Do You Want a Horse Farm with Acreage
PALM CITYS HORSE TALK
I WANT A HORSE PROPERTY THAT HAS SPACE TO RIDE
How often do I hear "I want a horse farm that has acreage. I want to ride my horse.
Very few properties are available that have all the amenities that equestrian folks want. Most people want to be close to shopping and close to everyday convenience. I have a rare find in Palm City Farms that has all that one might want. It is beautiful, unique, has 15 acres and a beautiful equestrian center. A guest house provides plenty of space for visitors plus a two acre stocked lake full of large bass. More than that there is a large trail riding area just outside the gate and multiple trainers that are within walking distance of the farm. So, what else could one want. Oh yes, it is only 35 minutes from Wellington and located in upscale Palm City Farms, Palm City, Florida.

PALM CITYS HORSE TALK...BARNS and more BARNS ALL LOOK DIFFERENT
I specialize in equestrian properties and Town and Country living in South Florida. I have seen barns with chandeliers and barns that are suppose to be a barn......I think.... at least it had four walls. My job is so interesting because I do get to see so many varieties of properties in the equestrian world.

This barn is located in the equestrian community of Palm City Farms, Palm City, Florida. The design is Dutch Colonial and has an 1800 square foot barn guest house and eight stalls, center aisle for many purposes, feed room, tack, shop, laundry, bath, two birthing stalls, paddocks, gated, two acre stocked lake and more. The property has been appraised and has been reduced below its appraisal. For more information, Carol Barron-Cross, Broker, Sunflower Homes and Equestrian, LLC, Palm City, Florida can assist you.

If you sold a home in the past year, you may be able to reduce your income tax by the amount of your selling costs. These costs can include things such as repairs, title insurance, advertising expenses and broker’s fees. The IRS only allows the deduction of repair costs associated with selling if the repairs were made within 90 days of the sale. It’s also crucial that the repairs were made with the intent of improving your home’s marketability. Selling costs are deducted from your gain on the sale.

Could Banks Be Releasing Money to Home Buyer?
PALM CITYS HORSE TALK
Capital Economics expects the housing crisis to end this year, according to a report released Tuesday. One of the reasons: loosening credit.
The analytics firm notes the average credit score required to attain a mortgage loan is 700. While this is higher than scores required prior to the crisis, it is constant with requirements one year ago.
Additionally, a Fed Senior Loan Officer Survey found credit requirements in the fourth quarter were consistent with the past three quarters.
However, other market indicators point not just to a stabilization of mortgage lending standards, but also a loosening of credit availability.
Banks are now lending amounts up to 3.5 times borrower earnings. This is up from a low during the crisis of 3.2 times borrower earnings.
Banks are also loosening loan-to-value ratios (LTV), which Capital Economics denotes “the clearest sign yet of an improvement in mortgage credit conditions.”
In contrast to a low of 74 percent reached in mid-2010, banks are now lending at 82 percent LTV.
While credit conditions may have loosened slightly, some potential homebuyers are still struggling with credit requirements. In fact, Capital Economics points out that in November 8 percent of contract cancellations were the result of a potential buyer not qualifying for a loan.
Additionally, Capital Economics says “any improvement in credit conditions won’t be significant enough to generate actual house price gains,” and potential ramifications from the euro-zone pose a threat to future credit availability.
