“In a beat, you should be able to change from serious to fun and carefree.”

Launched in 2010, Jazz Residences is a 4-tower “vertical village” that boasts of five-star amenities such as a Grand Lobby and lounge, function rooms, swimming pools, gym and fitness center, jogging path, and landscaped gardens to name a few. It would also have its own mall – the Jazz Mall complete with commercial and food establishments, and an SM Hypermarket providing all the conveniences quite literally at your doorstep.

While Jazz Residences is just a stone’s throw away from the Makati Commercial Business District, it also transports you to a quaint neighborhood that is laid-back, and literally steps away from Reposo’s artistic hub – with an array of unique restaurants, designs and curio shops. Cultural activities and festivities are some of the highlights that abound in this artistic side of Makati.

Given its prime location, Jazz Residences is a good investment proposition brought about by high rental potential. Unit leasing is available through Property Management, including services such as handyman, housekeeping, etc. for a worry-free investment.

The beauty of Taal continues to draw us. This lake within an island within a lake is a view that enhances any visit to Tagaytay City. Often shrouded in mist, Taal Volcano and Taal lake hold their own mysteries deep within. Recent findings show that the fresh water lake was once filled with water from the sea — traces of an ancient beach littered with sea shells may still be found at the lake botoom 30 feet below the surface. Taal lake is home to the only known species of sea snake that inhabits fresh water, Hydrophis semperi. Fish known as tawilis and maliputo, for which Taal is famous, are likewise the only species of their kind found mostly in fresh water.

Living in style is what Splendido is all about. In a carefully selected location that gives you the best of prime real state

Let your property sell itself and create an attention-getting listing!

Thu, 17 May 2012 11:57:22 GMT

Making a classified listing is simple. Just type up a few words, plug in a few pictures, add your contact details and voilà! Your ad is complete. But perhaps it is because the process is so easy that the number of available classifieds for browsing is enormously overwhelming. The challenge therefore is not how to create an ad but how to get noticed and get sold.

How then can one stand out from the competition short of paying extra to be featured dominantly? Just follow these simple tips and increase your chances of making the sale.

1. Add attractive pictures.

As the saying goes, "A picture is worth a thousand words." People scrolling through multiple listings will not take the time to read an essay on the specifications and merits of a unit, so make a strong impression with your photos. The pictures on your listing are the first thing that call attention, so if you want to get noticed, put pictures. And if you want to invite people to stay and learn more, put attractive pictures. According to a study conducted by MyProperty.ph, having attractive photos of your property can make it 5 times more effective!

To take attractive pictures of your property, start by using a proper camera with at least 5 megapixels so that photo does not come out grainy. Clean up the property or particular room as best you can. This means that it should be devoid of unneccessary elements such as people and pets, or anything offensive such as clutter and grime. The property should be well-lit, preferably with natural light so it is best to take the picture during the day. If this is not sufficient, turn on the electrical lights or use a camera with a soft flash. Next, try to compose and frame the property well within the boundaries of the camera lens. Try to take as much of the property as possible in a panaromic view and at a straight or level angle. If the property looks picture perfect in your camera's viewfinder, go ahead and snap the photo! If you are Photoshop savvy, you can, on addition, digitally edit your photos on your computer to crop out odd objects or to improve other aspects such as lighting and resolution. Do not use Photoshop, however, to misleadingly alter the look of the property as customers will know as soon as they inspect the site. If you are caught misrepresenting facts, this could sorely affect your credibility as a seller.

2. Use a straightforward title.

When it comes to your title it is important to be simple and to the point. A listing for a "3-Bedroom Apartment For Rent in QC, No Downpayment" is more clearly understood than "Limited Time Offer! Best Location Apartment near MRT and Bus Stations with 3 Bedrooms in the Heart of Quezon City! Downpayment Not Required!!" People know what they are looking for and it is important to provide them with the information they seek immediately without burying it in too many details.

You can keep your title short by sticking to keywords. Remember, it is easier for a property seeker to skip a lengthy, roundabout title than it is to read and digest all that information. It is even very likely that not all the information will display in its entirety due to restrictions in the site's layout. For example, the search results may summarize your title to the first few characters: "Limited Time Offer! Best Location Apartment near MRT..." It is therefore best to avoid the dramatic build-up and just give the most important information first.

