NYC – Staten Island – New Brighton: W. S. Pendleton House


Image by wallyg
The W. S. Pendleton House, also known as the 22 Pendleton Place House, was built around 1855 and has been attributed to architect Charles Duggin. This Gothic Revival House possesses a striking profile and architectural individuality. Situated on irregularly shaped high grounds overlooking Kill Van Kull, a prominent tower dominates the two-and-half story residence, a survivor of Victorian Romanticism. A gabled vestibule doorway, adorned with scalloped scroll work bargeboards, projects forward from the south elevation. Diamond shaped glass is used in all the various shaped windows. On the side of the house are two one-story extensions and a greenhouse of a later period. The steeply pitched gable roofs are covered with diamond shaped shingles as is the pyramidal shaped roof surmounting the tower.

Pendleton Place, in the New Brighton section of Staten Island, is a curved residential block built by the William S. Pendleton, a pioneer lithographer, in the 1850′s. It is not known whether Pendleton or any of his family actually lived at #22, which was sold in the 1870′s to Manhattan envelope manufacturer, William P. Raynor. It was the Raynors who installed the Romanesque-style chimney. Around 1907, Willard Boyd, a mechanical engineer, bought house. In 1994, Edwin Calderon and John Almalfitano bought the house for 0k and began an elaborate restoration program.

The W. S. Pendleton House, also known as the 22 Pendleton Place House, was designed a landmark by the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission in 1969.

Buying house is a lifetime asset and many buyers do not have sufficient money in their bank to afford it. They take loan from the mortgage lenders or banks to buy the real estate property. But one should know that taking a mortgage loan will have an effect on their credit score. And in order to get a mortgage loan you need to have good credit score.

Every bank or mortgage lender will evaluate your credit score to find out your ability in repaying the debt in time and to the completion. On the basis of your credit score they will approve your loan and also decide the amount that you can get as loan. Therefore to acquire loan as per your requirement it is important to have a good credit score and if you do not have it then start working on it to improve it.

It is good for you to know that all banks and mortgage lenders do not report to same agency for the credit score. As a consequence your credit score will differ with each agency. Therefore the mortgage lender always takes the middle score as your credit worthiness. Hence before applying for loan it is better for you to check your credit score and if need be work on it to improve. Read further to know ways to improve your credit scores.

The very first thing that you should do is find out your credit report. The credit report of an individual in The United States is determined and maintained by three agencies and they are Equifax,Trans Union, and Experian. You can request for your credit report online at http://www.AnnualCreditReport.com.

Once you have your credit report check it for any errors in accounts. Sometimes by error someone else transaction might reflect on your account or there can be a credit fraud too. And this will affect your credit score. Therefore it is very essential for you to study all the details of the transaction in your credit report. If there is any error then you should report to the concerned company and ask them to make the necessary corrections.

Then make a separate request for your credit score to know about your credit worthiness which will ultimately decide your loan approval. The credit score will tell you where you stand in the credit scale which is from 850-300. If your score is somewhere in between 800 to 850 then you have excellent credit worthiness and you will get loans easily and that too with some benefits like lower interest rates. If you are anywhere less than 720 then you have to improve your scores. If you are within 650 then you can still you’re your loan approved but not with any benefits and if you are lower than this scale then you have to do a lot of things before thinking of buying own house.

For those below the scale if you want to improve your credit scores then start working on your current debts. You must start paying your credits in time. You can start with lesser debts first. If you have trouble in paying your credits then speak to the creditor and make your payment plan accordingly. It is better to handle one credit account rather than opening too many. Keep in mind that it will take time to improve your credit score

Good neighborhood is an important aspect of choosing a house. Apart from the price and condition of the property the neighborhood comprising the area is also very significant for you to purchase a house. The residents in your neighborhood can influence your house in lot of ways. If you buy your house in a friendly and well to do society then you will always take pleasure in residing in the area or else you will constantly face problems.

The factors that define a good neighborhood depend entirely on your needs and taste. But there are some basic factors which every buyer must think about before purchasing a house. These comprise the transport facility, quality of schools, crime rate in the neighbohood, future prospects of the area and nearness to school, work place, shopping centers, medical facilities and recreation centers.

