Thinking About Selling Your Home Yourself?
Welcome > For Sellers > Thinking About Selling Your Home Yourself? ...

There's More to Selling Your Home Than a "For Sale" Sign In Your Front Yard: Beware. 

Even if a simple sign in your yard did produce a buyer knocking on your door, how will you handle the following questions: 

"How does your home compare to others like it in the Nutley, Belleville and Bloomfield area?" 

"How did you determine the fair market value of this property?" 

"What about financing? Can you help?" 

"If I make an offer, who will draw up the paperwork?" 

"Why aren't you using a real estate agent? Is there something wrong with the property?" 

"Since you aren't using a real estate agent, we can take their fee right off the top, right?" 

Selling your home is one of the most important financial transactions you will make in your life. Don't take risks. Selling your home is nothing like selling a car. Every home is different, and every homebuyer wants to offer you as little as possible. How do you determine the real market value? 

Almost all homes are sold using a real estate agent. As real estate professionals, it is our job to help you negotiate with all those buyers who want something for nothing. Not to mention preparing your home for sale, marketing it locally in the Nutley, Belleville and Bloomfield area and even nationally, and guiding you through the complex paperwork and pitfalls of escrow and closing. Make sure you are really ready to handle all of that before pounding that sign into your front yard. Errors can be extremely costly. 

Remember: Buyers want to offer you as close to nothing as possible! While that "For Sale By Owner" sign might sound like a good idea, it usually means a different thing to buyers: "Try to steal this one." 

If you must sell your own home, at least let us give you a sense of its true market value. Tell us a bit about your home, and We'll do a quick Comparative Market Analysis and let you know what we feel it is worth. We'll also describe, as experienced, Nutley, Belleville and Bloomfield area real estate agents, how we would market your property. This is free, with no strings attached. 

Don't price your home by yourself! It's our job to analyze the Nutley, Belleville and Bloomfield area market and determine the true value of your property. It's FREE and without obligation...

Real Estate Tips
Foreclosures >4. Foreclosure Alternatives

There are several alternatives for a homeowner to consider when foreclosure is looming. Before proceeding, a homeowner must first choose whether or not he or she wants to keep his or her home.

If a homeowner wants to keep their home:

  • Repayment plan: The homeowner establishes a payment schedule with the lender to pay the delinquent amount.
  • Special forbearance plan: The homeowner requests a temporary reduction or payment suspension that will be increased after a set specific period of to repay the delinquent amount.
  • Modifying the mortgage: The homeowner can refinance the debt and/or extend the term of the loan.
  • HUD partial claim: If the homeowner has a loan insured by the Federal Housing Administration the lender can get a one time payment from the FHA-Insurance Fund to get the mortgage payments up to date.
  • Refinance: The homeowner can negotiate a new loan with a different interest rate in order to make smaller payments.
  • All options listed are subject to approval of the lender.

If a homeowner does not want to keep their home:

  • Sell the house: Depending on the situation, the homeowner may be able to sell the house for more than is owed to the lender.
  • Assumption: The homeowner turns over possession of the house to another person who then assumes the responsibility of the payments.
  • Short sale: The lender and the homeowner come to an agreement to sell the home at a loss in order to get the homeowner out.
  • Pre-foreclosure sale: The homeowner can sell the home and use the proceeds to settle the mortgage debt, even if the proceeds are less than the amount owed.
  • Deed in Lieu of Foreclosure: The homeowner surrenders the property to the lender without further damage to his or her credit.
