Question by froghead: Thinking about building “Tiny Home” anyone know about this?
I am thinking of selling my 3 bedroom home that I own clear and free and building a 800 to 1000 sq ft free standing tiny home. and powering it with solar and wind power. I don’t need much more space (along with a shed that might be bigger than house)

Does anyone live in one of these or know about them so they can give me info
It would be more to drive down my living expenses than being green, but like the green results of doing this.

Would be able to do away with utility bills, would take less energy to heat/cool and would serve its purpose.

also thinking of setting up rain collection unit to do most non drinking/cooking applications. for gardening and washing stuff not involved in cooking supplying toilet water and such

good luck. it’s not a GREEN thing, it’s called minimalist. I’ll bet a 3000 square foot home built right would be greener if you wanted it too. Just throw everything out and use nothing, eat nothing, dispose of nothing, bread and water rules.

Question by advisor20: Has anyone dealt with a house that is a “short sale”?
I put a bid in on a house listed for short sale – it’s in pre foreclosure. Our bid is only k below asking price. It’s been a week and I have not gotten any response from the bid. This is going to be my second time dealing with a foreclosed home and it ending up going nowhere. I’m already approved for financing. It seems like every house I look at is in foreclosure

Best answer:

Answer by Lisa L
The company holding the mortgage has to agree to the short sale so that could be the hold up. Be sure you have an iron clad agreement from the company also. The attorney handling your closing needs to be in close contact with the mortgage company involved with the sale.

Answer by acermill
When dealing with a “We Buy Your Home” companies, you can expect to receive around 80% of market value. Such firms work well for those who must sell in a hurry, but you don’t get anywhere near the value you would obtain if you sold conventionally. The profit motive for these firms is to buy them below market value and then put them on the market themselves in hopes of obtaining full or close to full market value.

Question by nursegoodbodyandmind: I need to get rid of my home quick. Has anyone ever done business with one of those “We Buy Houses” companies?

WE have good credit and the payments are up to date, if that matters.
I’m living in a different state than the house I want to sell. It has been on the market for almost a year. I want to purchase a new home in the state where I’m living. I’m paying the bills and putting savings in the bank. This isn’t a credit issue. This is a geography issue.
The home appraised for K over what I owe last year.
This isn’t a situation where I MUST get rid of it. I just want some of my equity back so I can get a home in the state where my hus is working.
If they low-ball me, I’ll walk away from the deal.

I would assume that you would be making a mistake going through an outfit like that.

Here are some particularly good tips:

• Don’t fall for promises like “We’ll save your credit”; “We’ll buy your house ‘as is’”; or “We’ll get you a new mortgage with low monthly payments.”

• Don’t sign away ownership of your property (sometimes called a “quit claim deed”) to anyone without the advice of lawyer you trust. “When people get behind on their loan payments, they get a bit desperate, but the answer is not putting someone else on your title,” says Oakland real-estate attorney James Hand.

• Beware of any home sale contract where you aren’t formally released from liability for your mortgage. Also, make sure you know what rights you’re giving up and that you agree to giving them up.

Question by John V: Has anyone purchased and used any of these Real Estate Investment programs?
Has anyone purchased any of these ? ..much more importantly actually USED them. I am not the least bit interested in any responses from people that do not have DIRECT personal experience with these programs. I don’t want any uninformed opinions of these. Those would be meaningless and worthless.
Sometime ago I bought Carleton Sheets program and I had heard both good and bad, though I’m convinced that it is at least legitimate. I am just now going through it. I’ve also looked at Matt Gillogly’s “Business Building Secrets of Renegade Christian Investors” and Bill Vaughn’s “The Simple Man’s Guide to Real Estate”. The reviews that I’ve read of the last two are excellent. I’ve investigated and dismissed programs from about a dozen other Real Estate “Gurus” that were basically scams.
I want input (success or failures) on just these. Again, I want only actual experience from someone who has really put the concepts to work.. that have really put them completely to the test..
The first response was exactly what I said that I did NOT want. As I put in my question, such a type response is meaningless and worthless. Apparently he did not read my question completely. Incidentally and for his information, I have a Bachelors degree and 3 Professional Designations. Learning from other experts in any field is the fastest way of
getting to a higher level of success without having to waste time and doing things on a “trial and error” basis or method. That is what text books are for in “higher learning”! Thinking such as what was expressed in that response is totally flawed.. I certainly hope that the other responses will be more meaningful and valuable!!

Answer by BabiesDaddy
If you need these programs than you should not be investing in Real Estate anyway. If you went to school and have some common sense, you will know that all those programs are scams. Everybody has their own style and it is up to you to develope yours. Be an innovator not a follower of someone elses concepts. Good Luck!!
