How One Local Builder is Improving South Tampa October 20, 2011
By Kortney Gentry

In an effort to improve South Tampa homes, Tampa Realtor, BG Holmberg has teamed up with Martin Ryan, a 3rd generation spec builder of almost 30 years and founder of M. Ryan Homes. These two have known each other for nearly 7 years now, however, 2 years ago, they came up with a concept and started a plan that would keep growing families in the area they love.

The concept:

* All homes will be in the Plant High School district but will vary in elementary schools, giving families more options for younger children
* Homes will be located in various areas of central South Tampa
* The average price point varies from the high $400s to $600K
* 4 Bedroom minimum in each home
* Lot size will vary but will range from 50′ x 80′ to 80′ x 130′
* All are built following several consumer expectations: hardwood, granite, beautiful cabinetry, stainless steel appliances & double paned windows for energy efficiency. Many of the homes also feature tankless gas water heaters & gas stoves to reduce the use of electricity.
* While the homes all lean towards more of a traditional/mission style combination with a square shape & clean lines, there will be 5-6 different floor plans

The past two years….

BG Holmberg led Ryan to his first lot purchase in September of 2009 and the duo have since collaborated on 17 more lot purchases, 13 home completions (12 of which have already sold) and 3 homes are currently under construction. Since these are all built to specifications to remain in the realm of the original concept, very few changes are made by the buyers and the homes are not typically listed until near completion. That doesn’t mean you should wait until the last minute if you are looking to purchase one of these beauties; 10 out of the 12 that have sold were under contract before the home was even move-in ready.

What should you be looking for in the future?

Since Ryan oversees all of his projects on his own, he works on a maximum of 5 homes at a time, all of which are exclusively marketed by BG Holmberg via Smith & Associates Real Estate. The two plan on knocking out (or rather, building up) 8-10 homes per year with an undecided end point or until South Tampa meets all of their specifications.

If you are interested in one of these South Tampa homes, contact BG Holmberg to arrange a meeting.

What do you look for when it comes to purchasing a new home? Do their specs meet your requirements?

Defective Title of Foreclosed Properties October 18, 2011
By Angi Comas

The title problems resulting from the mass volume of foreclosure lawsuits in the courts is becoming a major problem in this country with a direct effect on the housing market now and for many years to come. Imagine the following scenario:

The bank filed a foreclosure suit, won, took title, and sold the property to an independent third party. Now imagine that you are the third party purchaser – you bought a home from a bank that obtained title via foreclosure. You move into and live in the house you purchased from the bank at a foreclosure auction. Then suddenly, the original homeowner, who owned the property before the bank foreclosed, has convinced a court that she still owns the property. Incredibly, in light of the bank’s failure to correctly prosecute the foreclosure lawsuit, the homeowner is right – she still owns the house.

The problem is created through a break in the chain of mortgage ownership. Until the 1980’s, most mortgages were loans between the homeowner and a bank, who lent the money directly. More recently, the mortgage financing system transformed into an international system of securitization, with mortgage lenders packaging their loans into securities, bought and sold by investors like stocks. These transactions even split individual mortgages into sections, where each loan could have parts owned by different investment banks.

The transfer of ownership in these mortgage backed securities (MBS) was done with contracts on the balance sheets of Wall Street investment banks, such as Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs. The company who originally appeared to make the loan was normally a retail lending company such as Countrywide or Lending Tree, who typically acted as a sales company, and sometimes remained contracted to service the loan.

In the event that the loan goes into foreclosure at a later date, the then-current owner of the loan files the foreclosure and sells the property to a new owner, often at auction. The land records would show a deed of transfer from the investment bank to the new owner. This creates a break in the chain of ownership of the mortgage rights. In many cases, the transfer of ownership of the mortgage loan has gone from the original lender, through several owners, and then to the foreclosing bank, none of which is recorded on the property title history. Technically, the foreclosing bank has no recorded title rights to foreclose in the first place.

MERS announced it changed its procedures to require that an assignment of mortgage be filed prior to the start of any foreclosure suit. Typically, a mortgage is recorded in the public records with MERS as nominee for ABC Corporation. Invariably, when the foreclosure lawsuit is filed, it is not filed in the name of ABC Corporation it is filed in the name of Bank of America, JP Morgan Chase or some securitized trust – an entity with no relationship to ABC Corporation.

In most foreclosure cases, banks’ lawyers argue the plaintiff has standing if it is the “holder” of the Note (i.e. if it possesses the original note with a special endorsement in blank.) Many judges accept this position, no questions asked and thus, an assignment of mortgage is often viewed as irrelevant and superfluous.

