Many Do Not Believe in the Covid-19 Vaccine

Despite the U.S. government stating that there is a vaccine to minimize the chances of death due to Covid-19, most people are in denial.  Many people think it is a trick to get some small technology into your body to control you and monitor you. They go as far as connecting their theory of an evil plot to implement 5 G technology. Some people have put out what they claim is proof that Bill Gates is involved, and he and others want to control the population of the world and so on and on. You wonder why there is so much mistrust? But it is not unwarranted. It is part of American history that the colonist gave free blankets and linen contaminated with smallpox to cause disfiguring scars, blindness, and death to the American Indians. Then there was Tuskegee experiment began in 1932, where they freely injected over 600 African Americans with syphilis, a contagious venereal disease with no known cure at the time. Some Republicans believe the Democrats want to use the COVID 19 scare to take

Electric Cars is Now a House Accessory

The improvement in battery technology is affecting every industry in the world, and the real estate industry is no exception. Though they are many accessories that rely on this new battery technology, we are only going to cover one sector, and that is cars as it now relates directly to real estate. Before the only relation of vehicles to real estate was some homes were made with a single garage. When you started to get into two, three, four, or more garages then you were heading towards luxury houses. As we progress into every New Year, the realization that the average house standard will require an electric charging station to charge these new battery-powered cars is inevitable. New house builders and old house renovators will be wise to start offering  electric charging stations  and  solar shingles  with new built. People who are into rehabbing old houses will also make their rehab more in demand by adding an electric charging station to charge these electric cars. Solar shingles ar

Solar Panels a Necessity

More and more homes are popping up with solar panels on their roofs. It seems to be the new fad, but it is not exactly. Some people are only getting wise to use the sun for more than light, warmth, vitamin D, and a great tan. The sun supplies free energy that solar panels can catch and redistribute it into electricity to power up their home. Today’s home demands electronics, electrical equipment, appliances, and power for electric cars. Those demands cause higher demand on the power grid of your region. In the United States, the government, both federally and locally, is trying to influence all homeowners to get solar panels installed on their homes by giving a tax credit to those who use solar panels' alternative energy. The power companies do not see solar panels as the competition, but as assistance in that, they will, in turn, buy your excess energy produced by your solar panels. It is a no-brainer to get solar panels when your home is all-electric, and you have an electric car

Pros of Buying a Newly Built Home

You have decided it is time to move out and live your dreams, and what better to bring one of your goals into existence than a newly built home. Buying a newly built home can be an ego booster and-or adds to a sense of accomplishment. Some people like to be the starter of new house history and being the first to live in a new house. Buying a home is a big thing, and buying a newly built home is even a more significant thing. With an existing home, you pretty much see what you are getting into, but you have to rely on your imagination, creativity, a skilled real estate buyer’s agent, and a reputable builder with a to-be-built home. In making your dream of a newly built home come into existence, you have to plan and make sure you have considered all things and prepared to deal with it all. Time is money in real estate, and if you do not do things promptly after you signed on the dotted line, you can lose money. In helping you to consider all things and to control your budget, it is alway

Sellers Get Top Dollar For House

You have decided that it is time to move on from the house you have lived in for many beautiful years. Now "parting is such sweet sorrow," as William Shakespeare would put it. It is now hard to cut ties with the house, and you would like to get someone that will appreciate the value you have put into it. After all, you have put your personality into making the home what it is. With your entire accolade, you feel you should get top dollar for your home. The problem with that thought usually arises when sellers become subjective regarding the listing price on the market for sale. When sellers are emotional in thinking about their house value, they can become irrational in determining a sale price for their home. It also becomes difficult for a professional real estate agent to advise them on how to change the negatives of their property in preparation to get top market value for their home. There is an old saying, "can't see the forest but for the tree." Often, a

Buying a Fixer-upper Without Fear

  You have found a home with good bones and think that it could turn into a masterpiece with your creativity. “But,”...though you see the potential, you are reluctant to get the property because you have never taken on the task of renovating a property before. You are concerned with how to get your imagination into actualization without costly mistakes.  You should not be intimidated by a good deal because of the renovation task. The task of renovating a home is not as difficult as one may think. The risk is minimized with the right professional by your side. The first professional you need is a real estate agent that knows about fixing up properties. The real estate agent will do a Comparative Market Analysis and show you data of similar homes that got renovated with their sold price. A real estate agent should give you ideas and weigh the feasibility of your plans before you write a purchase contract. The second is an excellent general contractor. A general contractor will listen to

Save by Using a Fixer-upper as Home

You bought a fixer-upper project with excellent possibilities aesthetically and financially if you can turn your dream into that eye-catching situation. Two critical factors to your success in flipping a distressed property into a gem are good contractors and time efficiency. Good contractors have Craftsmanship and love what they do. Time loss in your project is costly. Many contractors may have good intentions but may fall short of their time obligation to hurt your bottom line. Time in real estate is money, and the clocks seem to run fast when you are the one holding the financial obligation.  Generally, a home improvement project should not take over 140 days. The risk you face is that when you go beyond a deadline, and you have a loan, and you get charged interest per diem or month. You may need to move from your current place by a specific date; additional charges are applied. If you have to use rental equipment on a project and do not return it by a particular time, it incurs an
