Keeping Your Home Buying Wish List On Track

Although experts in the real estate industry continually suggest the importance of seeing a lender before doing anything else with regards to purchasing a home, many buyers don’t. Instead, they merrily attend open houses, mine Internet real estate databases and hound real estate agents to show them homes that they may not even qualify to purchase.

We want to help you be a smart homebuyer, so we’ve developed a checklist to help you keep your home buying wish list realistic.

To avoid creating a fantasy wish list you absolutely must know how much money you can spend on a house. Only a lender can help you determine this figure. Once you know what you can spend, we can help you determine where you can afford to live. From there, you can build a realistic wish list.

The Home

The first items on your home buying wish list should be based on what you absolutely can’t stand about your current home. Is it too far from work? Then your home buying wish list should include that you want a shorter commute. Does it drive you nuts to have to find a parking place every night when you get home? Put a garage on the home buying wish list as well.

Next, determine what you need on your home buying wish list. If you have a large family, maybe you need additional square footage or more bedrooms and bathrooms. If you work from home, perhaps an office is a must. Bad knees and staircases don’t mix so a one-story home may be a necessity.

Finally, it’s time to think about the extras you will want for your home buying wish list – those items that you can live without, but it would be wonderful if they were included in your new home.

The Neighborhood

Now that you’ve figured out what your ideal home should include, it’s time to think about the type of neighborhood in which you’d like the home to be situated. Some items to consider for your home buying wish list:

• Crime: A neighborhood’s crime rate is something that you will need to investigate on your own as laws prevent real estate professionals from discussing this with you. Call the local police department for neighborhood crime statistics. You’ll also find information online, with the FBI’s Sex Offender Registry.

• Property values: Look for a neighborhood where property values are rising. You’ll usually find these types of neighborhoods on the fringes of more expensive communities, according to the National Association of Realtors.
• Easy Ingress and Egress: The ease of entering and leaving a neighborhood is especially important to commuters.
• Future Plans: Many homebuyers underestimate the impact of an area’s future plans on their property values. The best way to find out what the city has in mind for the area surrounding your neighborhood is by visiting the city planner’s office.
• Noise Level: While many people don’t mind the sound of kids playing and loud music, others aren’t comfortable in anything less than complete silence. If you are of the latter group, cruise the neighborhood in question at different times of the day and night and on weekends as well as weekdays.
• Lifestyle: If you’re a young, single professional you probably won’t feel at home in a family neighborhood so consider a place downtown, or close to it. If you can put up with the typically higher crime rate and lack of convenient parking, a home in the urban core may be ideal. Folks with kids, on the other hand, may want to look at neighborhoods with cul-de-sacs so the little ones are safe from traffic.
• Neighbors: Because the condition of your neighbor’s homes will affect the value of yours, take a good look at the other houses on the block. Foreclosures will drag down the value of neighboring homes. Unsightly landscaping and poorly maintained homes do likewise.
When the home buying wish list is finished, we’ll find you some affordable neighborhoods and get down to the serious business of the Great American Househunt.

Here’s a checklist to bring along with you:
• Determine exactly how much you can afford to spend on a home.
• Ask us to point you to some neighborhoods with homes priced within your budget.
• Determine what drives you crazy about your current home
• Get clear on your needs in a home
• Decide on your “wants-but-can-live-without” items

Investigate potential neighborhoods:
• Crime
• City planning
• Traffic
• Noise level
• Does it fit your lifestyle?
• Do the neighbors take care of their homes?
• Proximity to schools
• Proximity to city amenities

Top 6 Real Estate Secrets When Selling Your Home

Top 6 Real Estate Secrets

#1: Open Houses Don’t Work.

Open houses are a thing of the past. Years ago, when you wanted to sell your home, the only way that buyers could see the inside of your home was to be invited to view your home via an open house or making an appointment with the agent listing your home. Now, if a buyer wants to see your home, they can just go online, to any of a dozen sites, and see the inside of your home without ever having to leave their living room.

The truth is open houses don’t work! Real Estate agents host open houses not to sell your home, but to obtain additional clients who are looking to sell their homes (including your neighbors). The fact is, you are more likely to win the lottery than sell your home with an open house in most areas.