Even if Bank of America, JP Morgan Chase, or the securitized trust has standing without an Assignment of Mortgage in the public record, ABC Corporation is still the mortgage holder of record. This means that even if Bank of America, JP Morgan, or whoever prevails in the foreclosure is the high bidder at the auction, acquires title, and sells the property to a third party, ABC Corporation is still the mortgage holder of record. What does that mean? Essentially, the entire foreclosure case was like a wild deed – it took place, but ABC Corporation can still institute a foreclosure lawsuit in its own name, as it would have priority over the bona fide purchaser who acquired title from the bank.

If ABC Corporation is the mortgage holder of record, and it is not named as a party in the mortgage foreclosure suit, and there is no Assignment of Mortgage, then the mortgage in favor of ABC Corporation still exists, even after the foreclosure, even after the auction, and even after the sale to the third party. The foreclosure happened, but as far as ABC Corporation is concerned, the foreclosure is irrelevant – it still has the mortgage.

To sum it all up, when purchasing your next Tampa home, especially in the case of foreclosure, it is very important to seek the advice of a real estate attorney and if possible, purchase title insurance when you purchase a property.

Mortgage Minute: What’s my home worth? October 13, 2011
By Amy Seeks

After speaking with one of our Tampa New Penn Financial reps, Bobbie Nader (pictured), about the current mortgage market and frequently asked questions, she filled us in on some amazingly helpful information…

With rates still at their all time low, many clients are interested in refinancing their home, or purchasing a home. The question of what their home is worth comes up almost immediately. It usually becomes a long conversation. Although, I am not an appraiser, I do give a few suggestions to my clients if they are concerned with value:

1) If you are refinancing it may be a good idea to contact your Realtor that assisted you when you purchased the home. Your agent can provide you with a current updated market analysis.
2) If you are purchasing a home your lender will require an appraisal, should there be a concern with a value up front, I also suggest having the seller pay for an initial appraisal. Your lender will not be able to use the same appraisal, however your agents can provide this to the lenders appraiser so they have additional information to consider.
3) Also keep in mind if you are going to your local tax authority website, the market value that is reflected on that site typically is not a true market value of the property.

The best way to go about refinancing or purchasing is to utilize your local Realtors when you are inquiring about the value of your current Tampa home or a new home. We are also here as a lender to assist you with qualifying and determining the perfect and most comfortable financing options available to you.

Have you ever found yourself debating refinancing? What are some of the questions you would like to see answered by our Mortgage Team?

Wonder Women Wear Stilettos: Introducing Smith Title September 20, 2011
By Kortney Gentry

When you think about a Title company, what is the first thing that comes to mind? For me, it is fabulously dressed, beautiful ladies with the best shoes in town. Oh yeah, and how could I forget… Lightning fast closings. Real Talk.

While these ladies may be some of the most fabulous in Tampa Bay, they mean business (with frequent side orders of fun, of course). The Smith & Associates Title, Inc. is an attorney-operated, full service company dedicated to providing exceptional real estate closings to sellers and purchasers throughout the state of Florida.

According to President, Angie Comas, “Our goal is to ensure that the real estate transaction proceeds flawlessly from opening to closing. This is accomplished by harmonizing our technology with traditional, time tested processing methods. In addition to our highly knowledgeable staff, we offer a level of exceptional customer services that the Smith & Associates customer has come to expect.”

Let’s meet the Smith Title girls that will be closing your next Tampa home:

Angi Comas, President
Angi Comas immigrated from Vietnam and landed directly in South Tampa, where she has resided since 1982. Angi is almost a “native Tampanian” in that she attended primary schools throughout South Tampa and college at the University of South Florida. After spending three years in law school at Florida State University, she longed to come back to her South Tampa home. Although Tallahassee is a charming city, she missed driving on Bayshore Boulevard and walking around in Hyde Park Village. In 2009, Angi Comas joined Smith & Associates Title. If Angi is not in the office, you can find her in her closet – organizing it.

Julie Simmons, Closer
Julie (or Ms. Simmons, as she occasionally likes to be called) relocated to the Tampa Bay area in 2002 from her home-town of Pensacola, to begin her career in the field of title insurance. Julie now calls St. Petersburg home (blocks away from our Beach Drive location). Around the office, Julie Simmons can spotted wearing a cardigan sweater and a Smith & Associates name tag – the two most important elements of her signature look. In addition to her passion for title insurance, Ms. Simmons enjoys running, kayaking, ballroom dancing and spending time with her beloved eight year old boxer, Dirce.

Aureann Whalen, Closer
At the age of fourteen, Aureann began her title insurance career by making microfilm copies for her father, a title insurance examiner, during the summer break. Aureann’s mother is a title insurance marketing representative and so, Aureann was destined to be in the title insurance industry. In addition to her extensive experience as a closer in South Florida and in the greater Tampa Bay area, she closed many of the sales transactions for Grand Key in South Tampa. Aureann speaks fluent Spanish and has a penchant for all things that are sparkly – just like her personality. When she is not working on closings for all of our agents, Aureann likes to play golf and go to the beach.

