History of Incline Village, Nevada
Beginning with the establishment of its Post Office in 1884, Incline Village has a uniquely intriguing history. The village was named for the Sierra Nevada Wood and Lumber Company’s incline railway.
The SNW&L line served mining operations during the Comstock Lode boom of the 1800s. The mines needed timber, and the woods around Lake Tahoe had plenty. The lumber company felled the trees, placed them on the railway, and transported them up 1400 feet. From there, the logs were dropped by flume and a 3000-foot tunnel to Carson City.
Thus, Incline Village burst into Nevadan history dramatically. The story does not end there. George Whittell purchased this land from the lumber companies. From 1938-1959, Whittell broke up this land into small parcels and went mostly to people who wanted to build homes along the lake, but some corporations also bought the property.
Near the end of this time, in the mid-50s, Whittell sold 9,000 acres of land to investors who turned a neat 500 percent profit by selling it to the Crystal Bay Development Company. By 1968, the land had been divided up into 1,700 lots where over 3,000 homes were built. Today, many people are moving to and living in Incline Village for reasons that range from tax advantages to its thriving eclectic culture.

History of Lake Tahoe, Nevada
Lake Tahoe is steeped in history. The Lake itself formed millions of years ago as part of the Lake Tahoe Basin. It was inhabited by Indigenous people for many years. The first European-American to see the lake was <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_C._Fr%C3%A9mont" title="John C. Frémont" target="_blank">Lt. John C. Fremont</a> during his second exploratory exhibition in 1844.
Up until 1945, Lake Tahoe was actually named Lake Bigler, despite being known to locals and cited on surveys as Lake Tahoe. The area surrounding Lake Tahoe, on the Nevada side, was originally a transportation hub for surrounding mining and logging industries. At this point, it was already recognized as a vacation destination for nearby Virginia City residents in the mid-1800s.
During the first half of the 19th century, the area only contained a handful of vacation properties. Following the WWll population and building boom, there was a dramatic increase in development in the area. From 1960-1980 the population grew from 10,000 to over 50,000, and the summer months saw nearly 90,000. In 1980, development slowed down significantly due to controls on land use.
Stunning Neighborhoods in Lake Tahoe
Lake Tahoe is filled with neighborhoods and communities that are dotted along the shores and set throughout the mountainside. A mix of full-time residents and vacation homeowners, Lake Tahoe offers a wide range of real estate.

History of Reno, NV
Reno’s history begins before the town was established as a town, when the area was used as the main crossing point of the Truckee River, which flows west to east from Lake Tahoe to Pyramid Lake. The pass was used frequently as travelers traversed to the California gold rush of the late 1840s and ‘50s. This river crossing became instrumental in the creation of Reno’s mining and agriculture trade. As the economy became established, Reno was made an official town in 1868.
The addition of the Central Pacific Railroad connection to the Union Pacific Railroad (forming the First Transcontinental Railroad) aided in the city’s ever-growing economy. Reno continued to grow and prosper as a business and agricultural center throughout the late 1800s.
In 1926, the Reno Arch was erected and was meant to promote the Transcontinental Highways Exposition of 1927. Reno City Council decided to keep the arch as a permanent downtown gateway and prompted the citizens to come up with a slogan to stamp onto the giant arch. G.A. Burns of Sacramento came up with the prize-winning slogan of “Reno, the Biggest Little City in the World” and the slogan has stuck over the decades.
When the state of Nevada legalized open gambling in 1931, Reno jumped on board with the opening of what they hoped would become prosperous casinos. They took a leap, and it paid off immensely. The Bank Club, one of the first casinos opened in Reno, became the state’s largest employer and one of the largest casinos in the world. This club, along with places such as The Palace, launched Reno to the top of the gambling tourism industry where they have stayed for many, many years.
<img src="https://assets.site-static.com/userfiles/1385/image/nevada_real_estate_group_reno_nv_.jpg" width="300" height="300" alt="reno nv moving to and living in guide nevada real estate group" style="margin: 10px; float: right;" />Over the years, Reno expanded from its primary tourism attraction of casinos and ventured into the arts and culture world. Reno became the place to go for budding artists and performers. The city was big enough to create an art scene, but not so big that the “little guys” just starting out their careers were overshadowed. The combination of the casinos and the artistic experimentation has shot Reno into a hub of unique experiences and attractions.

The first English American settler to arrive in what is now known as Eagle Valley was John C. Fremont. Fremont and his exploration party made their way to the area in January of 1843, at which time he named the river flowing through the valley Carson River. This was in honor of the mountain man, Kit Carson, who Fremont hired to accompany his part on their exploration.
Later, settlers named the area <a href="https://www.nevadarealestategroup.com/washoe-valley/">Washoe</a> in reference to the Washoe people who had inhabited the site before. The name is still used today as Carson City is located within Washoe County.
By 1851, a trading post was constructed, and the area became a popular stop for California-bound travelers. In 1858, Abraham Curry purchased the Eagle Station and renamed the settlement Carson City. Having the forethought that Carson City would one day serve as the <a href="https://www.nevadarealestategroup.com/carson-city/">Nevada state Capital</a>, Curry reserved a 10-acre plot of land in the center of town for the construction of a capital building.
A year later, gold was found in nearby Comstock Lode, which helped the growth and development of the city. Curry continued to construct buildings throughout town and, in 1859, built the Warm Springs Hotel.
Thanks to the persuasion of a Carson City lawyer, William Stewart, who escorted territorial governor James W. Nye from San Francisco to Nevada, the city was chosen as the territorial capital. The hotel was loaned out as a meeting space for the territorial Legislature and then converted into the territorial prison. Today, the building is still a part of the state prison.
Significant events over the years, such as wars, slowed the growth of Carson City. The city had excepted that it would never grow to big-city status and dubbed itself <a href="https://www.nevadarealestategroup.com/carson-city/">"America's smallest state capital”</a>.
In 1969 Carson City merged with Ormsby County to officially become the Consolidated Municipality of Carson City. Due to this merger, Carson City is now technically one of America’s largest state capitals, having city limits that encompass 146 square miles.
Presently, Carson City is a charming and lovely city that is home to beautiful parks, accessible amenities, family-friendly neighborhoods, tasty restaurants, varied shopping, and much more.

A Look at the Real Estate Market in Carson City
Real estate in Carson City, Nevada is varied; however, a large majority of homes for sale are <a href="https://www.nevadarealestategroup.com/property-search/results/?searchid=291055">single-family detached properties</a>. The city is home to a few <a href="https://www.nevadarealestategroup.com/property-search/results/?searchid=291056">condominium and townhome communities</a>; however, because of a restriction which was adopted by the town in 1991 - which stated no building within a designated area is allowed to surpass the capitol in height - there are few high rise buildings found in the city.
A family-friendly city, Carson City’s real estate is predominately spacious, single-family detached homes that offer between two and four bedrooms and two and three bathrooms. Many homes throughout the area are set on comfortably sized lots and have attached one- or two-car garages.

There are several new developments and subdivisions which have and continue to be built throughout the city. At one time, the majority of the city’s population lived in Eagle Valley, which was located along the eastern edge of the Carson Range, which is a branch of the Sierra Nevada.

