The risks of investing in real estate

November 15th, 2011

It’s all about risk assessment.

This is especially true when it comes to property investment. Real estate investments have a long guarantee profits comfortable for many people … It is very tempting to do. Yet it is an investment that should not be done lightly. People should be aware of the facts surrounding this business more or less lucrative. It is much more than the potential that people often see, there are also bad investments

If you plan to invest in real estate, you must take precautions that will minimize your risk and exposure when you can. If you can not reduce the risk, be prepared for financial risks and be mentally prepared to accept a negative result.

Behind the Real Estate Investment There are several risks:

Risk 1 – loss of investment

When dealing with real estate, it is likely that you will lose the investment. If your investment is high and demand low, you may be dealt a devastating blow. Remember … losing their investment may be bad, but it is certainly not the meanest thing that goes wrong. This is not to prevent you from getting involved, it’s like a warning

When you renovate a house in Aquella you invested, you could lose much more during the time that you work especially if you are injured. Most homes do not have sufficient insurance coverage, whether homeowners or personal insurance, they did not have much time and money set aside to recover from a serious injury.

Risk 2 – risk exongènes

Remember that in real estate investment, the cost of the spell tend to occur. What kinds of things? Here are some options:

- Companies that go bankrupt – Natural Disasters – The economy collapses – The local market is crumbling – People change their minds – Accidents at work

Anyone of these things can lead to real consequences clearly catastrophic. As you can see, the above events are completely out of your control. Therefore, you must be prepared to risk their occurrence.

Alongside these risks, there is the risk of discovering flaws in the hbaitationn for want of a good diagnosis. Most investors tend to give up a good inspection and find out, often on the way, the plumbing of major damage or other problems. The repairs will cost money and these costs will be added on charges.

Once you have found the problem, you have two options:

- First, you can fix it yourself before putting the house on the market. – Second, you can reveal to potential buyers.

It is very important to discover these before buying the house, make a thorough inspection of the home that way you will discover any potential problems. It saves not only time but a lot of money.

Keep in mind that you should not let the two risks you from investing in this market. However, as an investor, you do not need to identify yourself these risks, but you’d better invest in a diagnostic pushed before your purchase.

Benoist Appeared Housing = Missing

October 29th, 2011

Apart from that he has no doubt that knows Benoist appeared in the house? Probably not much, as his resume is dramatically blank on this. Symbolic of the utter contempt in respect of such an important issue, the Ministry of Housing disappears in favor of a single Secretary of State for housing and urban planning.

Evidence of neglect of the new minister for his new toy? Black Thursday was fun to type the words “housing” and “urban” on the search engine site Benoist Appeared. Surprising result. Here the only found on the site of the new minister: “Appeared Benoist named Secretary of State for Housing and Urban Development” !

Want more evidence? Bill Boutin on housing has been discussed several days in the National Assembly, during which first appeared Benoist has not opened his mouth once … Honestly, that’s about as serious as if we all called Strip Black Thursday the Department of Defense, right?

So a quarter of a victory tonight to Black Thursday, which was released on champagne seconds by learning going on holiday with Christine Boutin. The president had been led to expect that it would suffer “no eviction without rehousing” . But just as the promise of Ms. Boutin to the inadequately housed under the threat of bailiffs, that promise has been betrayed.

Black Thursday Christine Boutin had sung to “When do you go on vacation?” , we now know, 48 hours after the start of the summer, its time has come. That’s the only good news for the poor housing of the day …

What is the meaning of the Ministerial transfer window? If Mr. Appeared knows certainly not what he will do in the Secretary of State, Black Thursday was his idea. Is there appeared to run Sarkozy philosophy on housing. Moreover, the good little soldier Sarkozyism no secret that he intended only to obey without making waves. When a journalist asked him “You are rarely critical vis-à-vis the government … “ The young MP also responded: “Either we godillot or we secessionist” .

September 29th, 2011

If infract the building regulations committed by a tenant, the owner is responsible to the landlord Egarter the union of these offenses.

The Court of Appeal of Paris, the 23rd chamber 26 February 2009, Juris-Data No. 2009-376258, reiterated this principle for allocating work areas and schedules, made by the tenant without the authorization of the General Assembly and this, although the owner, himself, has not allowed the tenant to achieve them.

Otherwise, his own responsibility may be incurred in respect of the union.

Thus, it was found that the owner lessor is liable to the condominium or co-owners because of noise and immoral behavior of his tenant, or the size of the common abuse by him.
It is personally liable for damage done to common areas, degradation attributable to the tenant.
It must therefore bear the cost of repairs and repair disorders of disturbance suffered by the condominium.

It is then up to the owner lessor to intervene to stop the violations of building regulations made by the tenant.

In case of inaction of the owner lessor, the condominium corporation are two possible procedures:

1) to consider a subpoena against the owner-lessor, on the basis of contractual liability in order to obtain his conviction to stop the unrest, as required under penalty, and payment of damages for the injury suffered by the condominium;

2) Consider an action directly against the tenant, on the basis of liability in tort.
It is settled law that tenants must, as well as their donors, abide as the requirements of building regulations that ‘the decisions adopted by the condominium corporation in general meeting about the terms of enjoyment of the common.

Case law also recognizes a direct action of the condominium corporation (under the assumption of a lack of donor co-owner of direct action against the tenant) against the tenant, to terminate its lease, through the derivative action covered by Article 1166 of the Civil Code . However, to be admissible, such action must meet certain conditions. Therefore, should us seek advice from a lawyer.

Housing: the idea of a diagnostic fizzled Internet

July 5th, 2011

A few months ago, a senator, Hervé Maurey, proposed the establishment of an Internet diagnosis mandatory when selling a property. That means any purchases can be informed before buying a home on his “network connection to the Internet.”
   The answer is a few days ago fell from the lips of Secretary of State for Housing: it is not.
For Benoist Appeared, “the quality of electronic communications lines is not intrinsic but depends on housing, among other things, the length of the line between accommodation and the telephone.”
  No question, therefore, to access to electronic communications services at the same level as the safety of electrical installation, hunting to asbestos or energy performance.
  The government also confronts prospective homeowners to electronic communications operators that offer, said the secretary of state, “eligibility tests that allow free, from the telephone number of the owner to know the Internet services available “.
