For example sake, say a person has ,000 to either:
1) pay off a ,000 balance on a 6% credit card
or
2) pay ,000 down on a 7% variable rate 2nd mortgage with a ,000 balance.

i’m having my condo appraised for a home equity loan and there is a realtor (not affiliated with the bank) that said she will be taking pictures of the inside of my condo. it seems a strange that she can’t just estimate the value of the home by looking at it… and i’m a little suspect about her taking pictures of my stuff.(i don’t want her to have pictures of what is in my home) is it absolutely necessary for a home appraisal??
I was told by my real estate agent that if I did a short sale or foreclosure on my home in Arizona, that both the first mortgage and Home Equity Line of Credit (taken out 9 months after home purchase) would both be relinquished in a short sale or foreclosure. Because the house had dropped significantly in value and half the lots were vacant from owners doing the same thing, I decided to proceed with the short sale. It wasn’t approved and went into foreclosure. Now the bank is pursuing judgment against me to garnish my wages. Unfortunately, I can’t afford to retain an attorney. Is this a case I can win, even if I represent myself in a civil suit against this realtor? I also have email documentation asking him specifically how both loans would be treated. He responded with "Don’t worry, I have it!" I also have a witness to him telling me this verbally. According to the anti-deficiency laws, the second loan is not forgiven because it’s Non-Purchase Money, is this correct? Also, I’m wondering if I have a strong enough case to pursue this in civil court, representing myself.
We’ve lived in our home over 2 years. It was a new construction home when we bought it. We would like to move closer to the city but don’t have much equity in the home yet so having a realtor may cost too much out of pocket, especially if we will need to turn around and buy again. We have it listed on a local FSBO site but it’s back in a quiet subdivision with little traffic so how else can we advertise w/o breaking the bank?

My husband and I are purchasing a HUD home and we are very excited! The only downside is that my realtor doesnt seem to be too familiar with the whole HUD system and it makes me a little nervous. I only say this because she often contradicts herself. And our last attempt to purchase a HUD she failed to inform us that if we bid above the appraisel that we have to bring the difference to the table, not include it in the loan. (We have a contract with her for two months and are trying to beat the 1st time homebuyer credit cut off in Nov.) Anyway, we found an even better deal this time and won the bid, we went slightly over, but we can bring it to the table and will be moving in with over K in equity. However, I have a concern. As with most HUD homes this one needs a few repairs. It was built in 2006 and is beautiful, however, whoever had it last must have had at least 3 large dogs. Needless to say ALL the carpet has to be ripped out and replaced. Other than that the house is move-in-ready. So heres the thing that gets me. My lender said that he needs to get the house re-appraised before the closing. He called us and was happy to let us know that the house appraised for about k more than what we are purchasing it for, and that we may be able to roll the closing cost into the loan. This made my husband and I very excited because then we could use all the money that we saved up to fix the house up better than we had initialy planned. However, my realtor informed us that we would not be able to do this. Why? Everytime we ask her to explain why were just left more confussed. Neither one of us a real estate specialist, but we do have college degrees. Were just so confused. Our lender says one thing, out realtor says another.We have enough saved up to close and do the repairs, but we would like to have better upgrades if we can.We are getting a FHA loan, Northeast Houston area. Anyone know this business? Thanks!
We owe on our 1st mortgage is ,000 at 6.25%, and our HELOC is 5,000 at 8.19%. Fixed. The estimated value of the house is between 0,000. to 0,000. I would like to combine and lower my interest rate, but if that is not possible, how can I lower my HELOC. I would at least like to lower my 0.00 interest on the HELOC. What are my options if any? Thanks!
My fiance and I have found the exact home in KY we want to buy: on two acres surrounded by state forest and only twenty minutes from downtown! All this for less than 0,000. The problem? The home definitely needs some cosmetic work. And it’s tiny. We are first time home buyers and have no equity. Is there any way we can buy this home and get say ,000 in home improvement loans? We’ve been approved for almost 0,000 for a home loan.
Yes, I realize it’s not a good idea to buy a house for more than you can afford, hence the housing situation we are in now. The house is ,000 and we want to take a separate home improvement loan for ,000. We both have very good jobs and are more than capable of making these payments. What I want to know is if there is any possible way to get the ,000 for home improvement. Our realtor doesn’t know and our loan officer doesn’t think so.

I am in the USAF and have orders to Italy in the fall and NEED to move my family soon. I cannot afford a realtor… I need to sell for a certain amount to pay off the equity loans.