The city was founded in 1904 and was originally named Harriman, after the railroad company president. The original purpose of the city was to replace Wadsworth as a means to facilitate the switching yard and provide a repair center for the Southern Pacific Railroad. Sparks grew with the railroad.
Sparks was a calm and quiet little city. Not much happened in the area for the first fifty years of its existence, other than the banging of boxcars, the clanging, hissing, and whistling of the trains squealing through the station, and the occasional rowdiness from the locals indulging in a drink or two at the local saloon.
The town grew at a slow, steady pace, up until the 1950s. When the neighboring <a href="https://www.nevadarealestategroup.com/reno/">Reno</a> saw its postwar building boom, overflow allowed Sparks to grow in popularity. Subdivision began popping up all over the city. The humble railroad town was suddenly adding house after house to the region, accommodating the growing demand of the higher population. Sparks continued to grow over the next dozen years and by the 1970s, Sparks took a turn in an unexpected direction. The traditional family farms that littered the land transformed into lowrise warehouses, small manufacturing plants, and light industry, producing a grid of new streets.
Sparks has continued to grow and change over the last few decades. The mostly residential city has become a popular option for those wanting to steer clear of the busier Reno area, yet still enjoy the same type of atmosphere as the big little city next door. John Ascuaga has provided Sparks with its first skyscraper, moving the city from its small-town charm into a more metropolitan ambiance. Many of the old Harriman structures are either being replaced or restored to keep Sparks’ traditional, railroad charm, but livening it up a little; bringing the old city into the new.

Down Payment
It is the norm for people to pay some sort of down payment on bigger purchases like a new house. Whether this is your first time buying or third, a down payment is a must. Down payments are essential for the loan holder to assure the lender there isn’t a risk when lending you money.
For a conventional loan, you will need 20% down. VA loans (loans for someone serving, or who has served, or the spouse of someone serving) and FHA (Federal Housing Association) are two other types of loans people can apply for if they qualify.
Veterans can apply for the VA loan, which will require no down payment but instead, you pay a one-time VA funding fee. Whereas if you were to receive the FHA loan, you are responsible for paying a down payment of 3.5%.
The average cost of a home in Nevada is around $320,203, so if we use this number, we can break down the payments to see the amount you would be paying with each loan.
VA=0% percent down, which is easy, 0 cost to you for your down payment.
FHA=3.5%, if your house is the average cost, the future homeowner will need roughly $11,207.
The conventional loan at 20% will have a down payment of $64,041.
In order to qualify for an FHA loan, you need to meet the following requirements:
A FICO score of 500-579 will get you a 10% down payment. If you have a FICO score of 580 or higher, you will be able to get yourself the 3.5% down
Verify you have been employed in the last two consecutive years
Proof of pay stubs, income tax, and bank statements
Your loan must be used for your primary residence
The home must be approved by an FHA appraiser and meet the HUD guidelines
Your monthly mortgage payments will not exceed 31% of your gross monthly income
Your monthly mortgage plus monthly debt payments should not exceed 43% of your monthly income
You have not claimed bankruptcy in the last 12 months, and if you have, you will need to wait another two years to apply for an FHA loan.
Credit
A good credit score is a key to finding yourself a loan from just about any lender, but you don’t want to allow your score to drop before the closing date. Having a drop in your credit rating can keep you from closing. Once you have been pre-approved, refrain from opening any new credit accounts. If you have any accounts that have been open for a long time, keep them open; closing them could harm your credit. People have credit card debt at times, and if this is the case for you, you will want to maintain your payment schedule, no late payments.
Real Estate Agent
As a buyer, <a href="https://www.nevadarealestategroup.com/contact/" title="Contact">finding a great real estate agent</a> is crucial. They don’t only find you the perfect home that meets all your wants and needs, but they can recommend lenders, lawyers, and escrow companies. Your realtor wants to see you find the perfect place to call your own; they will make sure to find you the best deal.
When looking for the perfect realtor, consider the following:
Years of experience in the field
How many houses have they sold in the last year?
Do they have experience in your price range and neighborhoods?
Check out their reviews and complaints if applicable
You can have a few agents to choose from. This is their job, and you are kind of their employer, so if you have a few good potential realtors, bring them in for an interview to ask essential questions, such as the ones listed above. Focus on the experience with your price range and neighborhoods you want to look in. You can also go for a “test drive” with the potential agents. Take them to a showing; nothing is saying you need to sign a buyer’s agency agreement before having them show you a home.
Mortgage
A home buyer will want a letter of pre-approval before starting their search. In some cases, you will have the seller refuse to show someone their house if they can’t provide them with their letter. Knowing what you have to spend on your future house will allow you to look at homes within your budget.

Lender
Unless you have enough money saved to buy a house upfront, you will need a lender. Lenders can come directly from banks and credit unions, or you can opt out for a mortgage broker who is a licensed professional that connects you with potential lenders. Your broker can get you rates you may not get when working directly with a bank on your own. However, they could be biased to some lenders, so it is important to do your research and ask important questions. You will also want to ask about their fees and if there are any down payments.
Home
Start your house search by first determining the location and price range. Do you want a new build or a 19th-century house with recent renovations inside? Some of the critical questions to ask yourself. Another good question to ask yourself, what are the perks and amenities like in the neighborhoods you are looking at. Once you have the basic questions answered, you can start the search. <br />Bring a checklist to each showing stating all the features you may want, like a pool or a new roof. While paying attention to the desired characteristics, check for red flags and either make a mental note or have a separate note pad to write anything down you may notice. If you have your sales agent alongside you, they will also be making a mental note of all the same things, so don’t stress too much.
Inspection
Once the seller accepts your offer, having inspections done will ensure you won’t purchase a house that needs significant repairs. However, if repairs are required, the potential buyer can negotiate the price if they want to move forward with the sale. When hiring an inspector, you want to make sure they will be looking at the following:
Roof
HVAC system
Foundation
Electrical system
Plumbing
If the home has a septic system, have your inspector check it out for any potential issues. When buying a home in Nevada, it is suggested you also do Radon testing, as well as Termite testing. These tests aren’t required by law; however, these tests may be mandatory if you are receiving an FHA or VA loan.
Insurance
Insurance is a must when you are a homeowner. Having insurance protects you when things like floods and fires happen or other natural disasters. When you buy a new house, transferring over insurance from one property to the next is simple. If this situation pertains to you, give your insurance agent a call or email and request a new policy agreement.
Ask your real estate agent if they have recommendations on an Insurance Agent if you are a first-time homebuyer.
Real Estate Lawyer
Many home buyers and sellers will use a real estate lawyer due to the complexity of things that are involved. Your attorney may draft up the deed to the house, as well as negotiate deals and contracts. More responsibilities include researching the zoning law issues while handling property management and any real estate investing. If there is a reason the client ends up in court over real estate handlings, your lawyer will be the one to represent you.
Finalizing
You have your down payment and have been pre-approved for your mortgage. You found your agent, lawyer, and the right home for you; you have even found yourself a lender and had your future house inspected, but what’s next? The next step in the buying process is the closing which includes a lot of paperwork. Other possible things included in the closing may be home appraisal and doing a title search. A title search will make sure no one else other than the current seller has claimed the property.
While we know buying a new house can be a time full of emotions, good and bad, we want you to have as many good emotions as possible. Don’t stress over how long it may be taking or all the things you need to do. In time, it will all come together. <br />Congratulations on your new home!<br /><br /><br /><br />

Moving to a new city, regardless of why is a major life event. Even when carefully planned and thoroughly researched, the most steel-nerved individual can become stressed and overwhelmed at the thought.
<a href="https://www.nevadarealestategroup.com/communities/" title="Northern Nevada Cities, Neighborhoods and Communities" class="btn-effect">View All Northern Nevada Cities, Neighborhoods and Communities >>></a>
If you are facing a move to a new city, or in the process of considering it, there are a handful of things you will want to consider. Below we will touch on a number of important aspects of moving and a few questions you will want to ask yourself.

