What are QR codes?

The reason why they are more useful than a standard barcode is that they can store (and digitally present) much more data, including url links, geo coordinates, and text. The other key feature of QR Codes is that instead of requiring a chunky hand-held scanner to scan them, many modern cell phones can scan them.

They look like this: ____________

How does the cell phone read the code?

They come to us from Japan where they are very common. QR is short for Quick Response (they can be read quickly by a cell phone). They are used to take a piece of information from a transitory media and put it in to your cell phone. We use QR Codes in our magazine to see the virtual tour or website of a property. Once it is in your cell phone, it will give you details about that property or business.

The cell phone needs a QR code reader, which most of them are free from your app store. It takes literally 1 minute for someone with an iPhone or Android phone to find and install the reader

How QR codes work 1. The QR code is scanned by a device, in this case a smart phone.

2. QR code software on the phone analyzes the image and extracts encoded information.

One long-time realtor says that in spite of a shift to younger prospects, her male buyers are still interested in garages, basements, attics, and crawlspaces. She said women are more interested in kitchens and the flow of the floor plan for entertaining.

The National Association of Realtors recently made an in-depth study of what single male and female buyers want; what married couples want; and what unmarried couples want. Some of their findings: They asked single men and women what features were “very important,” and 32 percent of men and 21 percent of women cited new kitchen appliances.

Granite countertops were must-haves for 24 percent of men and 11 percent of women.

And 19 percent of single men said a kitchen island was very important compared with 8 percent of women.

In an unexpected finding, 38 percent of single men said a walk-in closet was very imported vs. 29 percent of women.

Updated basements were rated as very important by 16 percent of men and 13 percent of women.

Among married couples, 42 percent wanted a walk-in closet in the master bedroom. New kitchen appliances were thought to be very important by 21 percent of couples. About 24 percent wanted a single level home, and 34 percent of couples wanted ceilings that were 9 feet high.

Answer:

Would this be a good time to buy an apartment house?

Ask the Editor

I would say that it is, in fact, it’s a better time than in the past for several reasons.

American cities, and not just the priciest ones, are more and more the domain of renters. That’s certainly the case in the 11 core cities, the largest cities, according to Census Bureau statistics.

Lisamarie Schmidt In Miami and New York, more than 60 percent of households are rented.

In San Francisco, it’s 57 percent, followed closely by Washington D.C., Houston, Dallas, Chicago at 52 percent, and Atlanta at 49 percent. Owning a home in these cities is very expensive.

In other cities and localities, homes are more affordable, but a large percentage of Americans still prefer to rent. As job growth draws entry-level or middle-income workers from other parts if the country, they want to rent until they decide whether they like the area and like their jobs.

The demand for apartments is rising so fast that it is starting to overwhelm supply.

A report by Furman Center concludes that as the number of renters grows, vacancy rates will fall, rents will rise, and renters will have higher costs for housing.

While these people can afford to rent, they have not had the opportunity to save for a down payment for a home.

So it appears that all signals in this area are “go.”

If a four-plex would do for a starter in rental properties, and if you wouldn’t mind living in one unit for a while, you could get the same terms as you would on a singlefamily home.

Otherwise, mortgage companies would charge more interest for a rental property, maybe 2 percentage points higher than on a single-family home.

Still, basic mortgage interest rates are at a historical low, and you would consider interest a part of your expenses and set rents accordingly.

As you might expect, newer homes generally experience the fewest problems or defects.

However, the survey does point to some areas which can be of concern, even in a new or newer home.

Homes in this age range tend to require more repairs than newer ones. In a few categories, homes in this age group actually score worse than older homes. This is generally because systems in these homes are nearing the end of their useful service life, while in the older homes these systems will have been replaced.

While the expression “they don’t build them like they used to” has some truth behind it, older homes generally need more repairs — due to normal wear & tear and aging. It’s interesting to note that in selected categories, the often simpler systems in older homes hold up well.

UPDATE ON HUD $100 DOWN PAYMENT! HUD has recently changed the way they market their HUD foreclosed homes. They are trying to upgrade their image and they do not want to their foreclosed homes to be lump in with the other “bank foreclosures”.

You still have to place your bid for a HUD foreclosed home on the Internet and you still have to use a Realtor. So, for the homebuyer that part is pretty much the same as before.

But, the most important thing is they are still going to offer the HUD $100 Down Payment Incentive in most parts of the country!

The normal down payment for FHA Home Loans is 3.5% and for conventional loans the down payment is up to 20%. Most people that want to purchase a home really don’t have a lot of money available for a down payment so they are left out of today’s home market. But everyone should be able to come up with hundred dollars for a down payment.

But this is a government program and there are, of course, some strings attached.You have some requirements in order to take advantage of this $100 down payment program.

