Investing in Charlotte Real Estate

August 11th, 2010 categories: Buying your Home

We’ve all heard that Charlotte Real Estate is one of the best investments you’ll ever make in your life.

Your parents and grandparents might have even told you when you were growing up, “Buy land! They aren’t making it anymore” and it’s true. Currently, investing in Charlotte real estate is an excellent choice as this is one of the fastest growing areas in the nation– even during the recession.

But where else is it safe to sink your dollars when you have the means to do so? Maybe you’ve just graduated and you have accumulated a tidy sum in graduation gift money, or perhaps you’re a young couple that just got married and you’re set with wedding gifts that came in as currency, or maybe you’ve just been savvy enough to save your money by spending it wisely; whatever the reason or means of generating the funds, now is a time when you can afford to invest.

You could spend quite a bit of time researching and reading to try and find the five best spots to put your money. Instead, the most recently hailed as sound are right here:

Best Charlotte Investments:

1. Bank certificates of deposit usually let you invest just a few hundred dollars, and your funds are insured by the FDIC.
2. Short-term bond funds have been showing a strong return lately. Usually there is a minimum investment of $1,000.
3. Mutual funds get you into the stock market at a lower risk than if you just started buying stock in various increments. Instead, you buy into a diversified portfolio with a variety of stocks and bonds.
4. Municipal bonds are often all tax-exempt bonds (not always), and are issued by a municipality for the purchaser to cash in on at a specific period of time.
5. IRA’s – the individual retirement account. This is often a great investment especially if your employer matches your contribution out of your paycheck.

Check with a financial consultant or investment planner before making any hasty decisions with your money! Be sure whomever you choose is licensed or certified in their field and you might even want to see if there are any Better Business Bureau complaints against him or her.

When you’re ready to invest in Charlotte, NC Real Estate, get in touch with a Charlotte Realtor who can help you with the footwork.

Charlotte, Where the streets have too many names!

May 14th, 2010 categories: Charlotte Living

OK, every once in a while we’re going to tell you about something that bugs us about Charlotte!  But first enjoy this video by U2 and know that getting around Charlotte is a picnic compared to LA!

U2’s Where the streets have no names…enjoy!

Okay, well if you are new to Charlotte, you have most likely been lost on Sharon Rd, Sharon Ln, Sharon View, Sharon Lake etc. Or was it Queens? Queens Road West, Queen and Queens? And don’t get me started about how the streets change names as you drive. Runnymeade, Woodlawn, and Billy Graham all are the same road. I have lived here 19 years and still get turned around. Thank goodness for modern technology and a good GPS!

So who’s been lost in Charlotte?

Home on the Charlotte Property Range-A Little Piece of Heaven

April 14th, 2010 categories: Buying your Home, Charlotte Living

Need some elbow room? There is plenty of space available in Charlotte for everyone who wants it!

Did you know that within the last two years more than 70 Charlotte properties with two to four acres of land have sold in the Charlotte area for less than $600,000?

Now, two acres is a nice size piece of property! When you take it up to four acres, you’re really talking about even more privacy. Considering what real estate goes for in the Charlotte, North Carolina area, at a price less than $600k, that’s really not too bad when you see the kinds of homes that have been on those properties. These aren’t trailers, prefabricated homes, or tiny shacks in disrepair, some of these houses are luxurious with more than 3,000 square feet of heated living space.

Over the last couple of years, homes in a lower price range, up to $300,000, with just an acre of land have sold in Charlotte for as low as $51,000 for a three bedroom, two full bathroom 1,152 square foot home in the Moores Chapel road area. Many homes are available today with an acre of land in the $300,000. You just need to find them. How do you find them? Get a Realtor!

If you’re not claustrophobic and don’t need a “home on the range,” you might want the ease of life that owning a townhome or Charlotte condominium offers.

In the past year in the South Charlotte area, a number of outstanding real estate deals have taken place. In the Cotswold area, a condo with three bedrooms and two full bathrooms sold for $105,000 which was almost $30,000 below tax value! This is a home with over 1,400 square feet, close to the Cotswold shopping area and all of the conveniences of easy access to Myers Park, South Park, and Uptown.  Two other townhomes in South Park, just blocks away from t

The exquisite South Park mall, with two bedrooms and two full bathrooms sold for around $120,000. One of the townhomes went for just below its tax value, the other for slightly above. In fact, many condos and townhomes are currently selling for below or right around tax value at this time in very desirable neighborhoods!

You can still get a great deal of bang for your buck in Charlotte if you know what you want and you get a Realtor in Charlotte and on your side who knows what you’re looking for. If you’re undecided and you haven’t been prequalified for a loan and don’t know your price-range, it’s hard for a skilled Realtor to find what is best for you. Find out what price range you can afford by having a lender check on what you can honestly expect to borrow. That way, you and your Charlotte Realtor will not waste any time looking at homes that are too far out of your price range. Also, you’ll make sure you’re not short changing yourself by purchasing something below what you can afford. After all, you might not need a whole lot of elbow room, but your home should be the best in your range!