If you are a first time buyer and have a specific budget for buying house then it is better to look for properties in the suburbs of the city where there is good prospect in the future. You will not only get a house in your budget but also can expect good returns in the future. Prior to finalizing a house it is better to find out the proportion between the demand and sale in the area. This way you will get to know the most happening place in the future.

The quality of schools in the neighborhood is a significant factor. Find out the number of schools and educational institutes in the area and get the opinion about them from the residents in your development area. Also if you are working parents then the accessibility of day boarding is also essential.

Crime rate in the neighborhood can also have an unpleasant affect in the locality. You can  find out the rate of crime in your area and about their activity from the nearby police station. Also it is significant to find the level of police activity for ensuring law and order in the area. Safety and security is an eminent part of good neighborhood.

A good neighborhood should also have good connectivity to the main city or have good employment opportunity. Imagine how hard it would be for you and your spouse to travel to your respective work place everyday if the distance to the workplace is too long or if the traffic is too high. All these will ultimately take your peace of mind and you will lose the interest in your new home.

There are some essential needs which have to be taken care of while selecting house to purchase. The nearness to recreation centers, shopping malls, hospitals and medical facilities, children’s park, parks and fitness trails and the liveliness of the community center in the area. All these factors will make sure that you also have a good lifestyle.

House for Rent Bangalore

When is the best time to buy real estate? Ideas on how to know when to enter the market in your home town.

So you’re in the market for a new home. Whether you’re a first time home buyer, or looking to upgrade or downgrade your life style, there are some signs you can look for to determine the best time to buy House for Rent Bangalore in your home town.

The local newspapers are the best way to locate homes. Today, more and more sellers are looking to sell their homes on their own, also known as For Sale by Owners. They do this to avoid paying high House for Rent Bangalore commissions to a broker. Also, many times these sellers will be the most flexible in negotiating price with a buyer, which is why they want to go at it alone. This can result in a favorable situation for you as the buyer. If you are already pre-approved by a licensed mortgage company, this will make you even more appealing to a home seller. The main way they advertise the sale of their property is through the local newspapers.

If you look at the Legal notices of your newspaper, you will also find homes that are in a pre-foreclosure state. This means that a homeowner is behind on their mortgage payments, usually 2-3 months or so, and the banks are beginning the foreclosure process. Many times these homes can be purchased at below market prices since the sellers are in a financial situation and need to exit the property without having a foreclosure adversely affect their credit rating. The papers will have the property address listed in the legal notice. With this information, you can drive by the property, preview the neighborhood, etc. If you like what you see, you can send the seller a letter (you already have the address!) and let them know that you are interested in possibly buying their home, and saving them from further financial and legal problems.

Ironically, if you notice an increase in interest rates, this is also a good sign that it’s time to buy. The reason is that when interest rates increase, home prices tend to decrease. This is due to the fact that it costs buyers more money to purchase a home when interest rates are high, thus creating a shortage of buyers. If you believe the old law of supply and demand, you know when there are fewer buyers, the prices drop in an effort to attract more buyers. Although it may cost you a bit more in monthly mortgage payments, this will only be a temporary burden. Once interest rates drop, you can always refinance the mortgage for a low interest rate, which results in a lower monthly payment to the bank. The reverse of this is also true. When interest rates drop, this can create a buying frenzy in your neighborhood. Also, you can buy a bigger home, since it would cost you less in monthly mortgage payments.

Finally, if you see more and more signs for Open Houses, this is also a good buying time. If there are several homes for sale in your neighborhood, this creates competition amongst the home sellers, which can also, result in a lower sales price. This is especially true if you live in a community where many of the homes are similar in style, size, etc.

After days of search you are now all set to buy your dream house. The last step in the entire process of buying house is the closing. In the closing the buyer and the seller meet together to sign all the documents related to the sale of the house and the ownership of the house is transferred to the new owner.

