If you live in Sarasota or any area around Sarasota, Florida, you know how lucky you are. More and more home buyers are coming to the Sarasota area searching for the perfect neighborhood. With so many communities and so much to choose from, you need a Realtor® that can help you narrow down your choices and show you the homes that match your ideal living situation.
Bruce Myer has been Sarasota’s leading Realtor® for over three decades. He knows the areas well having lived, worked and participated in many local events. With all his experience he has put together real estate questions and answers that are frequently asked in the Sarasota area:
What is the Difference Between Pre-Qualification and Pre Approval?
Pre-qualifying gives you an idea of how much of a loan you’ll likely qualify for. Pre-approval is the second step, a conditional commitment to actually grant you the mortgage.
How Good Does My Credit Score Need to Be?
Your FICO score (an acronym for Fair Isaac Corporation) will determine the amount of the loan, the interest rate and the percentage of the money you need to put down. The better your score the better the loan terms will be. A score of 700 or more is considered excellent. When your score drops into the 600s is good, 500s is risky. Below that, you may not qualify.
What’s the Difference Between a Condo and a Townhouse?
The difference is in what you actually own. Ownership in a condo means you own everything inside the condo including plumbing, electricity, and fixtures, etc.. You pay a maintenance fee to cover the external part of the structure such as the roof, steps, landscaping and any other common areas on the property. Townhouse ownership means you own the structure just as you would a single-family detached home, except you have a communal wall. You own the land underneath the townhouse including the yard, steps, patio, and garden. Most townhouses have HOA’s in place to cover the maintenance of the common areas.
Should I Work With One Realtor?
YES! You need to pick one experienced Realtor® to work with when looking for a home in Sarasota. This is because, Knowledgeable, licensed Realtors® understand the ins and outs of the Sarasota real estate industry and can help you navigate what can otherwise be the often-confusing process of buying a home. You want a Realtor® that listens to what you want and can guide your to the right community in Sarasota that fits your style and budget. Working with Bruce will get you even more information about what each community and home has to offer and not waste your time showing you home in communities that don’t suit your needs.
