All good and important info. I have been in title insurance for 30 years and your example would not be covered. However never purchase a property of any kind without an owners title insurance policy that covers you. Many believe since their lender is getting a lenders policy they too will be covered, no you will not. Many think if property is vacant land they don't need it, they do. If you aren't clear on what title insurance is speak with your title company directly they will be happy to answer all of your questions. Don't ask those questions of your realtor, your lender, your mortgage broker but the title company directly in odered to get accurate information.
Wayne, The "As Is" info you provided will be SUPER helpful for a lot of people who had no idea that they could still have an inspection even though it was selling in "As Is" - Sam
Inspection, a survey, get a copy of the survey Inspect well and the septic you need a letter saying it is working. You need that for the utility company. You need a title policy
Thanks Wayne . I appreciate you sharing your knowledge . As the father of a recent bride , I definitely took your advice ! I put pen to paper and wrote everything down . Should the day come when the kids are ready to buy their first house , I think we will be much more informed . Thank you sir .
I'm in Florida, and I was very interested in a house. I asked my REA if the house was in a flood zone. He said he was not required by Florida law to disclose that information. The house was in a flood zone, and I didn't buy it. ...YOU'RE FIRED! 😂
@@paratroopergirl4064 my broker will not allow me to show a flood zone property without having the client signing a document acknowledging they agree to see flood zone.
9:34 here's where I'll disagree or add to the conversation... *Do not worry about someone suing you for specific performance* on a real estate contract. Real estate agents and sellers will try to threaten you with this, and pressure you to close on a property. If a seller for example was withholding mineral rights even though it wasn't mentioned in the purchase contract, it could be argued that they had an intent to deceive on the land sale. If they do attempt to sue you for specific performance, the sale of the property is put on hold and hung up for however long it takes to be decided in the courts (which could actually be a few years). They're basically shooting themselves in the foot trying to get money from you for backing out of the contract. While contracts are important in real estate, they're often not worth the paper they're written on...
No. It's not that simple or straightforward. That process takes years and involves many many public hearings. It's the US govt that determines flood zones
Are there any good Home Warranty companies? We have had American Home Shield for about 15 years. At first they were great, but they keep getting worse and worse. Now they are terrible, and the contractors they send are terrible as well. The contractors have damaged our house, multiple times, and neither AHS nor the contractor would fix it. The contractors also will always find something extra that needs to be done, which AHS won’t cover, and is outrageously expensive. Do not ever get American Home shield, it is a scam.
Yes, inspect an as is property. A seller that doesn't allow an inspection may have liability if they know or should know something that they should have disclosed. As far as surveys, many properties that are older than 30 years, many counties didn't require property surveys to be recorded in their counties and were not recorded if they were done.
Wayne I want to know how YOU can NOT 🚫 pay PROPERTY TAX. 🤔 What's the structure to set that up?? Also what's the best way to REMOVE or reduce the PROPERTY TAXES when buying a house sale. Let's say it's selling for $2 million dollars 💰 I offered $1.3 million for the house. THEN do a side deal with an INVOICE for $800,000 for all the furniture. The problem of course is the real estate COMMISSIONS that I believe YOU have to work out on the side as well. Therefore in the TAX ROLL records the house is now VALUED at $1.3 million because that was the SELLING price. Have you ever done a deal like that??? What would YOU recommend. ✅ I also heard that YOU do not have to pay PROPERTY TAX especially if it's 30,000 to $40,00 per year if you BUY it under a NON-PROFIT company PLEASE explain. Thanks 😀🦜 Alan Florida
Most counties/ parishes offer a homestead exemption for your primary residence, and disabled vets and seniors can freeze their taxes (so they don't increase), but I don't know a way to avoid property taxes completely
My first time hearing you Wayne and I’ve subscribed to your channel. Some great tips and even though a lot of this I knew but I learned a lot of new things as well. Thank you so much and God bless you too. 😊🙏
I bought an old house that had an oil run boiler, but they also had a wood fired boiler attached. Did inspection on close, found that they took out the wood fired boiler. I didn't think they could take out something like that.
Wayne, my neighbor bought a 3B2B residential home and is making it into 3 seperate apartments. He did all the work himself, added walls, a kitchen, etc with no permits. What kinds of legal problems is he facing going forward? Bank that holds mortgage? Homeowners insurance? Etc…
@@sophiewallace8662 agreed, but it kind of is when there’s 6 cars in the street, 2 of which are continuously parked in front of my front yard and 1 directly across from my driveway so that everytime I try to back out I hafta try not to hit any of them. And, BTW I LIKE my neighbor and don’t want him to get in trouble where he gets sued by a renter bcuz something happens that was not done w/proper permits to begin with.
I recently sold my condo for $400k and i want to invest the money in the stock market. However, it appears the market is at an all-time high. Should I invest elsewhere or wait for a market correction?
The stock market is risky But staying on the sidelines is riskier. Missing the next bull run will be far more costly to your long-term wealth than getting in at the "right price". Consult a financial advisor if you're unsure how to proceed.
You're right, I and a few Neighbours in Bel-Air Area work with an advisor who prefers we DCA across other prospective sectors. Instead of a lump sum purchase, Following this, my portfolio grew 37% in the last quarter
Mind if I look up your advisor please? I've worked in real estate for over 25 years and have neglected a major stock portfolio. This served me well when I was flipping and renting houses, however I need a different plan now