3. Provide complete and organized information.

If the property seeker has been hooked by your beautiful photo and straightforward title, he will be compelled to read more. Thus, all the details important to the property seeker must be enumarated in the main body of the listing: price, size, number of bedrooms, furnishings, parking, location, etc. And let us not forget the contact details! A prospective tenant or buyer may be interested in the property, but if they do not know how to reach you, the entire purpose of the classified has been put to waste.

However, it is not enough for the information to be complete. It should also be organized in an easy-to-read format. Our suggestions: place sub-titles to label sections of related text, put breaks between paragraphs or sections so that it is easy to digest, use numbers or bullet points for a list, and employ key phrases for your bullet points instead of long sentences.

4. Do not over-embellish.

While a classified ad is an advertisement, there is no reason to bombard your customer with an entire sales pitch. Put your best foot forward and highlight your property's good points but do not be so hard-sell. People tend to get turned off and tune out overly aggressive advertising. Avoid text in all caps or using too many exaggerations and exclamation points.

5. Advertise in the proper channels.

The best place to advertise your property is in a credible and targeted medium where people specifically go to to search for real estate, such as MyProperty.ph. After all, one does not go to a fashion or food website to search for real estate. It is also important to place your ads in the proper categories: whether it is for rent or for sale, commercial or residential, etc. to make your property easier to find.

6. Have a neat profile picture.

The profile photo is the first image property seekers will see and the first impression they will have of the seller. Therefore, placing a neat profile picture of oneself can help property seekers gain more trust in your listing and can contribute to higher inquiries.

At the end of the day, a classified is there to encourage a sale so everything about the classified should have that goal in mind. Put yourself in your target audience's shoes and imagine what sort of listing you would gravitate to if you were the property seeker instead of the property seller. Exercise self-regulation and make use of our tips above to put together a more effective ad. Good luck and happy selling!

Pag-IBIG Housing Programs

Wed, 16 May 2012 06:25:43 GMT

Through their housing loan, the Pag-IBIG Fund is able to help Filipinos realize their dream of purchasing, building and improving their homes. Aside from the standard housing loan program, Pag-IBIG offers other different options that make paying for or buying a house for sale or other forms of residences much easier. Here is a rundown of the other Pag-IBIG housing programs.

Gabay Pabahay Program (Circular No. 218)

The Gabay Pabahay Program, in accordance with Republic act No. 8501, is a home loan restructuring program that aims to help members who have availed of housing loans, but are now on the brink of foreclosure or cancellation of their Contract-to-Sell (CTS). Availing of this loan will help them:

· Have the option to shorten or lengthen their loan term so that they can update or pay in full their delinquent accounts

· Avail of the non-interest bearing scheme to cover the penalties and unsettled interest during the delinquency of their accounts

Socialized and Low-Cost Housing Loan Restructuring and Penalty Condonation Program (Circular No. 248)

This housing loan option is compliant with Republic Act No. 9507, in that its goal is to help out delinquent borrowers of Pag-IBIG loans in saving their properties from cancellation of CTS or from foreclosure. With this program, members will be:

· Provided with more reasonable terms

· Forgiven of their accumulated penalties, as well as part of their accumulated interests

· Offered a non-interest bearing scheme for the outstanding interests that have yet to be paid (the scheme will be divided equally throughout the term of the restructured loan)

Maagang Pabahay, Disenteng Buhay Program

In compliance with Memorandum Circular No. 112, the program aims to help people purchase the Fund’s acquired assets at low prices. These acquired assets will be offered to government employees initially, at decreased rates. A 20% discount will be granted to any buyer who pays with cash. If the property to be bought is illegally occupied, the buyer will be given an additional 5% discount. Buyers who use a housing loan to pay will be given a 15% discount, and will also get to enjoy a 6% interest rate throughout the duration of their term.

(In the next articles, each of these options will be discussed in detail to offer information on their requirements, as well as the steps involved in applying for them.)

Factors That Affect a Real Estate Negotiation

Wed, 16 May 2012 06:11:49 GMT

In a real estate deal, both the buyer and the seller want to see the odds come out in their favor if they can’t reach a fair outcome. To ensure that you can at least get the most out of the transaction, you have to consider a lot of factors, some of which you can manipulate, and others which are beyond your control.

