Top 10 Places To Buy Abroad In 2011

Jan 26, 2011

Courtesy of Luxury Homes by VAPF According to the well-known ‘A Place in the Sun’ magazine, Spain has once again come top as the favourite British destination for buying a holiday home, ahead of neighbouring France, Portugal, Italy, Florida, Turkey and other Mediterranean locations. The results of the study carried out by the British publication, specialized in overseas properties, situate the Spanish coast as the most popular location for second homes, having carried out a worldwide research on the standards of living and the property options available in each country. Hundreds of the magazine’s readers and visitors to the exhibitions they organize have pointed out their reasons for purchasing their dream hideaway home in Spain and the survey also reveals the costs involved in buying and owning a house in this sunny country. The result is that Spain tops the chart of the best places to buy abroad in 2011, with all the right ingredients: a great transport network that makes travelling to and from Spain extremely easy, an extensive cultural offer, well-established infrastructure and, of course, the fundamentals, sun, sea and siesta!

Short Sales Likely To Drive The Marketplace

Jan 26, 2011

Courtesy of Robert Kenyon of Willis Allen Real Estate Although not great, certainly not painless and unlikely to improve dramatically, the path to closing on a property in a short sale has made strides and those sales are likely to lead the market in 2011. With short sale negotiators putting out their shingles in droves, it behooves those who are considering a sale or for those in position to buy to carefully study the options before making their choice regarding who will represent them during the process. Recently some banks have transitioned to an automatic, computer driven process, where-in no longer can one call to discuss where the file might be in the stack of things. E-mail transmissions become the source of information and they are curt and to the point. Either the sale is moving forward or it is not. The best short sale negotiators have a banking background, knowing who to call, even circumventing the computer-driven process and as importantly, knowing how and when to push, manage the deal and bring the process into a successful closing. Nearly to a person, Realtors who work with short sales will confirm that having the right short sale negotiator not only relieves them of the headaches involved with the process, but also adds great promise to the possibility that the deal will ultimately make its way through escrow with success.
