Lynn has answers. by Lynn Arseneau
I’ve been a Realtor for 32 years. People frequently ask for my advice and opinions, and by sharing those questions and answers with you, I hope to offer some helpful information.
Dear Lynn, It’s 2019 and I’m planning to get engaged, married and buy a house this year. I’ve never done this before and don’t really know what I need to do to be sure I’ll get a loan. I have some debt, a few credit cards I need to maybe get rid of but I did make my last car payment in December and I’m thinking about buying a new car. I have $14,000 saved and a new job that I just started in November and hopefully I’ll be there for a long while. Any thoughts? (Don’t use my real name because my girlfriend reads your column!) No Clue from Cheshire
Q

Dear Lynn, Wow, the real estate market has slowed down from what we see! We need to sell our house and I’m worried that winter is a bad time. Our house looks beautiful in the spring and summer but not so good in the winter. I’d like to wait until spring to list it but we really need to get going as my husband is starting a new job in Tennessee. My husband isn’t worried at all and says, “it is what it is”. That just doesn’t help me! Any words of comfort?
BUT I’ll give this a try, no charge. Here are the facts: You HAVE to move You HAVE to put your house on the market NOW It’s WINTER You can’t do anything about those things. Here’s what you CAN do: Make your house look super-totally-wicked awesome inside! The best it’s ever looked! Pack up everything you don’t need and store it, ship it or pile the boxes and bins neatly in the basement or garage. Be sure your driveway and walk way are neatly cleared of snow. Have a nice winter wreath on the front door. Be sure your house and front walkway are well lit as it gets dark earlier and you may have showings after dark. If you have any pictures of your home’s exterior ask your Realtor to use them in the marketing of your home so buyers can see your home in spring or summer. Remember too, there are less houses on the market in winter and in my experience most people that are looking for homes in the colder months have to buy now.
Thanks, so much Lynn, sorry if it sounds like I need a therapist! Candace J. and her calm husband Tony

Dear Candace, No worries, I’ve got this! I’m not a therapist

Hi NC from C, Good for you for thinking ahead and congrats on the new job! Buying a house is one of the best investments you can make for your future and getting prepared well ahead of time is wise. When you apply for a preapproval for a mortgage or apply for the mortgage itself the lender will determine your debt to income ratio. You can figure this out yourself. Add up your monthly bills which may include monthly rent payment, utility bills, car payment, child support etc. Divide that total by your gross monthly income, which is your income before taxes. The result will be the debt to income ratio and will be in the form of a percentage. The lower your debt to income ratio is the less risky you are to lenders. If your debt is too high you can start planning how to correct it. Start by paying off one or both of your credit cards. You may be able to use some of the money you’ve saved to reduce that debt. Good for you that you’ve saved money! You’ll need
A
that money you’ve saved for a down payment and closing costs. Don’t buy a new car! One thing you don’t want to do is add any large debt. Wait until after you’ve purchased your new home to buy a new car, engagement ring (which could be more than the car!), or anything else on credit. Enjoy those months of being car payment free and use that money to pay off your credit cards. Here’s some great news for you. You’re a first-time home buyer so check with your lender to see if you can get a better rate and/or some closing cost discounts. You may also be eligible for a no money down loan, yup, NO MONEY DOWN! Check with your lender. Good luck!
