     On Thursday, USA Today published a view of what many of this spring’s first-timers have encountered in their inaugural home-buying ventures. Our own Kissimmee trends don’t precisely match those tapped by their research—but the themes cited in the national press are familiar here, too.      Although the headline emphasized the difficulties those buying a home for the first time may encounter (“3 Challenges Facing First-Time Homebuyers This Spring”), elsewhere in the piece, some bright spots were acknowledged. For Kissimmee readers inclined toward a ‘glass-half-full’ point of view, they tend to balance out the familiar challenges.      Bright Spots: According to the Mortgage Bankers Association, affordability has advanced with the easing           of 30-year fixed mortgages to a national average of 4.42%. Inventory “has loosened up slightly.” This is a relative finding since the U.S. still lags in ...

      If this May will find you looking for a home to call your own, you won’t be alone—it’s a prime season for Kissimmee house-hunting. In case it’s been a while since your last go-round (or if this will be your first), it’s relevant to review some of the basics. That includes one of the most basic basics: if and/or when to enlist the services of one of Kissimmee’s buyer’s agents.      You might think that, with home prices having risen steadily for some time, prospective Kissimmee home buyers might prefer to go it alone as a cost-cutting maneuver. After all, the homes for sale are all right there online, aren’t they?      But that’s not the people’s choice. The latest (2018) statistics tell us that 87% of those who bought a home did so through a real estate agent or broker. The cost factor winds up tilting in the agent’s favor because, except in extremely rare cases, buyers do not pay a commission at all! It’s part of the Multiple Listin...

     When you are planning to sell your Kissimmee home, the latest interest rate gyrations can become a worrisome element in your planning. Last week’s news should provide a measure of anxiety relief.      Back a year or two ago, when almost all the credible financial voices were united in predicting that Kissimmee’s historically low mortgage interest rates would soon be moving back up into more familiar territory, the effect was to prod buyers to get busy. Kissimmee sellers took note, as well.      Everybody knew that the imminent rate rises could make all the difference between a doable monthly mortgage payment and a budget-breaker. Frequently cited were examples like the one pointing out the difference that a single point could make on a typical $350,000 mortgage payment: more than $200 a month. There was extra pressure on some home loan applicants whose incomes were deemed sufficient at the original rate: they might be ...

Although the title of her article was “What Will You Do with Your Investment Property?” marketing writer Lynn Pineda’s piece came down to a dissection of a simpler binary choice. It took on the Kissimmee real estate investor’s elemental decision: flip or rent? And rather than concentrating on the run-of-the-mill financial analysis you’d expect, it smartly recognized the other dimension that should enter into that choice: the investor’s personality. Most investors who buy Kissimmee homes do so with a strategy already in place. The purchase is usually propelled by the value proposition the property represents: a potential for profit that’s evident from the start. The attractive arithmetic may have been based on a fix-and-flip analysis, or on a traditional rental analysis. Especially for first-time investors, the ultimate success of the endeavor (and probably whether it becomes the first of many to follow) will probably also be determined by how well the temperament o...
