensington) remains top of the heap, boasting average property prices of £2.77m. Neighbouring SW7 (Knightsbridge), the next most expensive area in the capital, has average values of £2.43m, while property values in third-placed SW3 (Chelsea) stand at £2.24m.
Lawrence Hall of Zoopla, said: “London continues to be the epicentre of the million-pound property market in Britain but the Zoopla Property Rich List reveals a number of high value property areas outside the capital, particularly in Surrey and Buckinghamshire, that are very attractive to professionals seeking to live outside yet within easy reach of the city and enjoy low crime rates coupled with good schools.”

How to Get Money Back When Buying Real Estate

If you have the knowledge there are many ways you can get some money back from the seller when
buying real estate. One of these ways is to get the seller to pay for the closing cost. The closing cost may not be a lot of money compared to the price of the property so it is a good thing to negotiate. If a
seller is eager to sell a small thing like closing cost will not let him or her leave the bargaining table.

Another way you can get some money back from the seller when buying real estate is getting the seller to pay for the taxes for the rest of the year in witch you are buying the property. Again this will not be a lot of money compared to the property witch makes it a good thing to put on the bargaining table. One last way to get some money back from the seller when buying real estate is getting the seller to pay for the things that need to be repaired or replaced. This can be a lot or a little, it all depends on the shape the property is in. This is harder the get a seller to agree to than the first two, but it is not impossible to find a seller that will. If the property needs a lot of work it is good idea to see if you can get the seller to pay for half or more of the repair cost.

All ways make sure that if you do get the seller to agree to give you back any money for any reason that you get it in writing. It is a good way to make sure every one is on the same page. Getting money back when buying real estate is not an easy thing to ask for, but if you know what to ask for it can make the process a whole lot easer. This is a good way to help you to save a lot of your hard earn money.

A good web site where you can see more information on topics like this is Real Estate Facts which is highly recommended. Thank you and enjoy.

The Truth About Rent to Own

Even though rent to own may be good for a short period of time, it proves to be an expensive way for someone to buy something they intend to keep. Rent to own merchandise for example, may sound quite compelling at a few dollars a week. The agreement is normally for around 15 - 20 months, which is where the company makes their money. Although you may be paying just a few dollars a week, the total amount quickly adds up to nearly twice the cost of the item.
Along with paying rent, you'll also have to pay applicable sales tax as well. Like merchandise, rent to own real estate has it's disadvantages. Even though it can be great for those with not so great credit, you'll normally end up paying back a lot more than you would with a mortgage. You'll still have to pay back your lender with a mortgage, although that amount won't be nearly as high as it would if you decided to get a house on a rent to own basis.

In most cases, rent to own houses are put up on the market by the owner. This way, you'll deal directly with the owner. It will start out as a traditional lease, then proceed to a rent to own basis if you decide you want to keep the home. You and the owner will then work out an arrangement, which will normally be quite a few years. Some owners are very flexible and will work with you just to get the price they want for their home, while others will charge you quite a bit more, in order to make a hefty profit.

If you have bad credit and can't get approved for a mortgage, then rent to own would be your next best option. Although some don't like to do it due to the price, for many it's a better alternative than an apartment. With rent to own houses you are paying money towards the home, instead of just paying rent. In some cases this is fine, although you should make sure to double check with the owner before you agree or commit to anything. This way, you'll know how much you'll be paying for the home - and for how long.

Wholesaling Real Estate

When you start looking for ways to make the most of your budget while flipping a house, it's best to start with the basics. You will have to spend some money, but if you set aside personal likes and tastes and instead put yourself in the mind of the buyer, your return will far outstrip your investment!

There are seven main areas to concentrate on when you are in the process of flipping a house:
1. Choosing the right home. If the home only has cosmetic problems and is in a popular and desirable neighborhood that's a good choice. Stay away from homes needing major repair and/or are in non desirable neighborhoods.
2. Hire a home inspector. Once you have found the house that fits your criteria make sure you get it inspected. Most home inspectors are only a few hundred dollars which will save you a ton in the long run. They can prevent undetected and expensive repairs from showing up when you least expect them. They will see what you can't and the good part is if anything comes up they are held liable so they will make sure to do a thorough inspection for you and find things that were not previously visible.
3. Purchase the home below market value. Some homeowners are not willing or able to correct cosmetic flaws. This is where you can clean up! If you can get a home at a bargain basement price you are on your way to making some serious profit.
4. Renovate the home. By putting careful thought into which elements of the home will be renovated, you increase your chances of flipping a house successfully. Before you get started, be sure to look for any areas that are in disrepair and a sore to the eyes. Concentrate the bulk of you renovation budget toward the kitchens and the bathrooms for these two areas of the home will receive the most scrutiny. By paying close attention to these two areas you will get back the most return on your investment.

