Current Real Estate and Mortgage Financing Status

By Nancy Woodward

Financing is becoming more of an effort these days. Lenders are scrutinizing all loans closely. All loans includes investor loans, as well as, homeowner loans. As an investor, I suggest you talk to your mortgage lender and test the waters.

Did you know that you can move some of your investments into an LLC which will remove them from your credit report? Since lenders penalize you for having more than ten properties, consider moving them into an LLC. You will find it easier to obtain financing.

In a time of declining values you must know if your investment is in an area considered declining values. You certainly would not want to purchase any property in these areas today. You can find a report – The House Price Index – at http://www.ofheo.gov

As normal, do your due diligence prior to investing in anything.
