1. Real Estate Investing 101 Seminar - Tuesday, February 21st, 6:30-8PM
With prices and interest rates low, as well as the large number of bank owned and short sale properties for sale here in the Twin Cities, real estate investors are realizing this market is one of opportunity. At this Investment Property 101 seminar, Ryan O'Neill will go over the process of becoming a real estate investor. From his experience of owning 14 rental properties, many since 2001, Ryan will go over the "ins and outs" of investment property. At this seminar, we will also offer insight on what the current financing guidelines are for investment property, how a real estate investor decides upon what type of loan product to choose, and what options are available, from commercial loans, to rehab loans, to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. This is a great event if you have any interest in simply learning about fix and flip or buy and hold investment property here in Minnesota.
Future Dates: March 20, April 17, May 15
2. Investment Property 201 Seminar - Future Date & Topic TBD
3. Buying Power for First Time Home Buyers - Thursday, February 16th, 6:30-8PM
With interest rates at record lows, prices of homes for sale here in the Twin Cities having dropped over the last number of years as well, an outstanding buying opportunity is present for first time home buyers here in our market. Often times, buyers can now own a home for less than they are paying in rent. At this first time buyer seminar, we will examine the entire buying process from the financing standpoint: from determining what down payment assistance programs may be available to you as a buyer, to helping you determine what amount of home you can buy, to learning more about the process of beginning to search for properties. Paul Docauer of The Minnesota Real Estate Team will take you through the process of working with a real estate agent: from the first meeting over coffee to learn more about you and what you are looking for in a home, to the process of looking at properties, making an offer, and moving forward to the day of closing.
Future Dates: March 15, April 19, May 17
4. Fixin' to Stay? Use a 203k - Tuesday, February 7th, 6:30-8PM
With so many of the homes in our local market needing repair, buyers have been more frequently been using a loan product called a FHA 203k to purchase and rehabilitate a home. As an example: perhaps you find the home of your dreams but it needs so much work and you don't have the immediate cash to do the repairs. At this seminar, you will learn how to turn this home that appears to be more of a fixer upper, into the home you have always wanted. With this 203k loan, you are able to roll eligible upgrades and repairs into the mortgage. This great event is presented by David Wagenius of The Minnesota Real Estate Team.
