2 8% Directly from the Builder Where did buyers find the home they purchased? 5% Other 87% Worked with a REALTOR® 42% Began their search online and then called a REALTOR® * Information taken from the 2015 NAR Profile of Buyers and Sellers

3 There are a lot of websites designed to attract consumers that are searching for a home. Using listing data is a way that businesses that are driven by the sale of new homes can capture new customers. These websites have no motivation to ensure their data is up to date!

Keller Williams Invests 1.5 Million Dollars per Month in our eEDGE Business Solutions Our award winning “App” connects consumers directly to the MLS for the most up to date information and a Realtor that will provide additional accurate information.

Special Considerations when buying a home in Florida Property Taxes In 1992 Florida voters modified the Florida constitution to cap the increase in a homesteaded property’s assessment to 3% or the annual increase in the Consumer Price Index, whichever is less. That amendment, known as Amendment 10 also provides for the homesteaded property’s market value becoming its assessed value upon the property’s deed transfer. A change of ownership triggers reassessment of the property to market value. Because of Amendment 10, some home purchasers are liable for substantially higher property taxes than the previous owner of the home. Homeowners Insurance and Flood Insurance Any property that has a mortgage is required to obtain insurance. (It is also wise for homeowners who pay cash for a home) Florida has several increased risks for insurance companies which include: hurricanes sink holes and flooding. It may be necessary to allot more of your housing budget toward insurance than in other states, so it is important to include this figure in your monthly payment calculations. Community Development District or CDD These are special taxing districts (usually large master planned communities) that impose special taxes and assessments to pay for the construction, operation, and maintenance costs of certain public facilities of the district. These taxes and assessments are in addition to county and all other taxes and assessments provided by law. These fees are paid in advance, so you will reimburse the seller a per diem rate at closing based on the closing date. Deed Restrictions Certain neighborhoods and communities have deed restrictions that may affect your use of the property. If the property is affected by deed restrictions, you should consult with an attorney to determine the nature of the restrictions and how they will impact your use of the property prior to entering into a contract. School Districts Schools are administered by the county; therefore, school boundaries are subject to change. If this information is important to you, contact the local school board directly to verify the correct school boundaries for the particular property prior to entering a contract. There is no guarantee of continued assignment under the current system.

Why 89% of Buyers use a Realtor Multiple Listing Service (MLS) Properties As a member of the Multiple Listing Service, a Realtor ® can show you any property, even from other real estate companies. Brokers that belong to the MLS have signed an agreement that they will offer compensation to other participating members. If you should see a property on the internet, ad in the paper, or a sign in a yard, when you contact your Realtor ® they will research the property and make an appointment to show it to you. Remember, the listing agent agreed to be an advocate for the SELLER when they signed the listing agreement. For Sale by Owner Many times a homeowner will work with an agent, even though the home is not listed with a real estate broker. In order for you to take advantage of all of the services offered by a Realtor ®, it is necessary for them to introduce the buyer to the property. If you want to see a home offered by the owner and want the advantages of a professional negotiator and other services, please do not contact an owner directly. Sellers marketing their home on their own often compensate Realtors ® that represent buyers, they are simply trying to save on the marketing side of the commission. Builder’s Homes Most builders are more than willing to work with agents who accompany the buyer to the property on the initial visit. By working through a Realtor ® with builders, you get all the services offered by your Realtor ® in addition to those offered by the builder. You'll get more, but you won't pay more for it. Each builder and their representatives are focused on selling the homes within their community. If you rely only on the information provided by the builder, you are missing out on the objective insights and expertise of having a personal Realtor ® Short Sales and Foreclosures Although these properties are less common than in previous years, these are the most intense real estate transactions in the market. Having a Realtor ® is a tremendous advantage.

The Home Buying Process

Closing 101 Prepare for It Closing day marks the end of your home-buying process and the beginning of your new life! To make sure your closing goes smoothly, you should bring the following: Arrange for a wire transfer of funds to the title company * Please confirm all wire transfers with a call to your Realtor or title company as there have been scams that direct funds to unauthorized accounts An insurance binder and paid receipt Photo IDs Social security numbers Addresses for the past 10 years Own It Transfer of title moves ownership of the property from the seller to you. The two events that make this happen are: Delivery of the buyers funds This is the check or wire funds provided by your lender in the amount of the loan. Keys will not be turned over without cleared funds. Delivery of the deed A deed is the document that transfers ownership of real estate. The deed names the seller and buyer, gives a legal description of the property, and contains the notarized signatures of the seller and witnesses. At the end of closing, the deed will be taken and recorded at the county clerk’s office. It will be sent to you after processing.

The “10 Commandments” of Home Buying Thou shalt not change jobs, become self-employed or quit your job. Thou shalt not buy a car, truck or van (or you may be living in it)! Thou shalt not use charge cards excessively or let your accounts fall behind. Thou shalt not spend money you have set aside for closing. Thou shalt not omit debts or liabilities from your loan application. Thou shalt not buy furniture. Thou shalt not originate any inquiries into your credit. Thou shalt not make large deposits without checking with your loan officer. Thou shalt not change bank accounts. Thou shalt not co-sign a loan for anyone.

Let our success equal your success