Chapter 1: Prepping to Move
Decide on the city
For most people, moving to a new city is something we do because we have to. Whether it be for a job, significant other, or school, moving out of our comfort zone, i.e. where we currently are, is typically brought on by an outside force. If that is the case, the decision of where is almost always made for you.
If you are part of the second group - moving out of choice - then you will need to decide which city you want to go to. Many times, people decide to move out of their current city because they are unhappy with their lifestyle. Whether an unfulfilling job or relationship or just purely for a change of scenery, a new city can provide a fresh outlook on life. Maybe you have recently visited a new city such as Sedona, Arizona, or Ocean City, Maryland, and fell in love with the area, or are blindly taking a leap of faith and moving sight unseen. No matter your reasoning, choosing where you want to live will be step number one.
Research the city
Now that you have decided where you are moving to, it is a great idea to find out as much as you can about the area. Spend some time online reading about the city, things to do, popular neighborhoods, amenities offered, and more.
If you are moving a family, it would be prudent to find out information on schools, medical services, recreation facilities, and community parks. Going alone? It would still be time well spent looking into entertainment, services, and overall livability.
Take a look at what the locals have to say! No one knows this city like a lifelong <a href="https://www.nevadarealestategroup.com/reno/">Reno </a>resident. Reading local blogs, social media pages, columns and more will give you valuable insight into what it is truly like living in the city. Have questions of your own? There are many different forums online which allow you to post questions and receive responses.
Research where you want to live in the city
Beyond the city as a whole, you will want to do additional research on where within the city you want to live. At this point in your research, it may make sense to enlist the services of a local<a href="https://www.nevadarealestategroup.com/contact/" title="Contact Chris Nevada"> real estate agent.</a> Realtors wear many different hats, some of which are tour guides and local historians. An experienced agent can tell you the ins and outs of neighborhoods, suburbs, communities and subdivisions throughout the city. Not only are they a fountain of valuable knowledge, but they can also help pair you with the area that best suits you and your family’s needs.
Some important topics to research when considering an area to live in your new city should include:
Is the neighborhood or community safe?
The distance to work/school/extracurriculars
Are there public transportation stops nearby?
Before finalizing any living arrangements, most people will want to take a trip to their new city and scout out the area for themselves. Planning a mini-stay in a neighborhood you are considering is an excellent way to see firsthand what it will be like to live there. Try booking an Airbnb for a weekend or even a week and you will be able to learn things you didn’t even know you’d care about.
When purchasing a home, many buyers will want to walk through the property before putting in an offer. This is also a great opportunity to ask questions regarding the neighborhood and what it will be like when you live there.
Chapter 2: Before the Move
Once you have solidified where you are going to live, there are further steps you will want to take to prepare your family and/or yourself for the big move.
Create a Moving Budget
Moving can be expensive and costs can add up quickly, catching you off guard. Sitting down and compiling a list of moving expenses is an excellent way to prepare yourself financially (and mentally) for the costs you will likely incur.
Some things to consider when creating a moving budget:
Cost of scouting out the area, house hunting, sight-seeing
Cost of moving out of your current property - damage deposit, cleaning costs, commission on a sale, etc.
Cost of movers and shipping, especially if moving out of the area
At this point, many of these costs will be rough estimates, however, even with those in place, you will be able to get a ballpark figure on your numbers.
Contact Utility/Subscription/Services, etc
Much like when moving within the same city, one will need to contact their utility companies, magazine subscriptions, mail services, and more. When moving to a new city you will need to do the same, however, there may be other factors at play and you will want to think about:
Do the same utility companies serve your new city? If not, you will need to set up new accounts after you inform your previous companies of your planned move.
Are my subscription services available in my new city? Depending on where you are moving to some companies don’t serve every city equally.
Ongoing physical services such as lawn care, cleaning services and more will need to be canceled and likely not be the same companies available in your new area.
Make sure to advise medical services such as family doctors, dentists, therapists and more of your move and that you will likely be transferring your care and records to a new office.
Find a Job
As mentioned before, many times people are moving due to a job offer or opportunity. If that is the case, then feel free to jump ahead. For those who are moving without employment secured, you will likely be looking for a job either before or upon arrival. Even if you aren’t planning on finding or applying for any jobs before moving, there are a handful of things one can do in preparation.
For those planning to find employment when they move, below are a few preemptive steps to take:
Research the local job market through online postings found on sites such as indeed, Workopolis or LinkedIn.
Reach out to contact you may have in your new city and let them know you are planning on looking for a job when you get there and to keep you in mind if they hear of any openings.
If you don’t know anyone in your new area, try speaking with contacts you may have at large businesses. Many times companies have multiple offices around the country or even the world and may be able to know of upcoming jobs.
Find out which companies and businesses are in your new city and make a list of potential workplaces you may be interested in.
For movers planning on securing a job before you move, all of the above would still be steps you will want to take, however, you will also want to apply for jobs online, reach out to companies directly, and make plans to travel for interviews if necessary.

Schedule the Move
With home and job (or prospective job) in place, you will want to schedule the big day! Depending on your living situation, you may be limited to when you are able to move. If you are selling a home or moving out of an apartment, you may be dictated by the closing day or end of the lease. Moving in may have the same restrictions. If your dates line up beautifully, and you are able to choose the move-in date, it makes it beneficial to plan some additional time to settle in. Not only is moving in and of itself a big task but so is settling into an unfamiliar place.
If you have a job lined up and know your start date, you may want to consider allowing extra time before so you are not stressed on your first day of work. Generally, even a few days off after a move will allow you to get your bearings and unpack your necessities.
Some instances will require movers to find interim housing, whether it is in their current city or new location. If this is the case, having a storage unit or something of the sort can be quite useful, especially if it is only a short time.
Plan the Move
Once the move date has been scheduled you are able to plan the actual move. If you are moving a significant amount of belongings a significant distance, you will want to look into all your options.
Uhaul’s are a popular moving option and allow people to pack up their belongings and drive them to their new city on their own. For some, this is not an option as they have too much to transport or the distance is too far. If this is the case there are many companies available that will ship belongings on your behalf.
Pricing out a number of moving options will ensure you find the best method at the best rate to suit your needs and budget.
Start Packing
A dreaded chore for many movers is the inevitable packing. There are a few things you can do to make the task as easy and stress-free as possible, which include:
Start early
It may feel like the big day is far away, however, moves tend to creep up on you and are here before you know it. Starting early will ensure you have plenty of time to pack and organize your belongings.
Don’t move it all
When moving to a new city, especially when it is far from where you currently live, you will want to take only what you truly want and need. Not only is this better for your checkbook, but you will also thank yourself when it comes time to unpack. Sorting through your belongings and throwing out or donating what you don’t want to take is a great way to make the job easier.
Label, label, label
Not much is more frustrating than just having moved to a new house, in a new city, and not being able to find your coffee maker. When packing there are a handful of ways you can ensure you stay organized. From master lists to color coordination, the idea is to know what is in each box and where it goes at the new house.
Pack an overnight bag
Especially for travelers heading out a far distance, an overnight bag filled with all your essentials will be a lifesaver after a busy day of moving. Medication, phone chargers, important paperwork, toiletries and more can be kept on hand and easily reachable.
Chapter 3: After the Move
You’ve made it! Though you may have been doubtful at some points, you have now made your way to your new city! First and foremost, take time to celebrate the momentous occasion.
Now that you’ve somewhat settled into your new house, there are still a few things you will want to do to make the transition as seamless as possible. Though the big steps are complete, many times there are a handful of little things we tend to overlook. Below is a list of not as common things to consider once you’ve moved to a new city.
Update your information
Once you are in your new city, at a permanent address, you will want to update your driver’s license, identification information, medical records, and all pertinent paperwork for tax purposes.
Register to Vote
For those who have moved out of their previous jurisdictions, it is important to make sure you are legally registered to vote in your new city.
Register for School
For many, registering your children for school is a top priority when moving to a new city. If you have not done so for any number of reasons, once established you will want to contact the local school board to ensure your child is properly registered.
Register your pet
If you have moved with a four-legged friend, many cities will require you to register your pet and obtain updated tags. You can find this information on most city websites.
Moving is an exciting and overwhelming task, and when coupled with the prospect of heading to a new city, it can feel downright terrifying. However, with research and planning, the process can become a whole lot easier! Regardless of what is drawing you to a new city - a job, a person or an adventure, remember to embrace the change and have a little fun!<br /><br />Google Reviews

