			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1><span><a href="http://thebrooksteamaz.com/files/2011/11/Iamstevebrooks-homes-in-glendale.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-5744" src="http://thebrooksteamaz.com/files/2011/11/Iamstevebrooks-homes-in-glendale-235x300.jpg" alt="homes in glendale" width="235" height="300" /></a> <strong>H<a>omes for sale in Glendale</a></strong></span></h1>
<p><span>If your looking to purchase homes in Glendale Arizona. Better yet any home here in the valley of the sun. The Lending Tree has a loan which gives you 2.5% to help with your purchase if you qualify. </span></p>
<p><span>This is on an FHA  loan, so that means you&#8217;ll just need to come up with 1%. The FHA limit on single family homes in metropolitan </span> Phoenix area is $271,050. This means that all you&#8217;d need is $2710.50 for your down payment. Let me tell you there are a lot of beautiful you can find out here at this price and lower.</p>
<p>With FHA some lenders go as low as 580 credit score. With VA you can buy with zero down . There are some homes for sale in Glendale, but they move fast.You can <a>find foreclosed homes and get some great deals. </a></p>
<p><a>If you want a list of these homes just let us know and we&#8217;ll gladly supply for you. Most people(not you) believe that the home prices will get lower. This could be true, but being a licensed realtor that is in the field daily I don&#8217;t think so.</a></p>
<h2><a>Looking for houses</a></h2>
<p>There is a shortage of homes listed in the market for sale. This means that it&#8217;s a sellers market again. You missed the boat to purchase  homes in Glendale Arizona and some cities in the valley for 20% below the asking price. If you are looking for  houses like this. Where you can offer this far less then the asking price you need to look at half a  million dollar and up homes.</p>
<p>Even tho it&#8217;s a sellers market with the interest rates still at all time lows. The 1% down loan the lending is offering buying a home now is still cheaper than paying rent. You can still have the american dream and become a homeowner. If you need a  house for rent in Glendale AZ. The Brooks Team of AZ can help you with this.</p>
<p>But we would really like to help you become a homeowner. We are in the people helping business and will always do whats best for you the renters, buyers and sellers.

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>I hear this all the time &#8220;what should I offer&#8221;, I tell my <strong>buyers </strong>to offer their highest and best offer if they want to <strong>buy</strong> a <strong>house</strong>.  Recently I had a client that saw a <strong>house</strong> and it had all the things in a new <strong>home</strong> they wanted and need.  I advised my client that the <strong>house</strong> had an <strong>offer</strong> and was at the counter stage of the <strong>offer</strong>.  I explained to my client that if you to buy this house we need to put an <strong>offer</strong> in tonight before the  owner counter come back.  Well my <strong>buyers</strong> wanted to go <strong>home</strong> and think about the <strong>offer</strong> never called me back that night.  The next day their <strong>dream</strong> <strong>home</strong> was in pending status under contract.  My clients lost out on their <strong>dream</strong> <strong>house</strong>, I took them out to view other <strong>homes</strong> but that <strong>dream</strong> <strong>house</strong> was always on their minds.  My client now is hoping the <strong>dream</strong> <strong>house  </strong>contract will fall out of contract but this <strong>house</strong> is a regular sale.   Some good advice for all <strong>buyers</strong>, if you see a <strong>house</strong> you like put an <strong>offer</strong> in immediately, <strong>dream</strong> <strong>homes</strong> don&#8217;t last long on the <strong>market</strong>.  When <strong>buyers</strong> go out with their <strong>agents</strong> have all your necessary documents ready to go such as your earnest money check and proof of funds.  <strong>Signing</strong> an <strong>offer</strong> is made so easy now  for <strong>buyers</strong>, you don&#8217;t have print your <strong>offer  </strong>just sign them online with <strong>esign</strong>.  Most <strong>realtors</strong> want to make your transaction as smooth as possible.  So next time you are out with your <strong>realtor</strong> and see your <strong>dream</strong> <strong>house</strong>, put an <strong>offer</strong> in right away going <strong>home</strong> to think about your <strong>dream</strong> <strong>house</strong> will cause you to lose out.  If a buyer <strong>offer</strong> their <strong>highest</strong> and best <strong>offer</strong>, you most likely with get your <strong>dream</strong> <strong>house</strong>.</p>