5. The kitchen. The appearance of the kitchen can make or break your investment. By adding new cabinetry, countertops and appliances you are on your way to improving the look of the kitchen and your profits as well. Consider replacing an older model sink with a stainless steel kitchen sink which is all the rage right now. If you really want to make an impression take a look at some under-mount kitchen sinks. By purchasing discount sinks you can keep a sharp eye on your budget while not infringing upon you profits.
6. The bathroom. This is the other place to spend money. By adding a fresh tile job for the shower and floor you will add a splash of luxury that is certain to nab the interest of prospective buyers. By expanding the bathroom you can alleviate the feeling of being cramped and crowded in an old bathroom.
7. Ensure the home has curb appeal. Focus on ensuring the home has curb appeal. Before the buyer will even see what you have done on the inside of the home they will first judge your property by what the see on the outside. Ensure the lawn is mowed and all trash is picked up. Get rid of all debris. A fresh paint job or power wash will do wonders to add to the home's curb appeal.
A welcome mat as well as flowers will show that you take pride in your work. Using these basic house flipping tips will improve both the looks and value of your investment!

Real Estate Investing Isn't Too Hard To Learn About

Real estate investing can be quite lucrative, but it also has its downfalls, too. To have success in this field, this article is a must. Keep reading to find out ways to make money by investing in real estate.

Go into the meetings that you have with potential investors with a positive mindset, but understand that a negative outcome is possible. Always have a jovial, but businesslike personality to get the people who want to invest to like you. This will go a long way and make your potential investors more comfortable.

You should know that reputation is of the utmost importance when it comes to real estate. You should keep your word and not lie. This gives you credibility and will help people to be loyal to you.

Always get your properties inspected. Inspections are not a bad thing, and you shouldn't think of them as an annoying expense. Inspections can uncover serious issues that may not be immediately apparent. This can give you negotiating leverage or allow you to fix issues before someone else requests an inspection.

Find other investors and talk to them. This will give you a stronger foundation than just reading books. It can be useful to have a few real estate investor friends. The Internet is a place where you can locate help. Forums, in particular, can be a big help.

Never invest too much money in the beginning as this can cause a lot of problems down the road. Overextending yourself can lead to problems with your savings plans and prevent you from buying great properties in the near future. Develop the proper budget and follow it to a tee.

When considering what real estate to purchase, the word "location" should come to mind. However, many people forget to think about all the concerns that are factored into "location." Find out all the information you can about the neighborhood, such as surrounding home values, crime rates, schools, employment and more.

Many people who are interested in buying and selling real estate join real estate clubs, and you should too! In this venue, you will find a high concentration of people who are interested in the properties you have to offer and/or who have properties on offer that you may really want. This is a great place to network, share your business cards and fliers and promote your business.

If you have an investment property, one of the most important things to have is an emergency fund for unexpected repairs or emergencies that might come up on the property. One way you can do this is by putting aside some of the monthly rental money you collect for this purpose.

Before you buy investment property in a neighborhood, find out if the city has anything planned for the areas surrounding this neighborhood. For example, you would not want to buy in an area if the city proposed to turn an area into landfill. If there are positive improvements on the horizon, this may be a good investment.

As you may already know, there is good money to be made by investing in real estate. Read through again to solidify your knowledge. Be sure to share this investment knowledge with other people so that they can also find success.

Solution for making more from your business buying and selling

When it comes to any business you must ensure that you make the right kind of marketing or you won't have customers. Any kind of business needs of customers or will all the money. When people start their business and one thing I've noticed is that they don't spend enough time to come up with a marketing plan. This is what I feel is one of the most important things when you start a new task, because it will allow you to get your message in front of your customers. A good marketing campaign can lead to sales and new contacts and can help your business take flight again. So where should start is the big question.

A common way that a lot of small businesses use to reach their customers locally is advertised in local publications. This can be by newspapers magazines. The good thing about this is the fact that if you're a local business, your ad will be in front of people who matter most are the people who is located near your business. When advertising in these publications ensures that you create your ad right and are able to get your message clearly. Another tool that can help market your business is printing brochures, business cards or flyers. This is a great way to get your business out there and also get your message. Have a great brochure or flyer can really make a difference in the marketing campaign.

Mobile marketing for entrepreneurs comes in different forms, so when you decide to use your mobile device to your customers for marketing purposes, go with a company that provides custom packages. There is not only a mobile solution, so speak with your provider to determine which method best suits your needs. The best mobile solution for marketing your home business can be discussed with a professional consultant. This will allow you to show yourself and your business and this won't cost you an arm and a leg to do. If you're not an expert in graphic design I recommend hiring a professional like you don't want to create something that will create a bad impression of your business.

Another thing to try is online marketing. With more people moving their living online it is important to have an online presence. You will need to create a website in the first place to help people find online and also get your message. After your website is built, you can advertise on other websites like Google. Google has a marketing program called Ad words where you can bid to appear in the search results for certain keywords. An average cost about $ 1.00 per click, but it is a great way to find targeted prospects. A fourth tip is to try to throw an event or a party and inviting potential customers.

Marketing professionals are involved in the planning, promotion, and distribution of products and services. The marketing program is designed to provide students with a strong knowledge of marketing mix elements used by companies to meet the customer's wishes and needs. In addition to the fundamentals of marketing strategy, the required courses integrate global society and sustainability aspects of the market to give students an appreciation of how marketing strategies are used in the globalised economy as well as in the public sector and non-profit. It has also good career opportunities such as marketing research, distribution management, production management and other important factors of business marketing.