The $100 Down Payment Program Has the Following Requirements: 1. HUD Foreclosed Homes Only! This FHA $100 Down Payment Loan is for the purchase of HUD foreclosure homes.

2. Have to use FHA financing.You cannot use conventional financing.

3. This program is for Owner-Occupants only, not for Investors.You have to sign a form at closing stating you are going to live in the property and not use it has an investment such as a rental property.

4.You still need to have the earnest money of $1,000 for properties listed above $50,000 and $500 for properties listed for less than $50,000. Earnest money will be returned to you at closing as a credit on the Closing Statement.

5.You can ask HUD to pay for closing costs up to 3% of purchase price.

If you are going to buy a home in the near future, you need to consider HUD Homes with this HUD Homes $100 Down Payment Program. This program is a national program and the perfect HUD foreclosed home could be in your area.

Earnest Money Forfeiture and/or Return The following provisions are applicable in all instances except those where HUD is unable or unwilling to close the sale, in which case the entire amount will be returned.

Investor Purchasers: •

Uninsured Sales: 100% of the deposit will be forfeited to HUD for failure to close, regardless of the reason.

•

Insured Sales:

• 50% of the deposit will be forfeited to HUD for failure to close if the purchaser is determined by HUD to be an unacceptable buyer.

• 100% of the deposit will be forfeited to HUD if the sale fails to close for any other reason.

Owner-Occupant Purchasers: Return 100% of the deposit when:

•

There has been a death in the immediate family (purchaser, spouse or children living in the same household).

• There has been a recent serious illness in the immediate family that has resulted in significant medical expenses or substantial loss of income, thus adversely, affecting the purchaser’s financial ability to close the sale.

•

There has been a loss of job by one of the primary breadwinners, or a substantial loss of income through no fault of the purchaser.

•

For an FHA insured sale, HUD (or a D.E. underwriter) determines that the purchaser is not an acceptable borrower. For an uninsured sale, the purchaser was pre-approved for mortgage financing in an appropriate amount by a recognized lender and, despite good faith efforts, is unable to obtain mortgage financing. “Pre- approved” means a commitment has been obtained from a recognized mortgage lender for mortgage financing in a specified dollar amount sufficient to purchase the property.

• There is other equally good cause, as determined by AM Contractor, in keeping with the spirit and intent of the above policy.

Return 50% of the deposit when: For an uninsured sale, despite good faith efforts by the purchaser, there is an inability to obtain a mortgage loan from a recognized mortgage lender.

Forfeit 100% if the deposit when:

• No documentation is submitted.

• Documentation fails to provide an acceptable cause for the buyer’s failure to close.

• Documentation is not provided within a reasonable time following contract cancellation.

Vacant Lot Sales: The purchaser is considered to be an investor and instructions pertaining to investors will apply.

Closing Costs (Line 5) HUD pays certain Closing Costs up to 3% of the purchase price, IF inserted on line 5 of the sales contract when the electronic bid is submitted. Enter this numeric figure (not percentage) on line 5.

IndyInvestorMagazine.com

Closing Time Frame For DEMCO & OFORI: HOMETELOS: Just exchange 45 to 30 & 30 to 45 All purchasers must close on or before forty-five (45) days of contract acceptance date for normal and cash closings.

203k must close sixty (60) days of contract acceptance.

Closing Extension Policy ALL SALES ARE EXPECTED TO CLOSE WITHIN THE APPLICABLE TIME FRAME IDENTIFIED ON LINE 9 OF THE SALE CONTRACT. Closing Extension Request: If the closing does not occur on the specified date on line 9 of the HUD Sales Contract 9548, the Broker should contact HUD’s Closing Agent at least two weeks prior to that date to request an extension.

AM Contractors, as HUD’s Representative, may grant an extension of closing time and, if approved, each extension will be for a period of fifteen (15) days: • Submit the “Request For Extension of Closing Date” (Extension Request form) and all the required supplemental supporting documents to HUD’s Closing Agent prior to the expiration of the sales contract.

• Documentation submitted with the extension request must establish that a closing can reasonably be expected to occur within the extension period.

• The extension request must be accompanied by a cashier’s check, money order or other certified funds in the appropriate amount and made payable to HUD. The fee is based on the Contract Sales Price:

Contract Sales Price

Extension Fee

Equal to or less than $25,000.00

$150.00 ($10.00 per day)

$25,000.01 to $50,000.00

$225.00 ($15.00 per day)

$50,000.01 and over

$375.00 ($25.00 per day)

• The initial 15-day extension will be provided for owner occupant purchasers, at no cost, if documentation is provided indicating that proper and timely loan application was made, that the delayed closing is not the fault of the purchaser and that mortgage approval is imminent.