1. The market condition. The market tends to change every so often; there are times when we are in a buyer’s market (more sellers than buyers), other times a seller’s market (more buyers than sellers) happens. Depending on what is happening in the local market, the buyer or the seller may have to work harder to get the other to agree to the deal. If, for instance, you are a buyer in a seller’s market, you might want to make your offer a bit more attractive to stand out from the competition.

2. Financial issues. One of the things that a seller looks for in a buyer is if they have been pre-approved for a loan. Getting a mortgage pre-approval can definitely put you ahead of other buyers because it shows that you are serious about purchasing the house for sale. On the other hand, if a seller’s house is on the market because the owner is having financial difficulties, then a buyer has the upper hand when the time comes to reaching a final price.

3. The options. Here’s a situation: two identical houses are being sold for exactly the same price. If the seller of one of the properties agrees to cover necessary repairs that a home inspector has pointed out while retaining the original price, the buyer will more likely purchase this house than the other one. In a different setting, a buyer can win over a seller by offering benefits, like covering part or all of the closing costs, if the seller accepts his offer.

4. The back-up. Are you a first-time seller negotiating with someone who has been investing in real estate for a long time? Or is this your first time to buy a house, and the seller has sold countless houses before? Your negotiating experience will also play a big role in whether or not you will come out on top. If in doubt, hire a real estate agent with excellent negotiating skills.

In a real estate transaction, negotiations can go on for a long time because both parties want to ensure that they get what they want. If you can’t, don’t be stubborn to the point that you will cancel a transaction if you’re not perfectly happy. You might have to sacrifice on certain aspects, but what’s important is you get the most out of the deal.

Short Sale Basics

Wed, 16 May 2012 03:35:44 GMT

In a previous article about preventing a home foreclosure, one of the tips that were suggested was a short sale. A short sale is basically a property that is put up as a house for sale to help pay off the remaining mortgage of the said property. Although a short sale can also damage one’s credit record, it won’t be as drastic as what a foreclosure can cause, which makes it a better choice.

There are other benefits to having a short sale instead of succumbing to foreclosure. With a short sale, you get to leave your house with dignity, which can get sacrificed when a person goes through a foreclosure or files for bankruptcy. If neighbors ask why you are selling quickly, you can just tell them that you need to move right away. Also, a short sale shows the lender that you have integrity because you are doing what you can to keep your end of the deal.

There are several factors that you need to keep in mind if you want to hold a short sale for your property:

a.) You should be experiencing financial difficulties

b.) The home should be underwater (your mortgage balance is greater than your home’s worth)

c.) The bank who provided your loan should be open to a short sale

d.) You should be able to find a buyer who is interested in buying your property.

Keep in mind, though, that not all underwater homes qualify for a short sale. If all of these apply to you, save for the financial hardship, your option would be doing a strategic short sale (which will be discussed in another article).

With a short sale, you’ll need all the help you can get to ensure that you can find a buyer as fast as possible, and to be able to sell the home for the amount agreed upon by you and your bank. This is what makes hiring a real estate important; they can help you accomplish these and much more. Aside from these benefits, a real estate agent can also

· help you price your home that will be neither too high that it won’t attract buyers, nor too low that the bank won’t agree to it

· handle the paperwork required to put together the short sale package to be sent to the bank

· convince the bank to agree to the short sale you are proposing

· market the home and filter out bad (lowball) offers and present you with the good ones

It’s necessary to remember that even if you house is underwater, there are things that you can do to prevent foreclosure, and a short sale is one of them. If you are experiencing financial difficulties and finding it hard to keep up with your mortgage payments, hire a real estate agent and find out if you qualify for a short sale.

Real Estate Owned Properties

Tue, 15 May 2012 09:30:43 GMT

When a house undergoes foreclosure, the lending bank takes it back and sells it off in an auction to earn back part of the remaining mortgage. A foreclosed house is sold for the sum of the loan balance and any accrued interest, the attorney’s fees as well as any other fees connected to the foreclosure process.

Because this amount is usually a lot more than the actual value of the home, not a lot of people want to risk buying a foreclosed house for sale. When this happens, the property goes back to the bank and becomes a real estate owned property, or an REO.