Sara Houze, Post- Closer
Sara Houze is a post closer at Smith & Associates Title. Although her official duties are to handle the files after the closing, Sara is also our technology expert. Furthermore, she inspires all of us in the office with her environmental consciousness. In our efforts to become a more “green” company, Sara has taught us that almost everything can be recycled, including packaging materials, electronics and even shoes. One of Sara’s favorite pastimes is extreme-couponing – it is amazing what she can do with $100!

Whether you are looking for beautiful ladies, massive amounts of coupons, fashion tips or the most efficient closing of your life, Smith Title is who you need on your side. Wonder women really do rock stilettos!

Have you recently purchased a Tampa, St Pete or Belleair home? What kind of experience did you have with the Title company?

Designer Thursday: Making Small Space Living Fabulous! September 15, 2011
By Kortney Gentry

When looking for a new home for sale in St. Pete, the option of small space living is often pushed to the back burner. Despite popular belief, it doesn’t have to be a downside to your new home! You just have to use your imagination & common sense, maximizing the use of the space. Work with it rather than trying to force it to work for you.

After an intense pondering session, I decided on 5 tips to maximizing small spaces. Here goes nothing:

Be flexible. Don’t define every room to a specific purpose, give purpose to every room!
Be functional. Just because it is called a “walk-in closet”, doesn’t men that’s all its good for. Make use of every corner and bare walls by adding an art studio or office.
Scale down. Why have a family room AND a sitting room (that no one actually sits in) with TVs in both? Designate one area for congregating, TV watching and video game playing. This will maximize family time as well!
Divide it up. Maximize large rooms by dividing them into sections for designated purposes. Use 3-fold room dividers or fancy curtains to really give it a “room-y” feel. (vintage room divider found on Amazon pictured right)
Bring it outside. If you have a porch, patio or yard, ad a grill, tables, tents and out door games. You now have the perfect place to entertain!

Still not convinced that small space living is fabulous living? Need an incentive to decorate a small space? A website titled Apartment Therapy actually hosts an annual “Small/Cool” Contest (yes, that is the name) for homes under 1,000 SqFt. The categories are (absolutely adorable) “Teeny-Tiny”, “Tiny”, “Little”, “Small” and “International”. Thousands of entries are received and there is one Grand Prize winner as well as one finalist picked per category.

This year’s winner was an amazing 460 SQFT, well lit apartment in Brooklyn (pictured thanks to www.apartmenttherapy.com). This teeny space has been completely maximized, allowing for a section for a bedroom (top left), living room (left), office, kitchen (bottom right) and bathroom. I am in love!

According to the contest rules “The home can be designed by a professional, weekend hobbyist or design enthusiast” so everyone is invited to participate & the prizes are pretty swell! Check them out for even more ideas on how to maximize your small space.

Whether you opt for small space living out of necessity or desire, there are so many ways to maximize the area and make it just as fabulous as an over-sized mansion! Not to mention how green you can be, reducing your carbon footprint by using less emissions to keep a small space functioning.

How have you maximized space in your Tampa Bay home? Do you have any small space decorating tips?

iPhone Apps vs The World of Real Estate July 22, 2011
By Kortney Gentry

It seems these days, without your app’d out (we’re talking applications, not Apple, but I can see where you could get confused) iPhone, iPad and iPod, your life (or should I say “iLife”) would be at a stand still. When it comes to Real Estate, these small devices are playing a HUGE role. Whether you need help keeping track of your buyer’s requirements, finding the closest coffee shop to your new St. Petersburg listing or informing a family of registered sex offenders (or lack there of) in the area, there are apps for you!

After some intense searching (& input from a few fabulous St. Pete Realtors), we came up with a list of 11 apps (because I couldn’t stop at just 10) that may be helpful in the busy (and ever so successful) life of an iAgent.

Kurio: Think Nationwide MLS without having to find a computer. Use the GPS Technology to find nearby houses, send out branded flyers and quickly share listing details right from your phone. The great thing is, it isn’t only for iDevices. Agents can register & sign into Kurio from any web-enabled mobile device. (FREE! Visit Kurio.mobi on your device)

AroundMe: When a buyer wants to know exactly how far from their potential new home they need to trek for a iced quad venti soy latte and a movie, you will want to have this app handy. Using that convenient GPS technology again, search the 10 categories for businesses closest to you, map them out and email directions within a matter of minutes. This app is available for both iPhone & Android devices. (FREE! Visit www.aroundmeapp.com)

