Lease with option to purchase.


It would depend on the wording of the contract. We recommend you DO NOT pursue this type of transaction financing UNLESS you have a real estate attorney involved. This is a complex transaction and there are many ways for a consumer (Buyer) to be taken more...Posted 7 years ago

Is it normal for a real estate agent to charge potential client a showing service fee?


Hi, Willie. As you can see, this is not a typical fee imposed on Buyers from a Buyer's agent. However, Realtors are self-employed and typically can charge any fee they wish (typically at the guidance of their broker). The key is if you agree to do more...Posted 7 years ago

What is the Estimated Property Tax shown on HAR listings?


They are full tax bills without exemptions. That being said, the listing agent can change it so don't assume anything. I would double check with the county appraisal district and pull up the home's records. You will see the accessed value and the more...Posted 8 years ago