A lot of people find that REOs offer many benefits. When you buy an REO, you receive title insurance, which is a guarantee that the property is free of liens. Also, you can often get a better financing deal from the bank that owns the REO than you would for a traditional property.

Although banks don’t like holding on to REOs because of incurring costs, they won’t sell the property cheaply, and will try to make as much money as possible off of it. You should therefore make sure that the amount you pay for it is similar to the value of neighboring homes. Also, because REOs are normally sold “as is”, you can pay to get the home inspected, but don’t expect them to agree to shoulder any repairs.

Before you make an offer, be sure to have your agent ask questions about the property, such as

· Can the bank provide you with home inspection reports?

· Will the bank pay for any repairs that your home inspector sees?

· How will your offer be given to the bank, and how long until they accept it?

When you make an offer, it is normally sent to the bank through fax, as there are no face-to-face meetings with this kind of transaction. You should also provide the listing agent with a mortgage pre-approval to make your offer more attractive to them.

Prior to making a decision about buying an REO, be sure to do your research. Again, many people believe that these houses are bargains because they are sold below market value, but remember that there are other costs added to the price. Not to mention, you also have to spend money to get it up to standard so you can resell it.

Should You Buy Your College Kid a Condo Unit?

Tue, 15 May 2012 02:03:09 GMT

The 2012-2013 school term has arrived and, apart from helping their kids pick a college and a course, one of the things that parents consider is where their kids should live, especially if their main residence is far from their kids’ campus of choice. One of the most common options for students would be to rent a dorm, but with the boom of condominium developments, living in a condo unit is also becoming a clear possibility for students.

Condo living has a lot of benefits, but they also present some challenges to those who would consider living in (and paying for) one. Here are some of the things that you ought to keep in mind if you are considering buying a condo for sale for your college kid.

1. Cost

Buying a condo unit will set you back quite a bit, and not just because of the cost of buying the actual unit. You also have to think about additional costs like property taxes, insurance and association dues; and these costs might be too much for some, especially if their child will only be in college for 4 or 5 years. On the other hand, a condo unit can also be a great investment; once your kid graduates, you can choose to either rent it out or sell it.

2. Privacy

Living in a condo can lend your child a great deal of privacy, which is a good thing especially during exam weeks, when they require lots of quiet study time. However, if your child thrives in social environments, he may find living in a condo too quiet or isolating.

3. Safety

Most condos are equipped with surveillance cameras, and have guards to monitor the place 24/7, which should give you peace of mind. Then again, they don’t impose curfews, which means that people will continue to come and go well into the night, something that dorms are very strict about.

4. Access to establishments

How close is the condominium building to essential businesses like 24-hour convenience stores? Most college students study until the wee hours of the morning, so they need to live somewhere within walking distance of these establishments, especially if they don’t have a car. One disadvantage of this, however, is that living close to a known hotspot can be very distracting because of noise and traffic.

As much as parents would love to keep their children close to home, it’s important to let them live independently to get them ready for when they are ready to join the workforce. Whether you decide to buy a condo or have them rent a student dorm, what’s important is that they live in a place where their education, personal growth and safety are not compromised.

Carbon Monoxide in the Home

Mon, 14 May 2012 11:08:17 GMT

As mentioned in a previous article regarding the hazards in the house, there are a lot of environmental risks that may be in our home without our knowledge, and carbon monoxide (CO) is one of them. Here are the basics of what CO is, where it is commonly found in the home, and its health effects and how you can prevent them.

CO is completely colorless and odorless, but its toxicity is undeniable, as it causes death in unsuspecting victims if they are exposed to high levels of it. It is produced whenever fuel is burned, which is why in a common Filipino house, one of the biggest sources of CO is the gas range. If your home is not well-ventilated, CO can remain in the air even after you have extinguished the range’s flame, and can be inhaled by the home’s residents.

Everyone is at risk of CO poisoning. The reason why people don’t know that they are experiencing CO poisoning is not just because it’s hard to detect, but also because its symptoms seem very common. When CO enters the body, it bonds to the red blood cells’ hemoglobin, which prevents them from bringing oxygen to the brain. Symptoms such as headache, fatigue, dizziness and nausea seem innocent enough. However, people who are exposed to high levels of CO and are not given immediate treatment will experience loss of consciousness and, eventually, death.