MagicPlan: Carrying around a yardstick and sketching out floor plans are officially a thing of the past if you are equipped with the iPhone 4. To make a long story short, using the phone’s fancy gyroscope technology, you are able to spin around a room to measure, draw and publish a JPEG or PDF interactive floorplan faster than you can say “what happened to my measuring tape?!” On top of it all, the details you can add are icing on the cake- doors, sinks, refridgerators, the whole 9. (FREE! Purchase through the iTunes store)

Tour Narrator: Keep track of your listings and type or record showing notes to share with your seller in one little application. All notes and photos can be easily formatted to a PDF for posting or distribution. ($1.99 Purchase through the iTunes store)

Dictionary of Real Estate Terms: New to Real Estate or want to stay brushed up on all the tricky terms? Scroll through in alphabetical order to quiz yourself on what you know or search for that word that has you stumped. You can also book mark things you tend to forget, send them in an email or post them to Twitter all from the same app! ($1.99 Purchase through the iTunes store)

Mortgage Calculator: This application was created by Homes.com and has 4 different calculators in one: Buy or Rent, Debt to Income, Monthly Payment, & Refinance Calculator. This could come in handy with non-pre-approved clients sitting on the fence with buying or renting as well as buyers trying to figure out what price range is right for their budget. A few screen taps & the entry of some numbers can save hours of unnecessary showings and potential let downs. (FREE! Purchase through the iTunes store)

My Realty Tool: Keeping track of listings, leads and lockbox codes has never been so straightforward. The best part of the app is the simplicity of the lay-out: There are 3 categories & you can enter a few lines of information, and everything you need is at your fingertips. If only life was this easy! (FREE! Purchase through the iTunes store)

Property Evaluator: Whether you are working with an investor or sending performance projections to clients, this app will make you look like the pro that you are. Gain client trust by quickly calculating and tracking monthly and annual expense vs revenue reports, taking into consideration every detail- even inflation! If their praise & appreciation doesn’t cause a little inflation to that head of yours, I’m not sure what will. But regardless, you’re allowed to pat yourself on the back sometimes! ($1.99 Purchase through the iTunes store)

Offender Locator: With this app, you can show potential buyers exactly how safe their future neighborhood is by using the GPS tool or simply entering their address. This app is in the Top 5 free apps in the US & has been featured on both CNN and NBC. It is a quick and easy solution to new families curious about local crime. (FREE! Purchase through the iTunes store)

Foreclosure Search: Whether you have buyers and investors inquiring about foreclosed properties or are looking to gain some new bank-owned listings, this app by USHUD.com can be of assistance. Search Nationwide for bank or government owned properties and inquire about the listing (by phone or email) with the tap of a screen. (FREE! Purchase through the iTunes store)

Idea Sketch: Sellers rightfully want to know why they should choose Smith & Associates Real Estate to list their home. This app allows you to plan for Open Houses or lay out selling strategies in easy to use mind maps, concept maps or flow charts. Whether you choose to save them as photos to send to your seller or share them on facebook, it is a quick and simple way to sketch out a master plan of action…now you just need the app that keeps the plan in action. (FREE! Purchase through the iTunes store)

Well, that’s my list for now- I apologize if these applications consume your once paper and pencil filled life. If you want nothing to do with the iPhone, please disregard everything you’ve just read. However, if you are an Apple product lover like myself, what Real Estate relevant apps are you currently using? Have you tried any of these 11? What did you think?

The Time To Buy Tampa Real Estate Is Now! February 4, 2011
By Susie Timmerman

For prospective buyers looking at Tampa real estate who are still “on the fence”, here is something to think about. With interest rates slowly rising, your cost of purchasing a home over the long haul is also rising – if your thought process is to wait until the Tampa real estate market has dropped further, you should consider when interest rates increase over a point from the current rates – and what this will cost compared to today’s interest rates in your monthly payments –this can amount to a substantial amount over several years which adds to the cost of the home.

So – if you are focused on the purchase price and hoping to see the price reduced over the next six months, you should consider the actual COST of this purchase due to the rising interest rates. Tampa real estate has never been the bargain that it is today – the purchase price combined with historic low interest rates make it a prime time to purchase. This scenario will not likely repeat itself in your lifetime. It is time to get “off the fence” and start looking for your piece of the Tampa real estate market!!

For a comparable scenario showing the difference in monthly payment between current interest rates and projected interest rates, please contact Susie Timmerman, Sr. Mortgage Consultant for FBC Mortgage LLC at stimmerman@fbchomeloans.com, or by calling her office direct at 813.200.8322. You can also apply online at www.fbchomeloanstampa.com. FBC Mortgage LLC is a full service Direct Mortgage Lender offering expertise in every area of residential lending. I look forward to working with you to provide the mortgage product to enable you to become a proud homeowner of Tampa real estate!!