#2: Marketing is Job Number 1.

If you are selling your home, the real reason you hire a Realtor is marketing. A Realtor’s job is to get as many qualified buyers to your home as possible so that you can sell your home for the highest price. Marketing is the cornerstone of the Real Estate business and a Realtor that does not know marketing, is not worth the commission. Many Realtors avoid the topic of marketing and try to confuse homeowners with internet terms and the size of their firm, all of which means nothing to the actual sale of your home. Here are the things you should be aware of:

* When you hire someone to sell your home, first make sure they are a Realtor and ask to see their Realtor card. There is a big difference between Realtors and Real Estate agents. Real Estate agents cannot list your home in the MLS, a database of homes for sale by participating Real Estate firms.

* Make sure you select a Realtor that truly understands marketing – proactive marketing. All agents use the internet, so that is no big deal. All listings will likely be on Realtor.com and Zillow. Have your agent do a S.W.O.T analysis for you, find out if they work full-time as a Realtor, and ask them what they do that DOES NOT involve the internet to sell your home. Find out how long they have been Realtors, and ask to see any 3 homes sold in each of the last four years. In a very short time, you will be able to sort through the wheat and chaff.

* Don’t be fooled by the most common secret. An agent will mention they work for a big firm, and therefore, your home will get more views on the internet. This is not true, in almost all cases, any home being listed by a Realtor will be listed on the website of all the Real Estate firms in the area and most national websites as well. So even if you list your home with “Mom and Pop Realty,” your home will show up on even the big companies’ Real estate websites.

#3: Discount Brokers/Limited Service Brokers Can Be a Good Choice.

Regardless of what the industry tells you (including real estate agents) these firms have a place at the dinner table and serve a vital function in the industry. Let’s be honest – all people are a little frugal, and if you could find a cheaper alternative to paying a Realtor, you would. On occasion, discount brokers/limited service brokers can save you money.

Here are two specific cases where we refer our clients to limited services/discount Realtors:

Scenario 1: You have a home under $120,000 (don’t be jealous, Californians and New Yorkers).

Real Estate is a business, and agents are people who rely on that business to pay their own bills. So, if your agent works at a firm that takes a cut of the commission (in many cases 30-50%), the agent must determine if selling your home is a good business decision. Lets look at the numbers:

* Home Price = $120,000

* 3% commission (Listing Side only) = $3600

* Minus Firm Split (35%) = – $1260

* Minus Taxes (25%) = – $900

* Minus marketing = – $800

* Leaves a net commission of $640, to the agent

If the agent only nets $640 on the deal, how much time can you reasonably expect them to spend on your behalf selling your home? In this case, using a limited service broker could save you $2000+ dollars on the listing side after the cost of the limited broker fees and expenses are deducted.

Scenario 2: You are in a super hot market.

If you are in a market that is so hot that all you have to do is put a sign in your front yard, then limited service is a good option. They put your home in the local MLS system and buyers just show up. AWESOME! The key to making this work is to have your home appraised before you call the limited service brokers to make sure you are selling your home for the right price. Once you get a contract from a buyer’s agent, hire another agent or lawyer to help you with the details on an hourly or fixed-rate basis. The key is making sure you only accept contracts from buyer’s agents. If you are not sure what that means, get clarification in your state. (I can’t give you all the secrets!)

#4: All Agents Are NOT Created Equal.

Just like any industry, there is a range of competence within the Real Estate world; However, many people believe that all agents are the same. I suggest that when you are interviewing agents, request that they send you the contracts ahead of time, and prepare a set of questions for them to answer. If you are in North Carolina, here are just a few questions I suggest:

* What is dual agency? And do you practice dual agency?

* What is the difference between due diligence and earnest money? And what happens if a buyer cancels the contract?

* Am I required to do repairs on my house, or is my home sold as-is?

* Show me the marketing plan for my home, not a generic presentation.

#5: Some Agents Will Try to “Buy the Listing.”

