Economic Stimulus Plan Benefits San Ramon Home Owners

February 19, 2009

San Ramon CA

Revised February 17, 2009

Just signed and sealed…a $787 Billion Stimulus Plan made up of tax cuts and spending programs aims at reviving the US economy. Although the package was scaled down from nearly $1 Trillion, it still stands as the largest anti-recession effort since World War II.

Home owners and potential homebuyers stand to gain from key provisions in this stimulus plan. Here is what we know as of today…


Tax Credit for Homebuyers

First-time homebuyers who purchase homes from the start of the year until the end of November 2009 may be eligible for the lower of an $8,000 or 10% of the value of the home tax credit.  Remember a tax credit is very different than a tax deduction – a tax credit is equivalent to money in your hand, as opposed to a tax deduction which only reduces your taxable income.

The tax credit starts phasing out for couples with incomes above $150,000 and single filers with incomes above $75,000.  Buyers will have to repay the credit if they sell their homes within three years.


Additional Housing-Related Provisions

Tax Incentives to Spur Energy Savings and Green Jobs — This provision is designed to help promote energy-efficient investments in homes by extending and expanding tax credits through 2010 for purchases such as new furnaces, energy-efficient windows and doors, or insulation.

Landmark Energy Savings — This provision provides $5 Billion for energy efficient improvements for more than one million modest-income homes through weatherization.  According to some estimates, this can help modest-income families save an average of $350 a year on heating and air conditioning bills.

Repairing Public Housing and Making Key Energy Efficiency Retrofits To HUD-Assisted Housing—This provision provides a total of $6.3 Billion for increasing energy efficiency in federally supported housing programs. Specifically, it establishes a new program to upgrade HUD-sponsored low-income housing (for elderly, disabled, and Section 8) to increase energy efficiency, including new insulation, windows, and frames.

Expanding Housing Assistance—This provision increases support for several critical housing programs. It includes $2 Billion for the Neighborhood Stabilization Program to help communities purchase and rehabilitate foreclosed, vacant properties.


More Help for Homeowners in the Future

Another thing to keep an eye on in the coming weeks is President Obama’s plan to help struggling borrowers before they are faced with a default on their mortgage.

According to reports, the Obama administration is discussing plans to help borrowers who are struggling to stay afloat, but who have not yet fallen behind on their payments. At this point, details are scarce; however, reports indicate that President Obama is looking to spend approximately $50 Billion to directly help homeowners before they face foreclosure and financial disaster.

While this is good news for individual homeowners, it will likely be good for the housing industry as a whole. That’s because, assisting struggling borrowers before they default should help stop the wave of foreclosures, which are estimated to top two million this year. That, in turn, will help stabilize home prices.

The Economic Stimulus Plan is huge, and impacts a number of industries. I’ve highlighted some of the major provisions that may impact you now and in the future.

As always, if you have any questions or would like to discuss how this may specifically impact you, I’d be happy to sit down with you. Just call or email me to set up an appointment.

Current homeowners will have options to avoid disaster.

Bailout and what it means? Fedral Reserve Good or Bad.

January 7, 2009

Danville-CA- Hello a recent comment on my blog about how the Federal Reserve is a fake and just out get the American people is wrong in my opinion.   The problem is not with the Federal Reserve  it is with the fundamentals of our economy.   We are a nation based on debt and until we save more money to pay for things with cash we will always be at the mercy of market fluctuations and turbulence.  The United States is still the greatest country on earth but not for long.  It is just a natural business cycle (evolution) like when we have forest fires.  After the devastation there is room for new growth.  It is the same for the US we had great growth spurt after World War II and maybe for more years to come but it can not last for ever.  The great economic power houses through out history of all come and gone. (Egypt, Persian, Greek, Roman, Turk, Spain, France, England, Germany and now through US & Japan).  The new rising stars are going to be China and India.  Fact is you can not have indefinite growth.  Getting back to the Federal Reserve they are doing the best they can to manage a situation out their control.  While I can understand the frustration, when the dust settles, we will look back and be greatful for what the Federal Reserve did.  I heard a great comment from someone on CNBC that recessions are like having a baby, while your going throught it’s very painful but once it’s over, you a happy family.  In a couple of years we too will be a happy family.  This country will remain strong as long as we stay resliant &inovative and lead rather than retreat.  

To Your Success,

San Ramon & Danville Bank Owned Propterties

October 29, 2008

 

Danville, CA – On my last post we talked about the future of our market place.  I had mentioned how to make money in this real estate market.  Given the current market conditions you can make a lot of money by buying one the following Bank Owned properties.  These homes represent the best value.  Recently a client of ours purchased a 1 million dollar property for $695,000 with $13,000 credited for repairs.  Do deals like this exist? Yes , you are looking at them.  I also found properties in Antioch for under $50,000 with positive cash flow.

Bottom line is this if you want to make money then buy now and cashflow while the market comes back.  Then sell when everybody and theire mother is going to be buying real estate.  The Rockafellers and Vanderbelts all made themselves extremely rich during time of ecomic down trun.

I can prepare a list of investment oppertunities available right now in area.  So start making your fortune today call for a free list of investments.

San Ramon Valley 2009 Real Estate Forecast

October 10, 2008
Danville, CA – As you watched the stock market drop every day for the last two weeks you are probably wondering what is going to happen in real estate?  The San Ramon Valley is still going to adjust in price until we hit the bottom.  So where is the bottom?  The bottom is going to be 10-15% below the market price of your home in 2003.  This is not my prediction this what former Fed Chairman Alan Greenspan said more than two years ago.  Right now, if you want to sell your home, we are at the 2004 price point.  I am willing to bet that if you bought your home in 2004, you can’t sell it right now because your real estate agent is asking you to reduce your price.  We saw this happen in places like Antioch and East County last year and half. 

Now we are feeling the pinch in the San Ramon Valley.  Many people along the 680 corridor from Walnut Creek to Pleasanton took out negatively amortized mortgages that are coming due this next year.  The full impact of these homes going into foreclosure will be felt in the next two years.  The light at the end of the tunnel is December 2010. 

In the meantime, if you don’t have an urgent need to sell just hang tight.  Otherwise if you have too sell and have the equity the sooner you sell the better off you are.  In my next blog, I will show you how to make money in this market…

Best Wishes,

Sam Parwiz

$700 Billion Dollar Bailout is good for San Ramon and Danville Real Estate…

September 26, 2008

$700 Billion Dollar Bailout is good San Ramon and Danvill Real Estate…

The bailout package is good for The San Ramon & Danville Real Estate Market and here is why?

1. The money will be used to buy back loans from investors around the world holding paper on your house in San Ramon or Danville.

2. This will free money from investors in bad loans sold to them by Wall Street investment banks.

3. Now investors are free to invest in US Markets again with out the fear of total loss.

4. US companies can borrow money again from foreign investors to rebuild their business again.

5. End Result US Economy can stay a float.

This is a short term fix to get mainly foreign investors to feel good about investing in the US Markets. Until we as Americans can start to save again we will always at the mercy of foreign money.  Right now our national savings is pretty much nil, which is why the Chinese who save their money, can bank roll our way of life.  This relationship withthe Chinese can’t be sustained for ever and something must give.  I am not sure of the long term solutions but on thing is for sure if we don’t act now we could be in this mess for a least ten years or longer.  You don’t have go back to far in history to see where this happened just look at Japan.
