Paid Advertisement Article Home Loans Bring Would-Be Homeowners Closer to their Goal If you’re looking to buy a house, it’s unlikely that, in today’s economy, you’ll be able to pay in full up front. That’s why home loans exist – to aid aspiring homeowners in acquiring and financing the homes they’ve dreamed of – without bankrupting them in the process. Home loans can be acquired through banks and home loan companies. Either route you take, you’re entitled to personal service by a representative who will review your finances, credit report, and help you decide which is the best home loan solution for your needs. In order to gather all the information they need, the bank or loan company will re-appraise the market value of your house to determine the proper loan amount. You will then work together to go over the different loan options available and determine which is best for your personal situation. Different Home Loans for Different Folks There are two main types of home loans , each with its own advantages. Fixed-rate loans divide the amount to be repaid over a set number of years. “Fixed rate” means that no matter how the interest rate fluctuates over the years, the amount of payment will remain the same. If the interest rate dips, your mortgage consultant will help you refinance to take advantage of the lower rate. In contrast, adjustable rate mortgages (ARMs) are dependent on the fluctuation of the interest rate over time. When the rate is low, payments are low, but when interest rates are high, the payment increases also. ARMs are slightly easier to qualify for than fixed-rate loans, but they also carry more risks. When you are choosing a home loans company, take into consideration the additional “home loan origination fee” (usually 1% of the total amount borrow, so if you borrow $100,000, the fee is $100), as well as closing, settlement and appraisal fees. Most companies will allow you to “roll” these fees into your home loan, an excellent option that allows you to pay them over time if you don’t have the funds to pay up front. When you’re ready to move forward with a home loan, or if you’d just like to start exploring your options, submit the form at the top of this page to acquire your own mortgage consultant to help you get started with the mortgage process and explain which home loans might be best for you. ^ Paid Advertisement Article ^ Ad Information Forbes.com Wireless Reprints / Permissions Subscriber Services ©2004 Forbes.com™ All Rights Reserved Privacy Statement Terms, Conditions and Notice Search Engine Marketing by 360i, Inc.

How to Do a Tax-Deferred Exchange on Investment Property - eHow.com Clear Instructions on How To Do (just about) Everything Web eHow.com Home Finance & Business Center Taxes How to Do a Tax-Deferred Exchange on Investment Property Ordinarily, when you sell property for a profit and receive cash, the taxman is there to take his cut. A 1031 tax-deferred exchange on investment property allows you to roll over the gain from the sale of one investment property into another investment property without being taxed. (Note that this opportunity is available only on investment and income property - not on a personal residence.) Steps: 1. First, understand three basic rules: 1) The purchase price of the replacement property must be equal to or greater than the net sale price of the property you're relinquishing; 2)All cash or other proceeds received from the sale of the relinquished property must be used to acquire the replacement property; and 3) The properties must be of "like-kind," which means they must be the same type of property - must be, for example, property held for productive use in a trade or business or property held for investment. 2. Select an exchange facilitator to handle paperwork and to receive the funds from the proceeds of the sale. 3. Sell your investment property to a buyer; you must inform the buyer that you are doing a tax-deferred exchange. 4. Identify a replacement property within 45 days of the close of escrow or the date you transfer title of the investment property you relinquished. The address of the new property must be written down, signed by you and received by the intermediary or exchange facilitator within this 45-day period. (Failure to meet the identification requirements will make the sale of the relinquished property a taxable event.) 5. Acquire the identified replacement property within 180 days of the close of escrow or transfer of title of the investment property you relinquished. When you purchase this replacement property, you must make the seller aware that you are doing a tax-deferred exchange. Tips: When you are looking for a property to acquire, you may identify up to three properties of any value; one or more of these must be acquired. One property may be exchanged for several, or several properties may be exchanged for one. Unimproved real property held for investment qualifies for this type of exchange. Warnings: It's important to carefully plan the exchange with the assistance of an experienced and competent intermediary, preferably one who is completely familiar with the tax code in general as well as Section 1031. You, as the investor, may never receive or have access to proceeds from the sale of the relinquished property.