This is when an agent convinces a homeowner they can sell their home for a price significantly higher than market value. This tactic is successful when an owner uses money to select the agent. The agent’s intention is to have the owner sign the listing agreement under the auspices of an inflated sales price, and then the agent will steadily lower the price of your home until it actually sells.

#6: For Sale By Owner (FSBO) Homes Don’t Save Money and Time.

The company line for agents is that they will help you buy any home; however, most agents do not like to deal with FSBO properties. First and foremost, Real Estate is a FOR-PROFIT job. Owners selling their own home have made a decision not to pay a Realtor, but your agent does not work for free. Therefore, as a buyer, if you choose to consider FSBOs, you need to have a discussion about who is responsible for paying commissions. In many cases, you as the buyer could be responsible for paying the commissions on the deal in addition to closing costs and down payments

What You Can Expect From A Luxury Home

Most people define luxury majorly in terms of price but there is so much more to luxury than just the amount of money you spend. It is very hard to define luxury homes in an exact way because this is something made up of several factors. If you are looking for a posh home to buy, there are some general qualities expected within it and they are what together create the luxury that is the home. Below are some of the features that such homes tend to have in common.

Prime location

Luxury homes tend to in coveted locations like on the beach or overlooking a sea for that matter. Others are in secluded mountainous areas or atop one while others may be overlooking a beautiful city. It all depends on whether you wish to have your home in the city or the country but generally they will be prime located attracting high end buyers for that reason.

High price

Like mentioned earlier price does interpret luxury and most homes under this category will be highly priced. Different areas attract different prices but you cannot expect to pay anything lower than half a million when looking for a luxurious home to and the prices can go way up into tens of millions depending on the magnitude of the property.

Exquisite amenities

Luxury home carry the most exquisite amenities in that you can conduct your life right from your home without needing other services out of it. Most will have a gym, spa, swimming pool, Jacuzzis, arcade rooms, movie theaters and even decontamination rooms. Some luxury homes come with outrageous amenities and they are what attract the buyers because they make the property unique, self-sufficient and convenient in every sense. They are some of the factors commanding prices apart from location.

Premier quality

Luxury homes have everything selected with care from the appliances, finishes, design and even materials used for construction and décor. They are all cut above standards so you the buyer can have something to pride yourself in. Hardwoods, marbles, crystals and Venetian plasters among others are common components in the homes.

Exclusivity

High end buyers including high profile individuals and celebrities treat their homes as serene refuges hence privacy is given center stage in luxury homes. If the home is not located in a secluded land large in size, then privacy will be achieved using foliage covers, high walls and tightly gated entrances sometimes complete with guards to keep the peace.

Luxury homes without doubt have so much to offer to buyers; as long as you can buy it, you can enjoy it. Some buyers actually look for homes that have interesting stories or histories behind them to give them that edge that everyone yearns for. Whatever the choice you make, you can definitely expect much more from a luxury property than a standard normal home. The choices are numerous so finding your ideal luxury home should not be too much of a task.

Search Engine Results & Keyword Researching

Alright, so it’s been awhile. How ya doin, excellent? Let’s go.

Have you ever been figuring out strategies to do long-tail keywords and keyword research efficiently? So have I. Personally I think as that you develop your personal technique that works and however you discover your keywords is good, as long as it really works. Here are 3 free tools that I use to search for both short and long-tail keywords.

1) 99webtools.com

This website is awesome. The website has some of the most needed tools for you the blogger, internet marketer, SEO, etc. It ranges from tools such as a spider-view checker, keywords suggestion tool, alexa rank checker and all other types of stuff. Alright, before I proceed, I must confess that all the tools I listed don’t seem to work after I told you about them. Check them, as you may need to find a different program or website for these other items. OK, the tool I use is the Bulk PA DA checker.

This is a search engine results page service and is driven through Moz’s Mozscape, which provides: domain authority, page authority, and backlinks. First, Mozscape isn’t cheap. For somebody like myself, that works a 9-5 and has zero additional money arriving in, the price for Mozscape at $250-mth makes me die on the inside. Using this will help you find a grasp on the type of competition your up against within the SERP and see whether the keywords are actually ones you want to pursue, or pass by and try for the following keyword(s). Ensure that you focus on page authority, however, not used for rankings by Google, this will provide you with an idea of how good the pages are in the SERP.

