In Charlotte, North Carolina the Tax Credit is Great for Homeowners Looking to Downsize

January 22, 2010 By Leave a Comment

When the First Time Home Buyer Tax credit was extended and expanded most people thought the expansion was only for home owners who wanted to move up, those who wished to buy a bigger, more expensive home.  In fact, the expansion simply includes those who have owned a primary residence and lived in it for at least five years consecutive years out of the last eight years.  If current home owners in Charlotte, NC want to downsize they can use the tax credit toward their new home, regardless of whether it costs less than the home that they are selling, regardless of whether it is a smaller home than the one that they are selling.

It is an anomaly that everyone assumes the tax credit is only for purchasing bigger and better.  Many people, especially those whose children have grown and left the nest, want to downsize.  After-all, who doesn’t want to enjoy Charlotte to the fullest and make life simpler these days?

If you have been considering selling your home in Cotswold, Myers Park or any of the amazing Charlotte neighborhoods and moving into a smaller space, consider doing so before the tax credit expires.  Place your new Charlotte home under contract by April 30th and close by June 30th and you could have a few extra dollars in your pocket in 2010.

Charlotte North Carolina Finds “in-fill” Construction a Rising Trend for Homes in Freedom Park

January 12, 2010 By Leave a Comment

Homes in Myers Park  and Dilworth are some of the most exclusive in the Charlotte real estate market with broad ranging home styles. With the exciting events, live entertainment and exhibits as part of the increasingly popular Festival in the Park at Freedom Park, visitors see many new homes exploding in the park’s neighborhood.

Additionally, with two of the best hospitals serving homes near Freedom Park and the neighborhoods of Myers Park, Dilworth and more, Presbyterian Hospital or Carolina’s Medical Center provide a much sought-after benefit of the community.

Examine the Closets in Your Charlotte Home to Add Value to Sell

January 5, 2010 By Leave a Comment

When considering selling Charlotte real estate the question surfaces, what can I do to improve my home and make it more appealing to a prospective buyer? Looking at your closets might be the answer, particularly if you own a quaint English Tudor in Myers Park or homes in Foxcroft. Closets may be the small improvement your home needs when getting ready to sell. Newer homes tend to have bigger closets and they aren’t just dark spaces with doors any more. Today’s closets, thanks to companies like California Closets and other offshoots, are filled with light and organized spaces like drawers, shelves, shoe racks and hanging bars that hang at different heights to accommodate different articles of clothing. Some closets come across as small rooms.

Regardless of whether you have a new home, like those in the Cotswold neighborhood or an older, remodeled home of the Charlotte, NC real estate market, if your closets aren’t organized they can be. Closets can be do-it-yourself projects or created by a contractor or a closet company. Remodeling closets can be an inexpensive re-model that can add value to the sale of your home near Freedom Park or home in Dilworth without breaking the bank.

Charlotte, NC Real Estate, Where are We?

December 25, 2009 By Leave a Comment

When it comes to real estate the general sentiment appears to be that of putting 2009 in the past and looking forward to a brighter 2010.  Looking at where we are and where we are headed as far as communities of south Charlotte goes will take us from the present into the future.  Currently home values are affordable nationally, because prices are low and interest rates are low.  Both of these low levels add up to the fact that it is a great time to be a buyer when it comes to Charlotte, NC real estate.

Interest rates have been hovering at 5% or lower for the better part of the past year, a trend that cannot be expected to continue.  As the market stabilizes more and the economy gets better, interest rates will rise.  While home prices still may drop in many areas of the country, they will not drop much more.  Areas that are less affected by foreclosures, short sales and REO properties are likely to level out faster than other areas due to the lack of distressed sales in their inventories.  A rise in interest rates may bring real estate prices down to sell but the days of 20% and 30% decreases appear to be unlikely.

In a nutshell now is a great time to buy if you have been waiting for the right time to plunge into the market whether you are considering homes for sale in Myers Park, Foxcroft, Cotswold, Dilworth or any of the wonderful neighborhoods of Charlotte. Take advantage of low interest rates while they are here and the extended home buyer tax credit while it’s still available.  It is a buyer’s market now, it won’t be forever.

An interesting analysis of the real estate conditions and a forecast of 2010 by CNN Money are available.
