Homeowners who don't need the equity from their home to purchase a new home may consider renting it instead of selling. Rental property is almost always a good investment, but you should understand the consequences of becoming a landlord.

Tenants may not share your pride of ownership and, therefore, may not maintain the property like you would. If you plan to rent your property, acquaint yourself with state or local landlord/tenant laws, including those dealing with rent control and eviction procedures. If the home you rent has been your primary residence, you could lose the benefits of a capital gains deferral when you sell it later. Get professional advice from a tax expert and a professional real estate agent before you decide to turn your home into rental property.

We are experienced in most loan programs & can help make sure you understand the pros/cons of each option so YOU can make informed decisions. For all of you 1st Timers we understand 1st Time Buyer Programs too and they still exist!!. They generally come with FREE $$ to assist with the down payment & closing costs. There are still a couple of 100% Financing options available such as VA Loans or USDA Loans in parts of St Johns County or Southern Clay County. Military Members may even qualify for a one year extension of the Home Buyer Tax Credit. We are only a text, email or phone call away and would enjoy joining in your home hunting if you would allow us to. :-)
