""Kim came highly recommended to us by a member of our church. We were looking for our first home and needed a realtor who could patiently navigate us through the searching and buying process. Kim highly exceeded our expectations. We found her to be attentive to our particular circumstances, never pressuring us to make a decision that we were not comfortable with. Kim was accessible and prompt in returning our phone calls. She worked hard to find the right home for us and we could't be happier with our purchase.

What is a reasonable offer?

Kim Foster answered:
Hi Andrea,
Are you working with a buyer boker who can accuratley comp this home for you? If not I live about 20 min from there and could help you in the correct offer price and help negotiate the offer on your behalf as a buyer's agent. If you go through the agent that is listing the house you will not have separate representation ,that agent is reprsenting the bank. Please visit my website at http://www.kimfosterrealtor.com . If you would like my help Please call me at 734-678-7839.

Kim

Is there a posiblility to rent with option to buy?

Kim Foster answered:
Hi Amy,
Do you want to do a rent with an option because of credit concerns or is it because you feel the market has not hit the bottom? I just helped a lady that was told by one lender that she had to work on her credit for the next 6 months before she could buy a home. I referred her to a local lender that was able to approve her on a FHA loan and she has an accepted offer on house and we will close in December. Please give me a call so we can talk. If you are wanting to rent because of market conditions I can help you find a place to rent and see if they would consider an option at this time. I look forward to speaking with you. My direct number is 734-678-7839.

Kim Foster answered:
Hi Christina,
If you decide to purchase this home as a primary residence and close after December 1st 2008, you can ask to have the tax prorations waived and then you would not be resposible for the higher tax base if this property is nonhomestead. You can reach me at 734-678-7839 if you would like assistance in purchasing this home or would like to see other homes in this price range with lower taxes.

Kim Foster answered:
Hi Mitch,
The best way is to be working with a great buyer's agent in the area that specializes in foreclosed properties.
They can send you complete details including the address on all the forclosures plus alert you when new ones come up. I can refer you to an agent in the area that can help you if you can send me some more details on what exactly you are looking for.