• The extension fee will be retained by HUD. In the event that the purchaser closes prior to the end of the extension period, the unused, prorated portion of the extension fee will be credited to the amount due at closing.

•

The approval of an extension does not obligate AM Contractor, as HUD’s Representative, to grant future extensions.

Home Inspection

There is a 15 day due diligence period.You must have FSM authorize your home inspection.You have 48 hours to complete home inspection after last utility is turned on and you must turn off utilities after inspection.

IndyInvestorMagazine.com

37

Fill out a utility activation request form. The utilities are to be turned on in the purchaser’s name and at purchaser’s expense. The purchaser is responsible for the actual costs to activate, deactivate and when necessary, re-winterize the property. The purchaser must place a refundable $150 deposit, in the form of certified funds or money order. The amount is sufficient to cover these costs. This deposit is required to ensure the property has been re-winterized. It is the buyer’s responsibility and cost to re-winterize. If the property has not been re-winterized at the end of the allowable 72 hr period, this may result in a delay of closing (buyer will also be responsible for any property damage incurred).

form HUD-9548 (1/99)

The no-credit movement is gaining steam, with the simple philosophy that credit is bad, and cash is king. Still, when it comes to buying a house, even the cash-only crowd sometimes wants a mortgage. Problem is, if you have no credit accounts, you have no credit history.

What happens, then, if they want a mortgage?

Manual underwriting that can offer a person with no credit score, or a bad credit history, a chance to successfully negotiate a mortgage. The process is time-consuming but can offer hope to people rebuilding their credit or to those who reject credit on principle.

Without a credit report, lenders must have some way to see if an applicant is reliable and has enough income to afford a mortgage.

It is up to the borrower to prove the case.

One way is to show payments on non-traditional credit accounts. An applicant will have to prove that, for at least 12 months, he or she has made ontime payments on non-traditional credit accounts.

Accounts like these are not typically included in a credit report: rent, utilities, cell phones, insurance, cable television and internet access.

He or she will have to show check stubs or bank statements. The lender may even call the landlord or other third parties to verify the information.

New online services, such as ecredable.com, offer to track these non-traditional payments to set up an alternative credit report and can be an asset to a borrower.

An applicant must also show job stability (even

a statement from an employer can help). The longer in a position, the better. Even the company they are with counts. An underwriter will consider employment at a large firm a better bet than a smaller firm.

Next, the applicant must show financial resources such as a savings account, and a detailed explanation of all income sources.

Finally, the applicant has to answer the lenderâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s main question: Does the applicant have the money to make the monthly mortgage payments? That means the applicant must detail all the payments he or she makes now and demonstrate that he can make a mortgage payment. An applicant who has no credit history by choice will probably be able to show that he or she can make the mortgage payments since they have no other credit accounts.

But an applicant who does have a credit account, such as a car payment, will have to show that the mortgage will not strain his or her current finances.

A cash down payment of at least 3.5 percent is necessary but on a manual underwrite, 10 percent gives the applicant the best chance.

If an applicant in a manual underwriting situation has any stain (bankruptcy or loan defaults) on his or her credit report, they will be asked to write an explanation of it. A very detailed explanation in writing can help here. Be sure to address every aspect of the debt.

203(k) - How Is It Different?

of the property being financed. A portion of the loan proceeds are used to pay the seller, or, if a refinance, to pay off the existing mortgage, and the remaining funds are placed in an escrow account and released as rehabilitation is completed. You may also roll in up to six months of mortgage payments if the HUD consultant determines you need to be displaced from the home during the repairs.

When a homebuyer wants to purchase a house in need of repair or modernization, the homebuyer usually has to obtain financing first to purchase the dwelling; additional financing to do the rehabilitation construction; and a permanent mortgage when the work is completed to pay off the interim loans with a permanent mortgage. Often the interim financing (the acquisition and construction loans) involves relatively high interest rates and short amortization periods. The Section 203(k) program was designed to address this situation. The borrower can get just one mortgage loan, at a long-term fixed (or adjustable) rate, to finance both the acquisition and the rehabilitation of the property. To provide funds for the rehabilitation, the mortgage amount is based on the projected value of the property with the work completed, taking into account the cost of the work.

We will discuss both of these loans in detail but first letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s discuss the 203(k) process from start to finish.

Most mortgage financing plans provide only permanent financing. That is, the lender will not usually close the loan unless the condition and value of the property provide adequate loan security. When rehabilitation is involved, this means that a lender typically requires the improvements to be finished before a long-term mortgage is made.

These are two Different 203(k) Loans Available

Hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s What You Can Expect:

1. Find a Property and Make the Offer - A potential homebuyer locates a fixer-

upper and executes a purchase agreement or sales contract after doing a feasibility analysis of the property with their real estate agent.