We&#8217;ll help you find the lender to get you qualified, the home of <a href="http://thebrooksteamaz.com/wp-content/blogs.dir/74/files/2011/07/th_ist2_5410463-here-are-your-keys1.jpg"><img src="http://thebrooksteamaz.com/wp-content/blogs.dir/74/files/2011/07/th_ist2_5410463-here-are-your-keys1-107x150.jpg" alt="" width="107" height="150" /></a>your dreams and will be handing over the keys to that home for your enjoyment.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I believe that every <a title="Home Buyer Advisory-" href="http://www.aaronline.com/documents/buy_advis.pdf" target="_blank">home buyer </a>should have a representative on their side working for them.  So when someone  tells me they are thinking of buying their first home, the 1st  thing I like to do is set up a face to face meeting with them. Usually buyers have lots of questions and all are of their questions are relevant.  It is scary to buy a home for the first time and most people do not know where to start.  Such as getting a<a title="A loan officer that you can count on!!" href="http://www.TheStewartTeam.net"> loan</a>, finding an inspector or getting a<a title="In House Home Warranty" href="http://www.inhousewarranty.com/" target="_blank"> home warranty</a>.  I can help them and I really enjoy being able to answer the most feared questions about the homebuying experience and put their minds at ease.  I do participate in the process with my clients- from start to finish.  I let them know that they can count on me to be a part of one of the biggest investments of their lives.  One of the most asked questions I get is HOW DO I PAY YOU?  I am very happy to tell them that they do not pay me for my services and that it is a part of the sellers closing costs,  therefore, it is included.  Usually it is a part of a co broke that the sellers agent offers to a buyers agent for bringing a qualified buyer to close on a property.  If a buyer wants to buy a <a title="For Sale by Owner or FSBO" href="http://justsoldaz.com/2011/05/18/for-sale-by-owner-or-fsbo/" target="_blank">FOR SALE BY OWNER</a>,  then I will negotiate my commission with the seller, working as the <a title="Jami Andrews, eXp Realty" href="http://www.justsoldaz.com/" target="_blank">buyers representative</a>.   I can&#8217;t express enough the importance of having a professional, experienced real estate agent represent you on your side of the transaction.  I know and understand the real estate market and I listen to my clients.  I want to be a reliable source and will work diligently and with integrity.  If you or anyone you know could benefit from my services please have them call me.   Jami Andrews, Buyer Representative eXp Realty 623-341-5084 <a href="http://www.JustSoldAZ.com">www.JustSoldAZ.com</a></p>

<p>The fountain was built in 1970, by <a title="Robert P. McCulloch" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_P._McCulloch">Robert P. McCulloch</a>, the year before the reconstruction of the <a title="London Bridge (Lake Havasu City)" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/London_Bridge_%28Lake_Havasu_City%29">London Bridge</a> in <a title="Lake Havasu City" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lake_Havasu_City">Lake Havasu City</a>,  another of McCulloch&#8217;s projects. The fountain sprays water for about 15  minutes every hour between 9am and 9pm. The plume rises from a concrete  water-lily sculpture in the center of a large man-made lake. The  fountain, driven by three 600 horsepower (450 kW) turbine pumps, sprays  water at a rate of 7000 gallons per minute through an 18-inch nozzle.  With all three pumps and under ideal conditions, the fountain reaches  560 feet (170 m) in height though in normal operation only two of the pumps are used, with a  fountain height of around 300 feet (91 m) feet. When built, it was the  world&#8217;s tallest fountain and held that record for over a decade.</p>

<p>I shot this beautiful sunset from the east side of Fountain Park. It was  in early January and the 65 degree evening was perfect for a walk.  Walking around the Fountain is one of our towns favorite past time. It&#8217;s  a great way to meet some of our friendly residents and winter guests.  They&#8217;re easy to tell apart. Residents will be wearing a light jacket and  visitors will be in shorts and a T shirt. We get a kick out of them  wearing a swim suit in January trying to get a tan.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve live in Fountain Hills since 1973 when I moved here from Michigan, never to return.</p>