To make sure that you are not at risk of CO poisoning, always make sure that your home’s windows are open whenever you are cooking to prevent CO from accumulating inside the home. If your home has a fireplace (such as those in Baguio) or other indoor appliances that burn fuel like space heaters and furnaces, always check them regularly for any damage. Buy carbon monoxide detectors and install them in various parts of the house so that you will be warned when there the level of CO in the house is too high.

Being vigilant is the best defense against potential environmental hazards. Because of the stealthy nature of CO poisoning, we have to be doubly careful in ensuring our family’s safety at home.

Find Out if Your Title is Fake

Mon, 14 May 2012 03:44:36 GMT

In every Philippine real estate dealing, you want the assurance that the transaction that you are about to go through is legal and will not cause you any future problems, so you make sure to work only with legitimate sellers and agents. However, there are many instances that the transaction has already fallen through, and the buyer doesn't know that he has fallen prey to a scam until he takes a look at the contract. If you have just bought a property, here are a number of ways to make sure that your contract, as well as your transaction, is legitimate.

1. Check with the Registry of Deeds if the original copy of the title certificate if filed with them.

2. Make sure that the copy you are holding is exactly the same as the original one filed with the Registry of Deeds, in that the owner’s duplicate copy is a carbon copy of the original.

3. See to it that the signatures and initial on the original and the owner’s original duplicate copies are exactly the same. The manner by which the entries were typed should also be the same, as any difference will be viewed as a discrepancy.

4. The judicial form used to make the title should bear the same serial number as the one that was forwarded by the Department of Agrarian Reform (DAR), the Land Management Bureau (LMB) or by the Department of Energy and Natural Resources (DENR) or Provincial Environment and Natural Resource Officer (PENRO).

5. Check with the Registry of Deeds and see if the contract of sale or conveyance was recorded in their entry book on the same time and date indicated in the title.

6. If a title is based on patents, make sure that the areas covered are well within the area provided by law, as well existing regulation. The land under the patent should also be in the jurisdiction of the DENR and DAR field office that issued the patent. If not, the patent will be considered null and void.

7. Test the red seal and the red printed words “Owner’s Duplicate” by slightly wetting them. In an authentic form, the seal and the words will not blot or stain.

8. Hold the title up against the light and see if it has an NLTDRA (National Land Title and Deeds Registration Administration) or LRA (Land Registration Authority) watermark. Also, official judicial forms use paper that is 50% chemical wood pulp and 50% cotton, while fake titles are usually printed on cartolina or other inferior material.

A real estate investment is a very big (and very costly) transaction, so make sure that you safeguard yourself against people who might try to deceive you. Be vigilant in checking property titles, and report fraudulent dealings to the LRA and other related government offices.

Refinancing a Mortgage Loan

Mon, 14 May 2012 02:33:10 GMT

Buying a house for sale is a dream come true for most people. However, this dream can easily go south due to unforeseen financial problems. If you can’t afford to pay your mortgage, your house can go into foreclosure unless you find a way to get out from under your debt. One way that you can save your home is through a home refinancing.

Refinancing is when you get a new mortgage loan to replace your first one. Some people apply for a home refinancing to change the term of their mortgage; they either want to lengthen their loan to lower they monthly payments, or shorten their term to pay off their loan faster. Here are the steps involved in getting a home refinancing.

1. Figure out the amount that you need to borrow based on the balance that you still owe on your mortgage. Also, determine if you want to refinance with a bank or with another lending company. Note that banks charge annual interest rates ranging between 7% and 9%, while other lenders may charge more.

2. Have a look at your current mortgage agreement and see if you are required to pay a penalty should you change mortgages before reaching a certain period of time. Find out how much the penalty will be, as this can affect your decision to refinance your loan.

3. Choose between refinancing with your current lender, or going to a different one. If you stay with your current lender, ask them for a quotation for your new mortgage, as well as the additional costs of refinancing, such as administration charges. If you want to go with a new lender, contact several institutions and compare their terms, rates and conditions.