The expert advice of a certified home inspector can help buyers ensure that there are no major problems with the property that's about to become their home. However, many people don't know a lot about the inspection process or what questions can help them get the most out of it. Additionally, some people decide to skip a home inspection entirely, which is never advisable. Want to make sure a home is completely free of hidden hazards? Ask these five questions before getting a home inspection in <a href="https://www.nevadarealestategroup.com/reno/">Reno</a> or anywhere else you're looking.

For informational purposes only. Always consult with a licensed real estate professional before proceeding with any real estate transaction.
What Is the Inspector's Background?
Ensuring that the inspector has the right experience helps prospective buyers get what they need from the process. The best inspectors should have experience with construction and homebuilding. For example, a homebuyer might ask if the inspector has a background in trades such as plumbing or electrical work. This is the sort of experience that can give inspectors the knowledge to speak directly about potential issues in this area.
Buyers should also ensure that their inspector is licensed, insured, and bonded. Making sure that they have the proper qualifications can help buyers be sure that the inspector will go over every detail and detect any potential issues.
Are There Any Red Flags?
After finding the right inspector, the next step is to tackle any deal-breaking issues in the house. Also called red flags, deal-breaking issues are defects that will cost a lot to repair without a strong return on investment. Identifying major issues right away is important. Buyers should ask the inspector what issues they would take care of right away if it were their home. Identifying red flags as soon as possible can save time, money, and stress.
What Are the Most Expensive Issues?
High-cost issues such as roof, foundation, wiring, unpermitted construction, and HVAC system problems need to be known before agreeing to buy a home. In some cases, resolving the issues may be more expensive than the job is worth. In others, they put the buyer in a strong position to negotiate for a lower price. A buyer who discovers that the HVAC system needs to be replaced can potentially lower their offer on the home.
Homebuyers should also ask their inspector for referrals if there is work that needs to be immediately done. Many home inspectors know which professionals in their area do good work and which potential buyers might wish to avoid.
What Is the Condition of the Roofline?
The roof is often the most expensive part of a house to maintain. Issues with the roof, if not addressed, can lead to serious structural damage over time. If the roofline looks wavy, it can indicate some of <a href="https://www.ghclark.com/8-common-roofing-problems-and-how-to-fix-them/" target="_blank">the most common roof problems</a>, including humidity in the attic, dry-rot in walls, leaks, poor insulation, or foundation problems.
The roof itself should also be fairly new and in excellent shape. Broken or missing shingles, issues with the flashing, or worn and missing gutters are all problems that need to be addressed as soon as possible.
How Long Will the Current Features Last?
Different features of every home, including the roof, the HVAC, the kitchen appliances, and the floor, need to be periodically replaced. Find out how much life each of these has in them before committing to buy. While learning that the roof will need to be replaced within five years might not necessarily be a dealbreaker, it is vital to know going in. Understanding future costs can help home buyers plan for them going in. By making a timeline of the life expectancy for each of the features in the home, owners can establish a budget instead of being caught by surprise.
A Proper Home Inspection Can Lead to a Stress-Free Move
The home inspector can be a strong ally to buyers when looking for the right home. Whether taking on a fixer-upper or <a href="https://www.nevadarealestategroup.com/blog/10-tips-to-buying-a-new-construction-home/">buying a new construction home</a>, no one should ever skip a home inspection. Home inspections help buyers spot issues like unpermitted work, foundation issues, and other snags that can affect the costs associated with the home in the future. Getting a handle on these before purchasing means that a buyer is going in with all the information they need. With that knowledge, they can decide what to offer, what to ask for from the buyer, and what different aspects of the home will cost in the coming years.

Home prices have risen significantly here in <a href="https://www.nevadarealestategroup.com/reno/">Reno</a> and several parts of the country, and many mortgages require a 20% down payment. As such, it's not uncommon to see down payments of $50,000 or higher. Fortunately, that princely sum is not always required. Read on to learn about a few different options that first-time homebuyers have for securing a down payment.

For informational purposes only. Always consult with a licensed mortgage or home loan professional before proceeding with any real estate transaction.
Conventional Mortgages: 3% Down Payment
Conventional loans with the most desirable rates typically require a 20% down payment. However, there are plenty of great conventional loans to be had with as little as 3% upfront. For example, the Conventional 97 loan, which Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac back, offers 3% down payments to customers with a credit score of 620 or better. Prospective homeowners can even fund part or all of the down payment with a gift. With a mortgage down payment of less than 20%, lenders require private mortgage insurance or PMI. The premium will be added to the monthly payment for part of the life of the mortgage.
Federal Housing Administration (FHA) Mortgages: 3.5% Down Payment
Backed by the Department of Housing and Urban Development, FHA loans require a 3.5% down payment. These work in favor of first-time owners because FHA mortgage qualifying standards aren't as rigid as with a conventional mortgage. Generally, a credit score of only 580 is good enough for the 3.5% rate. Some lenders will allow scores as low as 500 with a 10% down payment.
VA Loans: 0% Down Payment for Veterans
For veterans, there can hardly be a better deal. With a VA loan, veterans can get into a home with no down payment at all. There is a funding fee that's rolled into the monthly payment, but PMI is not required. People applying for a VA loan should ask <a href="https://www.nevadarealestategroup.com/blog/home-inspection-questions/">additional questions during a home inspection</a>.
USDA Loans: 0% Down Payment in Less Populated Areas
These are also known as rural housing loans, and like VA loans, they're zero down to qualified buyers. USDA mortgages are limited to areas of the U.S. defined as "less populated," such as rural areas and small towns. Also, they're restricted to low- and medium-income buyers. To qualify, borrowers must earn no more than 115% of the local median income.
Gifts: An Interest-Free Alternative to Down Payments
If there's a well-off friend or relative in the picture, most mortgage providers allow all or part of the down payment to be covered by a gift. The donor will have to provide documentation about their financial situation to ensure that they can afford the generosity and that the money is a bona fide gift and not a loan.
HomeReady and Home Possible Mortgages: 3% Down Payment
Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac back <a href="https://singlefamily.fanniemae.com/originating-underwriting/mortgage-products/homeready-mortgage" target="_blank">HomeReady mortgages </a>and Home Possible loans. They're aimed at low-income and multi-generational households, but they're not limited to those. They're similar to conventional loans and require as little as 3% down. However, there are limits on how much of the down payment may be a gift. Borrowers may have to complete a homebuyer education class.
Crowdfunding a Down Payment
It's the 21st century, and, as in so many areas, buyers can turn to the internet to round up a down payment. Two examples:
FeatherTheNest.com is like a gift registry and focuses on engaged and newlywed couples. Donors and donees should be aware that there are hefty credit card fees.
HomeFundIt.com is an arm of the mortgage lender CMG Financial. Homebuyers must prequalify with CMG, and then they can use the website to raise cash.
State and Local Programs for Assistance with Down Payments
About 2,500 down payment assistance programs exist around the country. A Google query of "down payment assistance in [city or county]" will find them. They're from government agencies, nonprofits, and foundations. Many have home price and buyer income limits, and some are restricted to first-time buyers.
Meeting the Down Payment Challenge
With today's <a href="https://www.nevadarealestategroup.com/reno/">home prices in Reno</a> and elsewhere throughout the state, raising the first-time homebuyer down payment is challenging, but many choices are available to meet that challenge.

