Jumbo Loans – They’re not Just Big, They’re Touching the whole Market
July 21st, 2009 categories: For Home Buyers, For Home Sellers, Mortgage/Finance
Columbus Houses that cost more than $730,000–the cap for conforming jumbo loans–can be extremely tough to buy, sell, or refinance these days, freezing the high-end Central Ohio market and holding down activity in lower-priced markets, real estate practitioners say or so I’ve read.
The slowdown results from lenders’ reluctance to offer mortgages above the amount Fannie [...]

FHA loans and Columbus Foreclosures – Can you buy one with the other?
June 24th, 2009 categories: For Home Buyers, For Home Sellers, Mortgage/Finance

Foreclosures, in Columbus or wherever, present a problem. They need work, the bank says the work must be done before they lend on the property, they don’t belong to the buyer and yet the bank [...]

New iPhone ap for real estate is very sweet
April 29th, 2009 categories: About Me?, For Home Buyers, For Home Sellers, Real Estate News
Today Zillow released their new iphone application. It is pretty doggone cool if nothing else. I still don’t much believe in the zestimates for most Columbus properties, but the ability to walk around a neighborhood and get a feel for which home sold for what–while you’re standing in front of them looking at them–it’s the [...]

Pushy Realtors? Fact or Fiction?
April 28th, 2009 categories: About Me?, For Home Buyers, For Home Sellers
I think it goes without saying that you’ll not find such a thing at Delicious Real Estate. I’ve heard of such a thing as a pushy Real Estate Agent. I hear a lot of stories from people I meet. Sometimes they begin like, “I read your blog all the time. I love it. When [...]

April 9th, 2009 categories: For Home Buyers, For Home Sellers, Real Estate News, Short North
Maybe they’d cry for some nice off white or bisque? All these wall colors/finishes/techniques were in one Short North Area Condo a buyer looked at recently. That’s in ADDITION to a few white walls.
I’m not really from the camp that says it has to be off white. I like some color, not [...]