4. Complete the requirements that your new lender is requiring and mail them in, including the added fees. Keep in mind that if you choose to refinance with a different lender, your house may undergo a new home appraisal.

5. Once your application has been approved, you will receive a package containing documents that you need to sign so that your loan processing will be completed. Be sure to read the documents thoroughly before signing them and sending them back to the lender for final processing.

Remember that you are getting a home refinancing to make your monthly mortgage payments easier to manage. Some people get refinancing to have some available money to make another large purchase, such as a car, but be wary that something like this can put you in even bigger debt if you’re not careful.

Grounds for Real Estate Broker License Revocation

Fri, 11 May 2012 10:01:23 GMT

A Philippine real estate broker has the responsibility of helping his clients buy or sell a home or any real estate property, and is therefore bound by ethics and obedience to the law. However, there are those who insist on carrying out their work in deceitful ways, with no regard to the law, his clients, his co-workers and his organization. If you want to be a good broker, these are the practices that you should avoid.

Concerning the government

· Obtaining a broker’s license through fraudulent means that would otherwise disqualify him

· Working with an unlicensed real estate practitioner by agreeing to give, share or rebate a commission

· Printing signboards, letterheads, public announcements and ads that do not include his license number

· Actions that would prove dishonesty and incompetence in his part

· Blatant disregard for the law and the regulations regarding licensing

Concerning the public

· Creating advertisements that are misleading in any way

· Using intimidation, violence and other deceitful means of procuring consent for a real estate transaction

· Neglecting to remit money fifteen days after it was collected in a trust

· Receiving money from his principal, and then failing to treat it as a trust account

· Being convicted of a crime related to the unlawful conversion of a property or a fund

· Failing or neglecting to disclose to the person the broker is dealing with any material data or fact regarding a property transaction

· Failing to get a principal’s authority prior to advertising or selling their property

· Tolerating a conflict of interest between the licensee and his client

Concerning a co-broker

· Urging another broker to violate his contract in order to substitute a new contract in its place

Concerning his association

· Referring to himself as a Realtor when he is a member that is not in good standing with the association that is legally allowed to use the patented name

· Using a name, logo or insignia of an association of which he is not a part

Being an ethical and trustworthy real estate broker is not only a reflection of you as a person; it also gives value to the efforts of the government and other brokers in the real estate industry. Most of all, it is an assurance to clients that their business will be handled by people they can trust to do things right.

Why Should Real Estate Agents Use Blogs?

Fri, 11 May 2012 09:48:55 GMT

Various companies have proven time and again how important online presence is in helping their businesses grow. Because most people spend much of their time online communicating with each other and doing research, the internet is a goldmine for potential clients.

Philippine real estate agents should take advantage of this fact if they want their business to grow, and blogging is one of the most effective ways that they can do this. If you have a knack for the written word, here are some ways that blogging can help you reach a wider audience and possibly attract new clients.

1. Blogging can be a teaching tool. Not all people are experts when it comes to real estate dealings, which is why they do a lot of research before pushing through with a transaction. By writing about relevant topics like the real estate market or applying for a mortgage, you are arming them with information that they can use, whether they are putting up a house for sale, or looking for one to buy.

2. Blogging can keep you in touch. If you want your clients to be loyal, you need to be in constant communication with them, and blogging will help you do just that. Using social media like Facebook can help, but blogging will give you an opportunity to really expound on things like real estate developments and homes that are being sold, and will allow you to answer their questions in detail.

3. Blogging can help you market to a specific audience. Writing articles with topics that are targeted to a specific group of people will ensure that you are keeping your clients and your readers engaged. Also, blogging allows you to address specific scenarios that your audience might present, and if other people are experiencing a similar issue, they will find your answer valuable as well.

4. Blogging can improve your brand. We’ve all heard the phrase “content is king”, and there is a good reason why this has become an adage to live by. Offering relevant, detailed and timely content will give people the impression that your company is one that they can trust to take care of them. Not only will this keep them loyal to you; it can also increase the chance that they will recommend you to friends and family who are looking for help in buying or selling their house.

It will take some time before you see a surge in your audience, and in your client base, for that matter, so be prepared to spend a lot of time and effort on your blog. This tactic may take a while to hold, but you will experience lasting rewards if you keep at it.