Normally as a buyer you already know what the agreement is all about but it is better to inspect the house one last time before you go for the closing. For example you should be sure that the repairs which at the time of home inspection earlier you have pointed out are complete and also see that all the items like the appliances and furniture that you wanted to retain in the house were there.  It is just to ensure that the seller has completed his assigned responsibility.

The closing meeting will also include the real estate agents of the seller and the buyer, buyer’s property attorney, lender’s attorney and representatives of the title company. In closing the seller and buyer have to sign few legal documents. The seller formally transfers the house ownership to the buyer by signing the deed and the buyer pays the amount already mentioned in the deed.

The seller also hands over other significant documents of the house like the insurance paper, title evidence, property tax receipts and so on. Also the buyer pays the seller for any extra expenditure that has been formerly decided upon for example any furniture or appliances that you want to retain in the house, any prepaid real estate taxes that has been paid by the seller and even for the repairs that the seller was asked to do by the buyer.

In addition to that the buyer also pays for the title insurance. As a buyer you must take the services of the title company for the “title search” of the property that you intend to buy. The title company searches all the public and real estate records of the property in the county or the town and provides you information about any latest legal dispute on the property and any fine on the house for non payment of the taxes. As a buyer you will know if the property title is clean and if there is any tax due on the property so that you do not have any legal problems later. Moreover this title insurance will cover you from any title dispute with the third party in the future.

The escrow is the third party attached in the closing. The entire deal is done through escrow and the title company till the concerned parties completes their responsibilities. It actually protects the interest of both the seller and buyer. At closing the buyer also pays service fees to the real estate agent. All the legal procedure is performed and recorded. And the buyer finally gets the home keys and becomes the new home owner of the property legally.

Many people are entering into for sale by owner real estate agreements than ever before. With property sales at an all-time low and millions of homes for sale, the real estate market is oversaturated; making it difficult to sell properties for profit.

Listing property as for sale by owner real estate allows homeowners to reduce the sale price to attract buyers. FSBO offers benefits to both seller and buyer and saves both parties thousands of dollars in realtor commissions. However, property owners who choose this option should become educated about the process. Otherwise, they could place their property at risk.

The Internet offers a wealth of for sale by owner tips, information and resources. Sellers can download real estate contracts, order FSBO education kits, locate real estate lawyers, and join real estate networking groups to share tips or connect with potential buyers.  Numerous websites exist where sellers can list FSBO real estate for a nominal fee.

It is important to determine property value before placing a ‘for sale by owner’ sign in front of your home. Property values are determined based on location, condition, amenities, and sale price of comparable homes in the area. It is best to hire a professional real estate appraiser to obtain an accurate assessment.

A home inspection is required to locate potential problems and provide time to make necessary repairs. Home inspections are required before closing can occur, so it is best to hire a home inspector before listing the FSBO realty.

Take time to become familiar with real estate contracts. Learn how to negotiate terms of the sale and understand legalese of closing and settlement documents. It is best to retain the services of a real estate lawyer to review for sale by owner real estate contracts and ensure they are legally binding and properly executed.

At present, real estate is a buyer’s market. It is important to prepare the home and make it better than other homes for sale in the area. This might involve deep cleaning, repairing or replacing broken items, or painting the interior and exterior of the house. Remember the exterior is the first thing buyers see, so take time to make the outside shine.

One for sale by owner tip that might expedite the sale of your home is to host a yard sale. Not only can you sell items no longer needed, you can inform visitors the home is for sale.

Create informative flyers to hand out to visitors. Include pictures and details of the house, along with the sale price and contact information. Talk to everyone who arrives at the yard sale and ask them to let others know about the property sale.

Consider offering a finder’s fee to generate excitement about telling others about your home. Be prepared to show the house to interested parties. One couple used this strategy and sold their home on the spot during their yard sale. If it can happen to them, it can happen to you.

Selling real estate without a realtor can be overwhelming. Keep in mind it is not necessary to do everything alone. Hire professionals to perform various tasks. If you do not understand contracts, hire a real estate attorney. If you don’t have time to paint, hire a painting company. If you dislike cleaning, hire a cleaning crew.