I stumbled upon this video. Would be helpful if you clarified where you are. Some things I can say from past experience are not the same depending on the state/county. However alot of good general info.
One more thing to add which may be rare but never would I ever buy a historic home. You will be bled dry fixing it up if the city is involved. Also you should do your own inspection as much as possible before the inspector you hired looks at the property. Do not use an inspector that the real estate agent recommended. They work in cahoots and overlook serious issues. The inspector should provide photos of roof trusses, tiles, shingles and whatever you requested. Use a thermal imaging unit and ask if he will check for leaks.
If you adjust your playback to 75, a slower rate, Wayne sounds normal and is easier to listen to. No offense, Wayne, but you have a rapid speech pattern. Thank you for all the info!
Great info. I just had an inspection done on a potential rental property. All the system including the roof are out dated. The HVAC is 15 years old but it still works. It has a tenant paying $1,000. Asking was $95k. I’m purchasing it for $90k. My concern is this may begin to break down like the HVAC, water heater, plumbing etc. The owners purchased the home for $61k. Last month and didn’t upgrade anything. I’m not sure if I should take a chance on this property or not. What do you think? It’s right at market value.
Great content! Thanks for sharing. I'm look at a few properties including raw land. Do you have a reccomended broker to work with in the Central Arkansas area?

First minute looking at those old aluminum framed single pane glass windows encased in brick. No way, never mind, all the other out of date and code safety issues.
Full disclosure: I'm not (and never have been) on an HOA board in any capacity. I have no income ties to any HOA - and also never have had income ties. However I do live in an HOA. Single family home, in a community with 1100 homes & townhomes. The HOA takes care of the snow plowing of the common area sidewalks in the entire neighborhood. It pays for the electricity of the street lights. It maintains all the lawns and playground equipment in the 3 main parks and numerous small green areas. It does maintenance (landscaping of flower beds, repairs of sprinkler systems for common areas, etc.) It also maintains exterior perimeter and common area fencing. I do not live in a part where my property touches any of the fencing maintained by the HOA, so I'm responsible for all my fencing. The HOA does no maintenance of my property whatsoever. It is all up to me. My HOA simply polices the neighborhood to enforce owners keep their properties up to community standards. We don't want any fluorescent painted properties. 2-ft tall weeds growing in the front yard. Christmas lights up all year. Broken down cars sitting in someone's lawn. Properties with half the paint peeling off. Junk yards in someone's backyard that are visible 5-ft above the fence. Because the HOA does very little work for us, they charge very little. My dues are $80 each quarter. About $30 of that goes to escrow for perimeter fence replacement every 20-25 years. Are HOAs perfect? Hell no. Is leaving a neighborhood up to the care that each individual homeowner/tenant would do on their own without enforcement perfect? Hell no. If you are ok with living next to the junkyard, falling apart, broken down cars on the front lawn, busted windows boarded up, 2-ft tall weeds instead of a front lawn, etc. home, good on you. But when it comes time to sell your house, you can look forward to buyers demanding $50,000-$100,000 price cuts because of that (even though your neighbor's issues are not your fault). Some HOAs are are intrusive, run by nothing but Karens. You can find countless videos of them on UA-cam. But some aren't bad. I'm fortunate enough that I live in one that is not bad. I would not want to live without an HOA. In my state, all new build communities are required to have an HOA. It has been like this for at least 35 years. We've been in our house for nearly 30 years.
how long is the warranty for for 800? you just said the condesser was about 900 so it is a wash and even if seller pays you could of got that money so buyer is paying.
Hey , you should 100% try owner financed land. Just google that . Landwatch, land search I think has them. You can pay monthly . No background checks . Honest information for ya ! Hope that helps
Despite all the financial struggles I and my family faced, everything is finally falling into place! $47,000 weekly profit and riches I'll always praise the Lord

Elizabeth R. nelsen is the kind of person one needs in his or her life! I got a home a good husband, and a beautiful daughter. Note: this is not a promotion but me trying to make a point that no natter what happens, always have faith and keep living!

Inspection, a survey, get a copy of the survey Inspect well and the septic you need a letter saying it is working. You need that for the utility company. You need a title policy
most mineral rights have been sold a long time ago. but if available get them!
Depends on what part of the country you're in.
Never have the seller fix your roof. Get your Own estimate and have them repair it.

Property Disclosures are not required in caveat emptor states.
Surveys can take 8 wks to 3 months to get done
It depends on the property
What company do you use for warranty?