2) Google Suggest

Listen, you’ve probably read it a million times already through someone else’s blog post, type your keywords into the search bar and look at the related queries that come up. These are queries that others are looking for that Google thinks is related to the query your typing in at that moment, check them.

You know just where this is heading? Yup, the bottom of that Google SERP. LOOK AT IT too, more suggestions means more suggestions. More combinations means better numbers, which better numbers can provide a chance of better rankings. It’s always a numbers game, and you want numerous numbers, believe me. Make certain you have got this:keyword keg. this gives you approximate search volume statistics and relative competition, that will help you analyze quickly if the word(s) are worth pursuing.

3) LSIgraph.com

What exactly is LSIgraph? Basically another keyword generator tool with a fancy name. You can basically say its the same as Google suggest, but different software. I did a few quick searches and it seems to give some good information. This tool is good in giving you different keywords to target and think about more in-depth.

I know there are tons more of absolutely free tools that I have forgotten or have not talked about. At the bottom find several of my reputable mention web pages, which are free, but ultimately you’ll have to purchase them.

Creating a Method for International SEO

The term “localization” has become increasingly common over the past few years and with good reason: in this digital age, more and more companies are marketing their products and services to people all around the globe, and the most effective way of connecting with those people is by making certain that content is understandable and appropriate for the target audience. In essence, localization involves localizing content for different readers, and that includes SEO content.

Developing the most effective SEO content is not simple. In fact, this vital aspect of Internet marketing is usually best left for SEO professionals. But if you are in the position of needing to handle this task on your own – or even if you simply want to have a clearer understanding of the process that an SEO professional will be doing for you – you’ve come to the right place.

Here then are steps involved in creating a method for SEO localization.

1. The first step involves having your content translated for your target audience. Never trust machine translations or inexperienced linguists. Instead, hire a professional translator who is not only fluent in the target language, but familiar with your industry as well. Make sure that the content is localized. Details such as use of appropriate measurement methods, currency, and location-specific language and jargon are all important considerations. Remember also that some images and even colors may not be appropriate in certain countries and cultures, so your translator should be thoroughly familiar with the target culture to ensure that your content is acceptable and entirely appropriate.

2. Choose a CMS (content management system) that is “friendly” for multilingual websites. There are several of them available that provide multilingual SEO structure with a shared database, such as WordPress and Magento, for example. Using the type of a CMS with a shared database will allow you to make future changes to any section of the site and have the change automatically made to all versions of the site.

3. Determine whether or not you need a website host located in the same country in which your translated site will appear. If you decide to do so, it won’t necessarily help your local SEO, but it will improve the speed of your site to a certain extent.

4. Obtain TLDs (top-level domains) for the specific countries in which you plan to do business. (If you’re not familiar with this term, a TLD is the last portion of a domain name, such as.com,.org,.net, etc.)

5. Utilize a keyword research tool to determine the most effective keywords for your product or service in the target country (i.e., the country where your translated content will be read by potential customers). Google AdWords Keywords Tool allows you to search by language and target country, but there are others available as well.

6. Integrate these keywords into your translated content. Remember that the old method of “keyword stuffing” is now easily detectable by search engines, so avoid that at all costs. Instead, make sure that your keywords are spread throughout your content in a logical manner, while also paying attention to good grammar and spelling throughout.

Essential Tools Necessary for Professional Carpet Cleaning

Carpet is an integral part of floor decor, uplifting the visual appeal of the space with its sleek texture. However, these carpets are prone to wear and tear due to daily foot traffic, dirt, dust mites and occasional spills. To ensure a clean and well-maintained carpet, periodic carpet cleaning using the right tools and equipment is of paramount importance. Cleaning with the standard home cleaning supplies simply does not produce the desired result.

Here are the five most widely used equipment used by professionals for a thorough carpet cleaning.