2. Find a FHA approved Lender and Meet with a 203(k) Specialist

- The homebuyer then selects an FHA-approved 203(k) lender and arranges for a detailed proposal from licensed contractors showing the scope of the work to be done, including a detailed cost estimate on each repair or improvement of the project.

3. Appraise the Property - The appraisal

is performed to determine the value of the property Choosing which loan suits you best will depend after renovation. The appraiser will also determine on the amount of improvement your property if there are any additional repairs necessary for the property to meet minimum FHA property needs. guidelines. Any health or safety issues would be Streamlined: The 203(k) Streamline is an addressed at this time. all-in-one loan used for homes that need minor repairs.

The occupy the property. amount of the loan will also include a contingency Standard: The Standard 203(k) is an all-in-one reserve of 10% to 20% of the total renovation costs loan used when homes need major rehabilitation, and is used to cover any overages resulting from or when repairs are structural, involves landscaping, extra work required to complete the work proposed. or when the renovation costs exceed $35,000. There At closing, the seller of the property is paid off and must be a minimum of $5,000 worth of repairs, and the remaining funds are put in an escrow account again, the borrower must occupy the property. FHA to pay for the repairs and improvements during the loan limits are based on property type and location rehabilitation period.

5. Work Begins on the Property

(2) Must be owner occupied (no investors)

The mortgage payments and renovation begin after the loan closes. The borrower can decide to have up to six mortgage payments (PITI) put into the cost of rehabilitation if the property is not going to be occupied during construction, but it cannot exceed the length of time it is estimated to complete the rehab.

(4) The lesser of 5 units in the project or 25% of the total number of units can be undergoing rehabilitation at the same time

6. Disbursements & Payment (Draws) - Escrowed funds are released to the

contractor during construction through a series of draw requests for completed work. To ensure completion of the job, 10% of each draw is held back; this money is paid after the lender determines there will be no liens on the property. The borrower will always approve the release of funds to the contractor.

(3) Rehab is limited only to the interior of the property

(5) The maximum amount of the loan cannot exceed 100% of the after improved value (6) No more than four condo units per building

How the Program Can Be Used This program can be used to accomplish rehabilitation and/or improvement of an existing one-to-four unit dwelling in one of three ways: (1) To purchase a home and rehabilitate it.

Eligible Properties

(2) To purchase a dwelling on another site, move it onto a new foundation and rehabilitate it.

To be eligible, the property must be a one- to fourfamily dwelling that has been completed for at least one year. In addition to typical home rehabilitation projects, this program can be used to convert a one-family dwelling to a two-, three-, or four-family dwelling. An existing multi-unit dwelling could be decreased to a one- to four-family unit.

(3) To refinance an existing mortgage and rehabilitate the home.

A 203(k) mortgage may be originated on a “mixed use” residential property provided: (1) The property has no greater than 25 percent (for a one story building); 33 percent (for a three story building); and 49 percent (for a two story building) of its floor area used for commercial (storefront) purposes; (2) The commercial use will not affect the health and safety of the occupants of the residential property; and (3) The rehabilitation funds will only be used for the residential functions of the dwelling and areas used to access the residential part of the property.

A 203(k) mortgage may be originated on a condominium provided: (1) The condominium project has been approved

by FHA

Timelines & Disbursements for the 203(k) Streamline

Timelines - When the loan closes, the mortgage proceeds will be disbursed to pay off the seller

of the existing property and the Rehabilitation Escrow Account will be established. Construction may begin. Depending on the type of improvements the homeowner has up to six (6) months for completion.

Disbursements & Payments (Draws) - No more than two payments may be made to each

The Lender will allow the first payment at closing to cover for, and not exceed, actual required contractor deposits, building permits, and/or the cost of building materials incurred prior to construction.

Before a final disbursement is made, the borrower must sign a statement acknowledging that the work has been completed in a workmanlike and satisfactory manner. A final inspection is required regardless of the improvement or repair, and must be done at completion before the final disbursement is released.

Any leftover funds are applied to principal balance of the loan.

Features of the Standard 203(k)

FHA Approved Consultants

- All Standard 203(k) loans must use a FHA Approved 203(k) consultant. The HUD consultant will be very helpful as they will assist you in determining the scope of repairs and the budget for the work to be done. Once the project has been determined the HUD consultant will give you a “specification of repairs” plan that will detail the work to be completed and the associated costs. The HUD consultant will also carry out the disbursement and final inspections needed to pay your contractors. Basically they are there to help you through the construction process and verify all work is completed satisfactorily and as stated and that the home meets HUD’s minimum property guidelines when repairs are completed.