For sale by owner real estate places everything in your hands. If you invest time in becoming educated about the FSBO process before listing your property, you can save yourself a lot of stress and money. Education is the key to selling your home, so don’t skimp on the process. Otherwise, you could learn a painful and costly lesson.

Are you planning to shift to Mumbai, the city of dreams? Well if this is the case then you will have to first look out for a good house in Mumbai. Getting a perfect house in Mumbai is actually a difficult task. No doubt this is a very huge city but the property rates here are too high and not everyone is able to afford it. But now with the change in market condition there are few great properties opened that are affordable to common man. In case you want to buy house in Mumbai you need to make sure that you follow certain tips and then only buy a property for yourself.

The first thing that you will have to make sure is to have a small market study about property. As Mumbai is a very big city you will first have to read the market carefully and pen down the areas in which it is affordable for you to buy house in Mumbai.
The next thing that you will have to know is regarding the options of getting a loan to buy house in Mumbai. The property rates in Mumbai are always high as compared to other places in India. Therefore having a loan is always advisable. So look out for good loan options from the most reliable source.
Do not rush so much that the property might not prove to be high yielding after certain time. Property is the best investment that one can have as it never depreciates and therefore you will have to check with such a place whose value is likely to increase in recent times.
There are certain localities in Mumbai that are considered as the most hyped zones. They are in demand. As Mumbai is such a vast place you will find that people of different class have certain localities fixed. It is upon your budget and desire whether to opt for a posh area or a suburb.
You can contact a good estate agent who can help you to buy house in Mumbai as per your need. A good agent will be aware of those sections where a good house according to your wish is available. This is the reason they are the best option to look for.

Make sure that when you buy house in Mumbai, you verify all documents and complete the entire paper work in a legal way. There are many cases where people forge others in the name of selling a house wherein they might not be the owner of the house. So make sure that you do not be a victim of the same.

Erica Bess and David Genovese


Image by Darien Library
David Genovese has designated two apartments in his new building as affordable housing apartments for town employees, and has offered to lease one to the new Louise Parker Berry Fellow, Erica Bess. Thanks David!! This is very generous of you.

Renters whou are considering renting an apartment are sometimes attracted by the playful and interesting designs that leasing agents present them. Even though the furnishings in those apartments appeal from an aesthetic point of view, they are also installed there for other purposes. For instance, the room is made larger when then are furnishing on the walls. This effect on the renter will give the impression the rooms are bigger and more spacious. Also, the size of room furniture will be affected by this visual effect. Because the bed size, table size and furniture size will look smaller, you will be given the impression that you have more space for you. The guidelines outlined below will be a useful thing to review when wanting to rent an apartment or house.

Bed size – Important or not?

Determining the bed size is an important thing you need to do. Because you need to evaluate the apartment before making any kind of decision, leasing agent will ensure that you are given the impression of space. For instance, the bed can be full size while your bed will be king size, that is in the room you will be living in, therefore, calculating available space is difficult, since you are not going to be able to make any kind of estimation. Therefore, you need to carefully look at things since appearances might be deceiving. Also, there is no way to determine at first sight whether a bed is queen or king size, therefore you might not be able to determine which size the bed. Because of that, you won’t be able to estimate how spacious the room actually is. A solution to this common deception used by leasing agents might be to make your own measurements and see whether the things are the same as in reality.

Furniture inside the Room?

When you are looking at a furnished model, you need to take a good look and see whether there is enough space inside the room. For instance, a kitchen table with only two chairs will give you the impression of much more space than in the case of having the kitchen table and four chairs. Therefore, the room might appear larger in the first case, whereas in reality, you will find that the room is actually smaller. Make sure you inquire exactly about what you will find in your room and then make decisions.

The furniture amount in the other rooms is also a thing to consider. A room in which a bed and nightstand is located will look far larger than a room with a bed, a dresser and two nightstands therefore, it is highly important that you are not fooled in by the size of things. You might see the apartment larger than in reality and this is a common ruse used by leasing agents into leading people to rent the apartments or houses.

Is the Room Layout in the Right Order?