Statistics shared by the <a href="https://www.nahb.org/news-and-economics/industry-news/press-releases/2021/02/NAHB-Announces-Top-Sustainable-and-Green-Building-Trends-and-Features-in-Homes" target="_blank">National Association of Home Builders</a> indicate that 66% of consumers prefer durable materials used in their homes. The average buyer is willing to pay more than $9,000 upfront to save $1,000 a year on utility costs. In response to consumer preferences, many construction companies have embraced sustainable ways and eco-friendly practices to build or remodel homes. Read on to learn about some of the most popular sustainable building trends available now.

Pursuing LEED Certification/Implementing Green Practices
LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) certification has become a visible credential in today's building industry. Walking through major cities, the LEED certification stamp can be found on the front of many commercial buildings. This trend is quickly making its way to private housing. LEED homes are built with sustainability as a priority. With this approach, construction companies use fewer resources and generate less waste. Materials used include green building materials such as bamboo, stone, steel, natural fibers, <a href="https://www.tileclub.com/collections/recycled-glass-tile" target="_blank">recycled glass tiles</a>, composites, cellulose, insulated concrete forms, polyurethane, non-VOC paints, fiber cement, and slate/stone roofing. Companies also try to source materials locally as much as they can.
Emphasizing Water Conservation
Builders today are generally placing a huge emphasis on water conservation. This includes practices during construction and integrating water-conserving features in the homes they build. Homeowners will find efficient plumbing features have been included in their homes to help promote water conservation. Top features <a href="https://www.nevadarealestategroup.com/reno/">Reno</a> homeowners enjoy in their newly constructed (or reconstructed) homes include low-flush toilets, tankless water heaters, drip irrigation, and tanks to collect rainwater.
Integrating Smart Technology Appliances
Smart technology is certainly no fad. It's here to stay. The majority of today's house hunters actively pursue homes that feature smart technology. Aside from the high convenience aspect smart tech offers, it also promotes sustainable living. Most new homes will feature some form of smart tech, and even older homes are being upgraded to include it. If a home doesn't come with these appliances, they can be installed later as a <a href="https://www.nevadarealestategroup.com/blog/high-roi-home-improvements/">high-ROI home improvement project</a>.
Popular smart tech products in sustainable construction homes include smart appliances, LED lighting, smart thermostats, and motion lights. Products not yet standard but steadily making their way to that status include Wi-Fi-enabled light switches, smart door locks, video doorbells, and automated window shades. The beauty of these and other smart products is that homeowners can control their energy usage while simultaneously boosting energy efficiency.
Adding Passive Solar Features
Passive solar initiatives are a terrific way to maximize the sun's energy. Aside from adding solar panels or solar water heaters, other practices are designed to work with these features to maximize their benefits. For instance, builders integrate windows that maximize the sun's power, use sustainable insulation, promote air sealing, and install auxiliary <a href="https://classicairconditioningandheating.com/" target="_blank">heating and cooling systems</a>. As this technology matures and more laws are passed to integrate solar, it's a sustainable trend that will likely accelerate more very soon.
Including Health and Wellness Features
Another sustainable construction trend this year is builders responding to buyer preferences regarding health and wellness features. Homebuyers don't want toxic materials in their homes and are willing to pay more to avoid them. Homes certified for health and wellness features will often fetch a few extra dollars in asking prices. As such, <a href="https://www.dub-l-ee.com/commercial-construction/" target="_blank">construction companies</a> and contractors are responding. Features they include in homes include zone heating, UVC fans, indoor air quality sensors, and outdoor features to promote fresh air. The U.S. Department of Environmental Protection offers a <a href="https://www.epa.gov/smartgrowth/comparison-green-building-standards" target="_blank">list of green building standards</a> available to construction companies and contractors.
Sustainable Construction Helps Your Budget and the Environment
While sustainable practices are rapidly increasing, some builders are taking it a step further by setting a goal to build "<a href="https://zeroenergyproject.org/buy/zero-energy-homes/" target="_blank">net-zero homes</a>." These carbon-free homes yield homeowners a net-zero energy bill. These trends and innovations will certainly continue to be included in new builds and remodels. If planning on <a href="https://www.nevadarealestategroup.com/blog/10-tips-to-buying-a-new-construction-home/">buying a new construction home</a>, think about including some sustainable construction features. After all, sustainability is undoubtedly here to stay.

You've decided you want to start a new journey and obtain your Real Estate License. A great career choice, for sure, but it isn't always easy knowing where to begin and what is required of you. This is your ultimate guide to getting your <a href="https://www.nevadarealestategroup.com/reno/">real estate</a> license in Nevada.
Meet the requirements for Nevada
Fingerprints
Pre-licensing course
Pass exams
Submit your license application
Be an American citizen
Be at least 18 years of age
Nevada Real Estate License Requirements
Every state will have its own requirements for you to receive your Real Estate License, so it may get confusing. Doing the research can save you time, energy, and maybe even money. Below is a list for you to follow if you are considering a new career in real estate.
Fill, sign and send in your application form
You will have to provide your fingerprint and a money order made payable to the department of public safety. You can also fill out a verification form that is issued from an approved Fingerprint vendor which you can find online.
Original state and national passing exam results need to be 75% or higher. Your exam results can't be older than 12 months.
A fee of $125
Education requirements
Provide proof of your pre-licensing education; 90 hours required by completing the following:
- 45 hours or 3 college credits in Real Estate Principles<br />- 45 hours or 3 college credits that will need to include 18 hours of Nevada law
There you have your checklist if you will be starting before October of 2021. Hours of education will be changing after October 2021 and those changes include:
The total number of hours will be moving up to 120
- 45 hours/3 credits in Real Estate Principles as it was before October<br />- The same 45 hours/3 credits that must include the 18 hours of Nevada law<br />- Additional 15 hours/1 credit in contracts in the real estate transaction to the extent allowed when you have a real estate license<br />- Another additional 15 hours that include 3 hours in the foundation of the relationship between broker and agents.<br />- You will also need to complete 3 hours of risk reduction.
Fingerprints:
To be qualified to be a Sales Agent, fingerprints need to be sent to the department of public safety. Keep in mind these will expire after 6 months so be sure to get them into the approved Fingerprint vendor as soon as possible. You can find your list of <br />approved vendors by calling, (<a href="tel:17024864033">(702)486-4033</a>), emailing, (realest@red.nv.gov) or visiting their website, (<a href="https://red.nv.gov/" target="_blank">http://red.nv.gov/</a>)
<a href="https://www.nevadarealestategroup.com/contact/join-our-team/" title="Tell Us About Yourself">Looking To Join a Top-Producing Real Estate Team? Tell Us About Yourself!</a><a href="https://www.nevadarealestategroup.com/blog/common-things-to-look-out-for-before-buying-your-dream-home/" title="Common Things to Look Out for Before Buying Your Dream Home"><br /></a>
Licensing Exam
You have now finished your hours of education and submitted your fingerprints, now it is exam time. The cost for you is $100. This is the final cost, whether you are taking one part or two. The two sections you are to pass are your state and then the national.
National Specific
When taking your National specific exam, you will want to allocate yourself 120 minutes. There will be 80 questions, and everyone will need to answer at least 60 of those correctly.
State Specific
This is to be done in one hour and you will have 40 questions, answering a minimum of 30 correctly to pass.
In Nevada, if you fail one section, State or National, you will only need to retake the specific section over again, rather than both. Although this is accepted, you will only have one year from the written date for your second chance. If you don't complete the makeup in under a year, you will need to hand in another application and pay additional fees.
These tests will be done on a computer and you will not be allowed an open book or cheat sheets, so you will need to put in the study time. There are resources online to help you, including practice tests, which are usually at no cost to you so take advantage of those.

Preparation for Your Exams
Test-taking anxiety is a real thing and people don't always feel like they are prepared, even though they have studied hours upon hours. Below is a list of some of the material covered in the national section to help you better prepare yourself:
Real Calculations
Contracts
Transfer of title
Property ownership
Mandated disclosures
Financing
With your State section being only half the total of questions as your national, you will still want to have an idea of which areas to focus on when studying. Here are some of the subjects:
Advertising
Record keeping
Special topics
Commission duties and powers
Study Tips
As mentioned above, some people have test anxiety so being fully prepared can help reduce their levels of anxiety. Whether you have some of this anxiety or not, everyone could use a good study session or two before taking a test or big exam. You may learn differently than someone else, so it's no surprise that the way you study, may not be the same approach someone else may take. I have found a few generic but helpful tips for studying effectively.
Get organized and stay organized
Make a schedule and try your best to stick to it
Eat well and stay hydrated
Make time for sleeping and unwinding
Summarize key points rather than reading full chapters of textbooks/material
Those core study guidelines are a good way to keep yourself on track. A way to stay organized is to set yourself up with a working area if you haven't already done so. Make sure to keep the area free of clutter and give it a nice refresh every couple of days by dusting and/or lighting a scented candle. A nice area for studying might just be one of the most important things anyone can do. Also, be sure to have good and proper lighting for those late-night study sessions.
Buy yourself a planner or post sticky notes on the wall closest to your designated study area. Set aside the appropriate amount of time to study and focus on one area at a time. Include breaks in your planner, coffee time, even sleep. This can help hold you accountable and stay and track.
Eating a well-balanced diet is good for everyone, but it is especially important to help keep you focused and energized while you prepare for your real estate licensing exam. Eating healthy isn't always easy, grabbing a snack is sometimes easier than cooking a full meal with all your food groups. Setting aside time every few days for meal prep is a great way to ensure you are eating right during the weeks leading up to your tests.
Unwind and relax; give yourself some time every day. This isn't limited to just sleeping. Binge watch a few episodes of your favorite tv show, watch a movie, go for a walk, jog or run. There are plenty of ways for people to relax, it just depends on you and what you enjoy doing. No one can study 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, it just isn't healthy, and you will burn yourself out. If you burn yourself out before exam day, all that hard work was for nothing. So, make sure the work pays off and give yourself downtime. Be sure to give yourself 8 hours of sleep a night.
An important part of studying for anyone, no matter what techniques you are using is to summarize the key points. Continuously reading chapters upon chapters gives you less of a chance to retain important information. Whichever way works best for you, be sure to take out any key information and use that as your study guide.
Submitting Your Application
You did it, you've passed your exams, and are ready to move on to the next steps. Getting your license, in addition to your hours of learning and exam taking, you must submit the proper documentation. The application process includes:
Providing proof of education and completion and passing of exams
Submit your Fingerprint verification
Pay the fee of $125
This is the ultimate guide to getting your real estate license in Nevada. It may look like a lot but when you break it down, it is just a short period of work for a lifetime career in real estate. We wish you all the best in starting your journey and hope you have great success.

Does Lake Tahoe, Nevada Have Good Schools?
In today’s society, education is extremely important to parents. So much so that many parents get second jobs so they can send their children to private schools with better ratings.
A recent study also found that around 78% of parents are willing to find a home that doesn’t meet all their needs, just so their children can attend a good school.
This means parents are compromising on their needs such as a garage, a big backyard, etc. in order for their children to get the best education possible.
The beauty of living in one of the small towns in Lake Tahoe, NV is that parents do not have to worry about compromising their home needs and wants so that their children can receive a good education. Lake Tahoe, NV has some of the best schools surrounded by gorgeous homes.
The school options on the Nevada side of Lake Tahoe are a little limited, but that does not mean they are bad schools.
There are two school districts on the eastern side of Lake Tahoe:
Douglas County School District
Washoe County School District
The population is lower, therefore there are fewer schools than in the bigger cities like Carson and Reno.
Almost all of our clients are willing to sacrifice their needs in order to provide the best education for their children, but that is not necessary for Lake Tahoe, NV.

What Are the Best Private Schools in Reno, Nevada?
Parents are choosing to <a href="https://www.nevadarealestategroup.com/reno/">live in Reno, Nevada</a> as their newest home destination these days. Due to Reno's combination of the urban atmosphere with small-town charm, it's the perfect place for raising children.
A number of award-winning golf courses are nearby, as well as a variety of outdoor activities and some of the best private schools in the region, so there's no wonder so many families choose to call Reno home.
Many families want the best development opportunities and character-building structures for their children, therefore many are concerned as to whether or not they are receiving them at school.
Here are the top 5 best private schools in Reno, NV:

Public schools tend to have large classroom sizes, lack of funding, and an overall lackadaisical approach to developing strong, confident, and well-rounded children.
The private education system has become increasingly popular among families of all sizes and ethnicities. There is a stigma of wealth surrounding private school families, but studies have shown that children from both ends of the household income spectrum attend private schools.
In fact, around 29% of children who attend private schools have families with an income of less than $50,000. In turn, only 26% of children who attend private schools have families with an income of at least $100,000.

We at the <a href="https://www.nevadarealestategroup.com/">Nevada Real Estate Group</a> know just how important finding the perfect school is to our clients and their families.
Private schools are becoming increasingly popular when it comes to parental education preferences. Therefore we have combed through all the private schools in Reno to find the top-rated schools, and what makes them unique.
We hope that this helps ease the stress and worry parents may have when <a href="https://www.nevadarealestategroup.com/blog/moving-to-reno/">moving to Reno, NV</a>, while also trying to find the best schools for their children.

For the 2022-2023 school year, there are 38 private schools serving the Reno, NV area with approximately 4,400 students in combined attendance.

Sage Ridge School
The Sage Ridge School was first established in 1998 serving only grades 6th-8th. Over time they have grown immensely and now offer grades 3rd-12th.

The Nevada Sage Waldorf School offers more than other private schools. In addition to offering grades PK-8th, they also offer a nursery as well. At this school, the educational structure follows that of every Waldorf school, as coincidentally it is the first Waldorf school in Nevada.
Their educational structure meets the child where they are and helps them develop skills socially, emotionally, physically, and spiritually, while also providing them with the best academic tools they need to succeed. There is tuition to attend this school.
Nevada Sage Waldorf School Mission Statement
“Our unique approach to education, based on the work of Rudolf Steiner, provides rigorous learning experiences that engage the mind, enliven the imagination, and honor the spiritual development of each child.

Triad School
The Triad School is another one of the top-rated schools in Reno, NV. They offer grades K-8th and have small unique classes.

Triad School Mission Statement
“Triad School’s mission is to inspire lifelong learning, help students to develop confidence in themselves in order to explore ideas others have not, and to support the social, emotional and academic success of every student.”

Our Lady Of The Snows School is a Roman Catholic-based school located in Reno. It comes highly recommended as both religious and nonreligious families enroll their children at this school.

Finding a commercial property is a job on its own and will involve checking market rents, hiring a lawyer, understanding your costs and more. It is also important to budget for some sort of tenant insurance to cover any unwanted damage and repair costs.
Get to know the building owner before making a decision; they will be a landlord, the same as if one were to rent a residential home. Ask questions such as rules that will need to be followed. Before signing any documents, take a stroll through the neighborhood; many businesses around? What do the demographics of the neighborhood look like etc.
Once an individual has taken all the required courses and is eligible to receive their license they can get to work and start enjoying their new career choice. A career that keeps many people happy, and brings new friendships, business partners and more.<br /><br />Google Reviews

Buy a Home
When people talk about homeownership as an investment, it's not just a figure of speech. A home is one of the few purchases that increase in value over time. Although <a href="https://www.nevadarealestategroup.com/blog/10-tips-to-buying-a-new-construction-home/">buying a new construction home</a> doesn't pay cash right away, it pays "current dividends" by providing a place to live and enjoy. Additionally, when the home is sold, later on, fluctuations in the housing market can result in impressive capital gains. For most people, their home becomes their most valuable asset.
Earn Passive Income with a Rental Property
Another way to invest in real estate is to own a rental property. People who are looking to diversify after purchasing their first home may choose to buy a vacation home or a condo that can be rented out. As such, they become a landlord. That's a job that can be very rewarding but can also carry its share of work and headaches. You'll have to find tenants, keep the property in good repair, and deal with any issues that arise. However, with a good location and good renters, the difficulties can be nominal.
To avoid the challenges of being a landlord, some people offload the job to a property management company. Other people buy a duplex or fourplex and live in one of the units, so they're always on hand to keep on top of things.
Rent Out Commercial Real Estate
Commercial real estate is any property that's zoned for use by a business. This could be <a href="https://www.storagecafe.com/blog/how-to-start-out-in-self-storage/" target="_blank">a single business</a> or a multi-business asset such as a strip mall. These opportunities generally require a larger investment than a residential rental property because of the stringent rules and regulations. For example, commercial real estate that's intended for use as a restaurant requires special ventilation and equipment that can be expensive to install. A few <a href="https://fnrpusa.com/blog/pros-cons-commercial-real-estate-investment/" target="_blank">pros of commercial real estate investments</a> are that commercial tenants usually pay higher monthly rates and sign multi-year leases.
Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT)
A REIT is a way to invest in real estate without any personal management responsibilities. A corporation or trust takes money from a group of investors and buys a pool of properties that produce income. Many REITs specialize in a specific type, such as hotels, malls, or office buildings. When the time is right, investors can sell their shares and walk away with a good return on investment.
Real Estate Mutual Funds
People interested in taking the concept of a REIT a step further will be excited by real estate mutual funds. These mutual funds invest in REITs and in companies that operate real estate. Rather than buy a single REIT, mutual funds offer a more diversified real estate portfolio at a similar level of investment. Additionally, shares can be bought and sold easily for optimal security.
Crowdfunding Real Estate Investment
Almost anything can be accomplished on the Internet today, and real estate investment is no exception. Some crowdfunding investments are limited to deep-pockets investors, but others can be bought into with as little as $500. As with a lot of online opportunities, it's a high-risk, high-reward scenario. Many crowdfunded real estate investments are small and local, for example, a small apartment building. There's a greater chance of default than with other real estate investments. Crowdfunding investors should do ample research before contributing any amount of money.
Vacation Home Rental
Airbnb and other rental-by-owner companies are in the news these days, vacation homeowners in <a href="https://www.nevadarealestategroup.com/reno/">Reno</a> and everywhere else are getting on board. Others are buying vacation homes solely to rent them out. People make a lot of money doing this, but there are some drawbacks. For example, the high guest turnover rate can lead to excessive wear on the home. Some vacation rental owners end up losing their profits to unplanned repairs.
Buy, Repair, Flip, Repeat
People make money flipping houses, but it's not as easy as it sometimes looks on TV. It helps to be a competent DIYer and familiar with the <a href="https://www.nevadarealestategroup.com/blog/home-inspection-questions/">important questions to ask at an inspection</a>. There are two ways to flip. One is to fix the home up and sell it quickly for a profit. The other is to buy a house in a neighborhood that's about to experience rapid appreciation, hold it for a few years, and then sell it.
Which Is the Best Real Estate Investment?
As with any investment, there are some risks involved when purchasing real estate. Anyone interested in real estate investment should first consider their budget, risk tolerance, and the amount of time they're able to dedicate to managing a property.

