Tech companies in the Bay Area and how it affects real estate in the Bay Area and Silicon Valley.6/12/2019 The influx of tech jobs have boosted real estate prices to an uncomfortable high as of recent. So what does this mean to you? Well as real estate prices increase finding a home to some can seem impossible and for good reason, I mean who wants to pay 4-8k a month on a mortgage when you can rent for way less. Well here are some tips for buying a new home and what real estate companies are offering.
Now a lot of people have heard of loan assistance programs but no one will explain. Now hopefully i can help you understand some of them and how they work. Now each county has specific called MCC which stands for mortgage credit certificate program (i guess they forgot about the P). Now MCC is for first time home purchasers and low income families that need help getting into a new home. Now without getting off topic and just to piggyback off of this you also have BMR (below market rate)properties which mostly all counties have which have income brackets and housing price brackets. Now back to the MCC program.. Each city within the county has a certain amount the can distribute so sometimes you will have to wait but in the bay area you just need to. Now these are homes that also have criteria for instance you have to live in the home and not rent it out and each city has its own time frame. BMR properties cannot be rented in the bay area. Now you also have FHA loans that can do as much as 0% down up to 3.5% if you qualify. We have a lot more programs that you can qualify for but you'll have to give us a ring so we can see how we can. Now to see if you qualify give us a call to see how we can help.
Most people don't know where else to get money for a home unless it's a big bank and very few people know mortgage brokers. Let me help you understand the difference. Now first with the big banks… they have certain limits that they can lend as far as pricing goes, and loan programs available that's why you see one bank have different rate than the other and you wonder why. Well i'm not a fan of big banks so i say who really cares. Now you have two types of brokerages- 1. A brokerage that dumps a lot of money into marketing so they will pop up on some big loan search engine but you'll pay for that marketing dollar they spent and who knows where they are. 2. Now i am a little biased because i'm a local lender and i prefer to see my clients (a little old school i guess) but i get to keep cost low, charge less (most of the time) since we don't have huge marketing money to spend, and i get to do the same thing by shopping most wholesalers to see what the best pricing will be. I'm a firm believer that if i take care of you then hopefully i get to be lucky to do your loan, your kids loans and there kids loans.
Now according to the traffic within the past ten years, the bay area and silicon valley area has had traffic increase like no other. The dreaded commute has taken a toll on all of us. Now we know financial limitations, family size will limit where we live but when working and communicating it comes to a point to know what you can do with and what you can do without. Now i've lived in southern california and northern california and i can tell you that the traffic in the bay area has come equal to southern california if not surpassed it. Who wants to really add 2-3 hours of commute along with their work day? I don’t. Now when looking for a house these are our top suggestions.