When looking at an apartment, you need to pay close attention to how things inside the room or inside the house are organized. Because an apartment might have for instance, all the pieces pertaining to the furniture but still, arranged in a funny way, that should signal to the person wanting to rent the apartment that something is not right .sometimes, renting agents arrange the things in the room so that it looks neat and organized and renter are surprised to see when they come to install themselves in their new renting places that the house doesn’t look the way it was in the first place. For instance take the example of a family room. It should contain an entertainment center, and a coffee table, a couch, a TV set and perhaps some end tables.

While they might be present in the room you are viewing, they might not be arranged in the right order. The pieces of furnitures might be positioned in a very strange way. While renters want the pieces in such a way that the layout looks cozy and conducive to conversations, the leasing agents might arrange them, in their hurry, with the television set placed in one dark corner, where no one can see it and the tables might be put at the end points of the room, instead in the center. Therefore, this subtle indication should make you analyze further the offer that you are viewing. A strange representation of what a room looks like might signal you that you are on the point of not making a real deal, therefore, you should be extremely selective with the things that you are viewing.

Tampa, Florida, December 17, 2007 – We will buy your home. At FastHomeSolutions you want to sell your home and we buy houses. This is what we do for a living. We are Professional Real Estate Investors that have money waiting to purchase homes of those that either need to or just want to sell their home. Pre-foreclosures or in foreclosure? We can negotiate with the bank so you can sell your home to us and you can have the piece of mind you need to move on without having a foreclosure on your credit. We will even make your payments for you which will improve your credit score quickly.

If you read the newspapers or watch your local news you know that selling a home in today’s market is a risky proposition and most real estate agents are not getting the job done. It is a home buyers market today and any qualified home buyers are looking for the perfect deal. Insurance and Taxes are forcing a lot of people out of their homes. Taxes, insurance and declining prices spell disaster if you need to sell your home. We will buy your home at a fair price based on current averages and sell fast. It’s a huge opportunity for REO asset managers,” said Jim Case, CEO of Fast Home Solutions, which recently launched its online property investors website at www.FastHomesolutions.com. “We’re seeing investors from all over, especially France, Germany and Belgium, as well as from the United Kingdom, Canada and Australia. They are eager to buy U.S. homes, villas, properties now, while their own currencies are strong against our dollar.

This is good news for loan servicers and loss mitigation professionals charged with disposing of owned real estate. The online auction concept, while not new, is experiencing a surge of popularity because of the ease with which properties can be vetted by potential buyers, whether for investment or owner occupancy. “Asset managers are getting slammed right now by the sheer volume of properties they must sell,” observed Case. “Online auctions are the best way to get properties in front of the most people, but REO people are so busy at the moment, it is difficult to consider new methods.” Fast Home Solutions approach to attract REO listings is to avoid the negatives buyers and sellers have seen in the past with online auctions. “Buyers hate paying premiums to buy properties online, so we’ve eliminated them,” said Case. “At the same time, investors want research on areas and values, as well as finding local property managers, so we’re adding content to make those available at minimal or no cost,” he added.

The “Half-back” Phenomenon

Further complicating things for REO asset managers desiring sell property in Sunbelt areas is the increase of people leaving places like Florida for financially more hospitable climes. Their properties are competing with REO sales for buyer attention, and keeping prices low. These are people who have been whipsawed by rising insurance rates caused by the hurricanes and sinkholes of recent years, as well as increased property taxes. Rather than moving all the way back up north, they are going half way, to places like Georgia, the Carolinas and Tennessee, hence the term “half-back.” “These neighboring states have much more attractive scenarios for these sellers,” explains Jim Case. “And they still don’t have to put up with harsh winters.” With these additional properties cluttering up the inventory, REO sellers are finding their work cut out for them.

This new wave of foreign investors may be the key to keeping the market moving, said Case. “We send out over a million opt-in emails to investors every week and I can tell you that the demand for property listings is getting stronger every day,” he said. “The dollar’s weakness right now may work out to be a blessing for the REO asset managers, especially since these foreign investors like to buy more than one.”
