<p>Just wanted to clarify in regards to the extension of the tax credit. it is not officially approved yet but it looks promising. Yesterday the U.S. House of Representatives overwhelmingly approved an extension to 9/30. Of course, however, the Senate must still approve the measure before President Barack Obama can sign it into law. Of course thousands of settlements may not be completed by Wednesday because settlement offices are slammed with buyers trying to close on transactions by the end of this month in order to receive the funds.</p>
<p>Lets hope the Senate makes a wise decision. I will keep you all posted.</p>
<h2><strong><em><span style="text-decoration: underline"><span style="color: #ff0000">JUST IN</span></span></em> &#8211; Of  DOW JONES NEWSWIRES </strong></h2>
<p>WASHINGTON (Dow Jones)&#8211;The  Senate Wednesday approved more time for homebuyers seeking to claim a  federal tax credit, but tabled a six-month extension of jobless  benefits.</p>
<p>The homebuyer measure would help only those that  entered into binding contracts before April 30. It would give such  homebuyers until Sept. 30 to close the sale. Under current law, they  would have had to close by today to be eligible for tax credits.</p>
<p>It passed the Senate by unanimous voice vote. President Barack Obama  is expected to sign the homebuyer measure, which the House passed  earlier this week.</p>

<p>When Juan and his wife Rita decided to buy in Weston, they were looking for a deal!  Like everyone else, they wanted to capitalize on a short sale or foreclosure and do so in a timely manner.  Typically, distressed deals take an inordinate amount of time, especially short sales because of the 3d party (lender) requirements, verifications, BPOs and ultimately approval by the sellers lender that the shortfall amount will be accepted.  <em>*** this deal got done in 60 days!***</em></p>
<p><em>&#8220;I commend you and your team for a job well done. This was a tough deal and at the end all your efforts to close paid off . Thank you.&#8221; (comment from happy Buyer, Juan Naranjo standing next to &#8220;EWM Guys&#8221; team member James San Martin)</em></p>
<p><strong><em>We have the tools, technology, law</em> and business backgrounds and above all else, the attitude to get you the best deals out there.  Call or <a href="/contact" target="_blank">contact us</a> to find out what we can do for you!</strong></p>

<h3>The Gap Between Monthly Rents and Mortgage Payments is MINIMAL!</h3>
<p>Years of falling home prices coupled with extremely low interest rates have arguably created one of the best Buyer&#8217;s markets ever (if you can qualify for a loan from a a lender who will actually lend money).</p>
<h3>Tough<span id="more-735"></span> Lending Standards &amp; Unemployment</h3>
<p>Traditional lending standards have become the norm as bank and lending institutions stay routinely averse to risk.  And unemployment hovers around 10 percent.  These statistics wouldn&#8217;t suggest opportunity, but with depressed prices, Federal tax incentive programs and an abundance of distressed properties on the market, it really is a great time to buy.</p>
<h3>The Analysis of 45 Metro Areas</h3>
<p>Marcus &amp; Millichap Real Estate Investment Services conducted an extensive study in an effort to determine the real difference between monthly rents and mortgage payments.  The difference: $264, which, according to the study, is negligible and lower then the price difference of 1993.  The study was based upon:</p>
<p>[1] a 10% down payment;</p>
<p>[2] a 30-year fixed mortgage at 5.07%;</p>
<p>[3] buyer paid for <a id="aptureLink_7YMRiGrXs1" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lenders%20mortgage%20insurance">PMI.<br />
</a></p>
<p>Obviously, geography plays a role and pricier markets like NYC still show a wide gap between renting and buying, but nationally speaking the study suggests a very revealing phenomenon, namely, that those who never EVER thought about buying are now beginning to wonder &#8230; f the cliche &#8230; all that talk about the American Dream, HOME OWNERSHIP, can possibly be a reality.</p>
<p><strong>The Truth.  The EWM Guys can find you a home that you can call &#8220;YOUR OWN&#8221;.  Call or <a href="mailto:ewmguys@gmail.com" target="_blank">contact us</a> today and put us to work.  We will make the dream a reality and you&#8217;ll be sitting by your pool celebrating by summer!</strong></p>
