What You Need to Know About Selling Your Home in Jacksonville, NC

Foreclosures in Jacksonville NC, Home Value Depreciation in Jacksonville NC, I need help selling my home in Jacksonville NC, New Construction in Jacksonville NC, Selling Your Home in Jacksonville NC, What is happening with the real estate market in Jacksonville NC, what is my home worth in Jacksonville NC, What You Need to Know About Selling Your Home in Jacksonville NC, Why can't I sell my home in Jacksonville NC, Why is the market bad in Jacksonville NC

If you are considering a move or have just been told by the Marine Corps that you have orders to another location, here are some things you need to know about selling your home in Jacksonville, NC:

If you have lived around Jacksonville, NC for at least the past five years, you have probably heard talk in last few about how “bad the market has become”. Yes, it is true that our real estate market has shifted here from a “seller’s market” (when there are more buyers than active inventory or there is only about 5 months or less of active inventory) to a “buyer’s market”. Jacksonville, NC, home to the Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, was not in the distressed situation that the majority of the United States found itself in a few years ago. While states like California & Florida, to name a few, were experiencing a high increase in the amount of REOs (real estate owned, aka Foreclosures), the homeowners of Jacksonville, NC were still seeing appreciation in home values.

As out-of-town builders began to focus their sights on the thriving real estate market here, sellers felt the pinch of the new shift as new construction homes sold for a lower price per square foot than ever before. The result was too predictable: in order to compete with new construction, sellers found themselves needing to reduce asking prices to lower than they could afford. Many tried to complete VA Compromise Sales (a short sale on a VA loan), however not many were successful. The unfortunate outcome was that Jacksonville, NC saw a dramatic increase in the number of REOs or foreclosures.

What Every Seller in Jacksonville, NC Needs to Know

What Every Seller in Jacksonville, NC Needs to Know

 

As you can see from the illustration above, the only areas of the market in Jacksonville, NC that have increased greatly are foreclosure sales. As someone who watches the market constantly, I expect to see these numbers continue to rise over the next few years.

What Every Home Seller in Jacksonville, NC Should Know

Jovi & Gunner

As one who has been entrusted over the years with the care of many dogs, cats, hamsters, fish, birds, hermit crabs, guinea pigs, and other little creatures, I have developed a great bond for my furry little family members and view them as such. If you are one of those people who regard your pets as family, you will know exactly what I’m talking about here.

After my husband and I had been dating for a few years and were engaged to be married, we were presented with the opportunity to adopt a Boxer puppy. He was a sweet little thing whose brother nearly died after inhaling a piece of puppy chow. Gunner quickly became a huge part of our lives, however my apartment I lived in would not allow for puppies. In fact, most rental options we looked into would not even consider a dog under a year old and would definitely not entertain renting to the parents of a puppy that would grow to be approximately 100 pounds! As a homeowner and real estate agent now, we completely understand this standard having seen many of our clients’ homes destroyed by tenants who were not the cleanest pet parents.

After we were married and fully emerged in all of the joys of puppy-parenthood, we purchased our first home together. It was very liberating to feel the freedom from worry that the landlord would stop by and blow us out of the water because Gunner had yet again dug a war trench in the backyard. Well, he had to protect us from the terrorist neighborhood cat, and how else was he going to execute a sneak attack without the ability to take cover in his trenches, right? So, after signing enough paperwork to take down a forest, Gunner made his romping ground in his new 1/4 acre fenced in back yard complete with doggie door to allow him to come and go as he pleased without tearing up the storm door as he had in our rental home (yes, of course we replaced it). We still live in this home today and have raised three daughters here as well as several other critters.

Gunner passed away this year after battling Lymphatic Cancer. We look back with such fond memories of how he was the reason that we got married when we did and purchased our home at that specific time. If we had not had the opportunity to adopt him when we did, we may have stayed in our rental for a few more years missing out on some really great benefits as homeowners, as well as some incredible happy memories as parents of such a sweet animal.

Our Gunner ~ Rest in Peace, Wedding Puppy

Our Gunner ~ Rest in Peace, Wedding Puppy

As of today we only have 2 dogs, Jovi, a mini-schnauzer (named after Jon Bon Jovi by my daughter) and Brian, a yellow lab who has taken over our hearts with his child-like spirit and orneriness.

Brain at the Beach

We are so thankful to own our home and have the freedom and ability to adopt puppies who need homes without the hassle of a landlord or property manager telling us who we can welcome into our home. If you are ready for this kind of freedom to enjoy all the joys of becoming a pet parent, check out my website for some great home-ownership options, and call me to find out how easy it is to get financing on a new home in North Carolina. My hope is that every person who would ever have it in their hearts to truly take care of a furry little family member would be fully equipped with all of the resources needed to be the best parent they could be, including an excellent place to call your family home.

How Much Does it Cost to Rent a Home?

01 Saturday Sep 2012

The Cost of Renting a Home

How Much Does it REALLY Cost to Rent a Home?

How much does it cost to rent a home? Is the thought of paying a mortgage keeping you from owning a home? If so, keep in mind that if you’re renting you ARE paying a mortgage, it just happens to be your landlord’s and not yours. This means you’re building up your landlord’s equity each time you pay your rent.

With mortgage interest rates at a historic low (for the time being), you can’t afford NOT to consider purchasing a home in lieu of renting. For example, It could potentially cost you $900-1000 per month to rent a 2 bedroom apartment or townhouse in Jacksonville NC. The same $900-100 per month could get you a brand new 3 bedroom 2 bath home with a fenced in backyard AND you may even get to pick out the colors of your counters, cabinets, light fixtures, etc!

Use the mortgage calculator to figure how much you could be saving by buying a home with an interest rate of 3.5%

Calculate Your Mortgage Payment

DON’T FORGET TO PUT A ZERO IN THE BALLOON PAYMENT BOX!

When you rent, your property manager or landlord will most likely ask you to come up with the first and last month’s rent. Let’s pretend that your rent is $1000 per month. That’s $2,000 out of pocket you will spend, and if you have pets it will likely be another $250-350! Add in a $30-40 application fee and you might as well kiss that new pair of shoes goodbye!

When you buy a home you will need to come up with an EMD or earnest money deposit which comes back to you as a credit at the time of closing. In our market, Jacksonville, NC, it’s common to see EMD as low as $250-500. In a market where sellers are paying for buyer’s closing costs right now, this means that a buyer can quite possibly purchase a home with no money down, if using a VA or USDA loan, AND get money back at closing! And since you pay your mortgage in arrears (when you actually make the payment you are paying for the previous month), You will not have to make a mortgage payment until the month AFTER the month after you close! So if you close on your home in September, NO MORTGAGE PAYMENT UNTIL NOVEMBER!

Take a look at this comparison of cost of renting vs. buying:
