View Bristow Listings NewsFixed Rate Loans in Bristow
Advantages: As indicated earlier, predictability is the biggest incentive for choosing a fixed-rate loan for your Bristow real estate mortgage.
Disadvantages: Fixed rate loans usually come with higher interest than the start up interest rate on a fixed loan. Down payments for your Bristow on conventional, fixed-rate loans are usually higher than the down payment required for an ARM.
Bristow Real Estate Contract Options
Finally, the Exclusive Agency Listing allows an agent to list and market your Bristow real estate. The agent will earn a commission if he/she or any other agent sells the property but not if the homeowner finds his/her own buyer. Very few if any agents are willing to agree to spend time, money and know-how on promoting a home without the guarantee of a commission when the home sells.
Many people imagine that the agent who lists their home begins an immediate search for likely homebuyers for Bristow but this is not always the case. The real skill of a good listing agent is her/his ability to market your home to other agents. Usually as soon as your listing agent returns to the office, your home is entered into the MLS and is now available to hundreds, maybe thousands of other agents.
Building Bristow Home Equity
As a Bristow homeowner you have the right to pay more towards the principle loan amount each month. Let’s say your monthly payment is $700.00 a month and $100.00 a month is being applied to the principle. If you choose to pay $900.00 instead of $700.00, the $200.00 overage will be applied entirely to the principle. Thus, instead of gaining $1,200.00 a year in Bristow home equity, you gain $3,600.00.
The only factor being considered here is Home Equity. In individual cases it may be wiser to invest than to pre-pay your home loan. It also may be wiser to pay off high-interest, non-deductible loans before considering your Bristow home equity building options. Your financial advisor is the one to consult for these matters. If you would like up-to-the-minute information about Bristow home appreciation values in your area, please call or E-mail me today.