Portable Cleaning Tools
For smaller areas, carpet cleaning experts use portable equipment, which are relatively large machines but is easy to carry. These machines are available in various types depending on the purposes of their uses. The portable equipment is designed for various methods of carpet cleaning based on the kind of carpet and the customer’s preference like carpet shampooing, bonnet cleaning, encapsulation, hot water extraction or dry carpet cleaning. Professional companies carry most of these portable tools with them to perform cleaning, adopting various approaches with the machines for the different methods.

Some other portable types of equipment that professional services use are as follows:

Vacuum Cleaner: A vacuum cleaner is an essential carpet cleaning tool to tidy up the carpets and complete the cleaning procedure.

Defoamer: Foam can reduce the effectiveness of the cleaning process. Hence carpet cleaners use defoamer to remove the foam and speed up the drying process. These defoamers are a mixture of silicone or oils that are effective in removing the foam.

Air Scrubber: This device works as an air filtration system and is used during dry cleaning to get rid of airborne particulates, fungi, and foul odours from the carpet. The scrubber is used after a deep cleaning job to increase the air quality in the room.

Carpet Cleaning Wand: This is the primary tool in the cleaning process. The wand is used to spray the cleaning solution as water jets, which is then sucked back through the vacuum slot in the equipment. While rotary cleaners work best for shaggy carpets, wool carpets are best cleaned with wands to prevent any kind of damage to the carpet fibres. It is not possible to use a pro extractor without one.

Crevice Tools:These are special tools to clean crevices like those between the stairs, areas that are difficult to reach and upholstery cleaning.

Protective Tools: To protect furniture and other items from suffering any kind of damage while cleaning, professionals use these protective accessories like furniture protectors, caution signs, straps, corner guards, and chemical racks.

Ventilation Assister: On completion of wet cleaning methods, service providers may blow fans to expedite the drying of the carpet.

Truck-Mounted Cleaning Equipment
These are heavy-duty cleaners suitable for cleaning larger spaces. However, it must not be inferred that truck-mounted cleaners are only used for larger commercial workspaces. There are many homes that opt for them due to certain advantages like these powerful cleaners do not mess the area cleaned since the machines draw water out of the building as the cleaning process continues instead of draining them into the toilet or sink.

These are some of the vital equipment necessary for deep cleaning of the carpet. It needs mentioning that the use of tools depends on the nature of the carpet and the type of cleaning service chosen. Before hiring the services of professional cleaners, it makes sense to find out the kind of carpet cleaning your want and if the service provider has the right tools and equipment to perform the job successfully.

5 Ways All Online Businesses Can Benefit From Local Marketing

Even if you have an international business, there are many ways that you can benefit from locally based marketing. Local marketing can also be a key to catapulting you to global markets if you know what you’re doing and why you’re doing it.

1. Vastly Improves Your Search Engine Rankings

Location-based marketing helps you get a higher search ranking because whenever anyone searches for you in that location, you’ll show up in some of the first pages of search. Even if people don’t type their location, the local businesses show up first for each search. This gives you a fantastic opportunity to attract your audience using local marketing.

2. It’s Inexpensive and Has a High ROI

Many aspects of local marketing are free. For example, putting up content that has location-based keywords, adding information to various platforms that include the right keywords for your location will improve your search results without spending a dime. Adding location-based information to advertisements will generate even more return.

3. Engage with Customers More

When you are more focused on the customer’s location, you can take advantage of some of the automatic trust you get by being focused on a location in your SEO and advertisements. You can use your actual location to get started, even if you want your business to be an international or national business. However, you don’t have to. You can focus on anyone’s location if you know you have an audience there.

4. Attract More Customers

Locally based marketing can help you attract new customers by placing the focus on one location at a time (you can do this simultaneously though) through your advertising and marketing methods. For example, if you know that you have a lot of clients in a region of Georgia in the USA focus your advertising and marketing there.

5. Become a Locally Renowned Expert

One fun and effective way to use local marketing to your benefit is to become a local expert. Start with your location or a major city near your location. Send out press releases, get interviews on local news stations, and submit articles in local publications. Then market each event that you do so that you soon become known as a local expert.
