How does the San Mateo County MCC program help first time home buyers save money?

July 28, 2008 · Dean Rizzi · 3 Comments

First of all, what is MCC anyway? MCC stands for Mortgage Credit Certificate. The MCC is a federal tax credit for eligible first-time homebuyers. It helps first time buyers by giving them an additional tax benefit in addition to the normal tax benefit from owning a home to begin with.

Here is how it works. Read more

How much do I offer?

July 16, 2008 · Shokoofeh Nowbakht · Comment here

Ok, you find a house and now like to make an offer, but how much? Don’t think just because it’s a short sale or REO that you can offer 20% or so lower than the asking price. Do your homework, study your market, and find out what the market value of the property is. Discuss it with your realtor. Generally, if the property has been on the market for months and specially if it hasn’t had a price reduction, you would have a stronger position to negotiate. Don’t be surprised to see multiple offers and overbidding on short sales and REOs in today’s market. Sometimes, the listing agents list the property at lower than the true market value to create activities and multiple offer situations. So, talk to your realtor and make a reasonable and realistic offer.

GOOD LUCK!
