Condohotel Loans are a Challenge these days

Thursday, April 23rd, 2009 at 11:22am. 1469 Views, 0 Comments.

Getting a loan for a Condohotel is very difficult in this current economic climate.  Not all condos are challenging but Condohotels which are condos with a front desk are a major challenge these days.  I am finding that there are some loans available but that the interest rates are very high and in the range of about 8% to 9%.  I find this really suprises buyers who see some very low interest rates being advertised by banks.   Banks not only look at the buyer but they also look at the type of property that the buyer wants to purchase.  Banks look at condohotels as a high risk property.

Staged Park City Condo undercontract in 3 weeks

Monday, April 13th, 2009 at 2:32pm. 755 Views, 1 Comments.

Last week my client's condo in Pinebrook just went under contract in 3 weeks.  She was completely amazed and thought it might take several months.  There were about a dozen similar condos on the market with none under contract in the last couple of months.  This spring I had become an Accredited Home Staging Professional through StagedHomes.com.  This condo was my first to use my new staging skills and it worked wonders.  Staged homes do sell faster in a slower market.  She was also pleased with the price I helped negotiate for her as well.
