Myrtle Beach Real Estate Investor Strategies...
Loading
Investor Strategy...everyone should have one.
How do you manage your real estate investments when the market is falling?
The evidence is clear that the market is well below its peak: foreclosures are at a ten-year high, and there is a glut of new properties entering the market, just as the market is softening.
The people in the market who are suffering the most are the so-called “flippers”, the speculators, the overextended buyers, and those investors who took advantage of the no-money-down offers and 125% financing deals that were plentiful when the market was peaking.
BUY when prices are falling. A declining market gives a potential buyer plenty of time to shop for the “perfect” investment, a luxury not available in a bull market. Taking your time and doing your homework has the added benefit of mitigating the emotional impact of your real estate investments.

4 Months Left to Get $8K Home Buyer Tax Credit
The $8,000 first-time buyer tax credit program ends in just four short months. That means buyers need to be CLOSED on their homes by NOVEMBER 30th in order to receive the tax break.
What is the home buyer tax credit? It is a tax refund for 10% of a primary home’s purchase price (up to $8K). The amount not used on your 2010 tax return will be refunded directly to you.
Who is eligible to receive the credit? First-time home buyers and those who have not owned a principal residence in the last three years prior to purchase.
Do income limits apply? Yes. The full amount is given to individuals who make up to $75K and married couples who make up to $150K per year (adjusted gross annual income). The credit amount phases out between $75K and $95K for individuals; $150K and $170K for joint filers.
If you want to take advantage of the home buyer tax credit, contact the Beach Agent today to discuss your plans. Keep in mind it’s typically 45-60 days to close on a traditional real estate transaction (short sales and foreclosures can take much longer).

Southcreek has a beautiful lake near the pool and clubhouse with tennis courts as well as surrounded by an excellent golf course.