1. Create The Perfect Team
The first step to buying a new construction home is putting together an excellent team to set you on track. First off, you’re going to want an experienced real estate agent who’s familiar with new construction projects. This realtor will work to the best of your advantage, giving you tips on what questions to ask, recommendations on a reputable builder, and advice on how to best utilize your budget. You also need to find a real estate agent who’s compatible with you. Not only do they need to compliment your personality, but they need to be flexible as well as ready and willing to get you everything you’ve been dreaming of in a house.
The next member of your team will be the building company in charge of creating your dream home. Whether you’re building from scratch, working to design a home together, or choosing from a variety of models, you need to get on the same page as your builder. Do your research, as not all companies are the same. Some contractors work strictly with set vendors and you’ll need to agree to use their sources on everything from flooring to appliances. Others will offer a bit more flexibility, allowing you to pick and choose where your fixtures and features are coming from, which could allow you to save money on more affordable brand names. Whoever you choose, do your research, conduct some interviews, and be sure they will be the right company for you!
2. Find The Right Lender
Once your team is set and you have a vision for your dream home, you need to set a budget. You’ll need to meet with a financial institution, a mortgage broker, or other lender company to determine how much you’ll be able to afford and what you’ll get approved for.
Just as is the case with builders, not all lenders are the same. Construction loans are slightly different from a traditional mortgage loan as construction loans are released in segments, or draws, throughout the building process. This will allow you to make payments to your builder, keeping them happy and the workflow moving.
Many times, the builder will recommend a lender to you, and some require you to only use their preferred lender. This will be something else you want to ask your builder upfront, as the lender they suggest may not offer the best deal.
3. Stick To A Budget
As soon as you know what you’re pre-approved for, you can create your budget. Sticking to your budget is incredibly important when you decide to go with a new construction home, as it’s easy to get swept up in the excitement of designing a home and picking out top-tier fixtures and overspend. As you work through the process of choosing a layout, picking out appliances, and examining tiling options, take note of every purchase made. Keep your notes organized and create a running tally of how much you have spent, this will help you stay on track and prevent going over budget.
Once you have a set budget, you can determine what you’re going to splurge on and where you’re going to cut back on expenses. If having top brand-name appliances in your kitchen is a high priority for you, you should factor that into your budget and maybe decide to save some money on your flooring by choosing the standard option or hunting around for the best deal or sales.
4. The Model Is Likely The Upgrade
One of the most popular options in new construction real estate is to choose a developer that offers a selection of five or six model properties to examine. You’ll be able to tour through each layout that the company offers and choose the perfect design for your lifestyle. These models are presented in tip-top shape, flaunting all the incredible features and amenities to tempt you into choosing that model. What you need to keep in mind as you’re touring through these homes is that the models typically showcase the very best options that the builder has to offer.
As you walk through the model property, you begin to fall in love with the style and aesthetics of the home, making it incredibly easy to picture yourself living in that home. You may see an extravagant fireplace that you hadn’t envisioned initially, but once you see it, you just have to have it! The sparkling countertops on display may seem like the perfect fit but likely come with a hefty price tag. You need to realize that you have additional, often more affordable, options.
Every builder will offer a selection of standard and upgraded features. When you choose your home, ask the builder what the standard options are and be sure that you’re not going over budget by picking the first model you see. Keep your budget in mind and only splurge where you can afford to, make sensible decisions that you won’t regret later. Something to remember is that you can always start with the basics and upgrade later on.
5. Become A Negotiator
New construction homes are often a more expensive option than the more traditional route of choosing a pre-existing home. That being said, there are plenty of ways one can save money during the building process. Your best strategy? Become a tough and determined negotiator!
With the help of your experienced <a href="https://www.nevadarealestategroup.com/about/">real estate agent</a>, you can work together to negotiate the best deal from your contractor. Share your budget with your realtor, decide where you want to save money, and figure out where you’re willing to be flexible and where you just won’t compromise. Meeting with your builder with a plan in mind will help you to not only get the best deal but allow you to find the right builder for you, someone who is willing to work with you and make your dream come true.

6. Consider Going Green
Energy-efficient options have become increasingly popular over the last decade. Many homeowners have made the decision to opt for more eco-friendly appliances in order to decrease their carbon footprint. Building companies have started offering green options to their clients and work with environmentally friendly vendors.
These green appliances and utilities may start off as the more expensive option, but over time, they’ll actually end up saving you money. One of the most popular energy-saving options is solar panels. Cities that are known for the high volume of sunlight are switching to solar-powered energy options. For example, many new construction homes in Reno are taking advantage of the sunny climate and offering extensive solar options, saving homeowners money and creating sustainable energy opportunities.
7. Get It In Writing
When you work with a reputable company, you’ll likely have a smooth experience and they’ll provide everything that they’ve promised you, on time. However, there’s always a chance that someone will make a mistake and try to get away with it to save their skin. This is why it’s a good idea to put absolutely everything in writing, something that an experienced realtor will know and ensure.
As you meet with your builder, take diligent notes, request written contracts, and be sure to document any negotiations you’ve agreed upon. Verbal conversations won’t hold up if something goes wrong and could cause some costly, unexpected expenses. As you work through the building process, keep track of all these documents to ensure you’re getting everything that you and your team have previously agreed on.
8. Get A Guarantee
Guarantees go hand-in-hand with getting everything in writing. A documented guarantee will ensure that your home is finished on the agreed upon completion date and will be specified in your purchase agreement documents. Have your realtor and lawyer review these documents to be sure that there are no loopholes and your contract is secure.
There is always the possibility that something will go wrong that’s out of you and your builder’s control. Anything from vendors unexpectedly closing to short building materials from a supplier could pop up during your building process. When you have a guaranteed completion date, the only thing you’ll need to sweat is the delayed move-in date and if your builder can’t get you in on the agreed day, they will be responsible for making it up to you. Sometimes this comes in the form of a cash bonus and sometimes they’ll offer you free upgrades. However, if you don’t have a signed guarantee, they can delay as much as they want with no repercussions.
9. Ask About Warranties
Warranties are incredibly important and you need to understand what’s covered during your home-buying process. Most builders use third-party warranties covering materials and workmanship, but since every builder and warranty is different, you’ll need to inquire about what specifically is covered and for how long. If the builder is using materials from different manufacturers and suppliers, they’ll likely use separate warranties for each product.
As with all agreements between you and your builder, you’ll want to get these warranties in writing right away. You’ll want to be able to reference the specifics of what you originally expected and you can keep these documents together along with all of your housing contracts to refer to at a later date, should something go wrong with your materials or products.
10. Get Inspected
It’s true, even a brand new home needs to meet and pass certain expectations and regulations. All throughout the building process, you’ll need to keep up with certain standards set by health and safety rulings to ensure you’re getting a safe and reliable home. Eagle-eyed inspectors will be able to come in with a fresh set of eyes and catch slip-ups or potential problems that your builder may have missed.
Your contractor will most likely have a set checklist of everything that needs to be inspected before they can move on to the next stage of building to keep everything up to code.
Before your home can officially be passed over to your ownership, it’ll need to pass the final inspections. This can seem like a tedious stage, especially when you’re so close to getting the keys to your beautiful new construction home, but it’s one of the most important. Passing the inspections will not only give you the comfort of knowing your home is safe, but it’ll also keep you from costly repairs within the first few years of owning your home.
Buying a new construction home is the ideal option if you’re looking for your perfect forever home. Picking out fixtures, deciding on the best designs, and creating your ultimate vision is not only one of the best ways to guarantee you’ll be satisfied with your tremendous purchase, but it’s also the most rewarding experience you can take on in the world of real estate!<br /><br />Google Reviews

2022-01-31T07:54:00-07:002022-04-08T07:20:22-07:00Chris Nevadatag:nevadarealestategroup.com,2012-09-20:16168How Home Values Can Be Affected By Drive Times & Access to Transit Options<img style="display: block; float: right; margin-bottom: 30px; margin-left: 15px; width: 475px;" src="https://assets.site-static.com/userfiles/1385/image/why-transit-and-commutes-change-home-value.jpg" alt="Moving Soon? Consider Transit and Driving Times Before Buying a Home" width="475" />When selling a home, proximity to major roads or public transportation might not be a primary thought concerning value in the owner's eyes. However, for those looking to <a href="https://www.nevadarealestategroup.com/blog/moving-to-a-new-city/">buy a home in a new city</a>, location can affect the home's worth and desirability. The truth is, those who work or go to school might rely on having an easy commute or access to solid public transportation options.
Lack of access to these might not be a deal-breaker, but it certainly may affect what buyers are willing to pay to live there. Keep reading to learn why commute durations and access to local transit will affect the value of most houses.
Public Transportation Options Matter
While some individuals always drive their auto, others might rely partially or wholly on public transportation. In major metro cities like New York or Chicago, many people rely on public transit as their main form of transportation. Even many people in smaller suburban communities around the country rely on a train or bus to alleviate their commute into the city.
Public transit options can range widely and include one or more of the following:
Subways
Bus Lines
Light Rail
Ride-Sharing Options
Taxis or Cabs
Trains
Driving families will likely appreciate having access to roadways that ease their commutes and drive times. Either way, buyers will be interested more in homes near the conveniences they need to quickly get where they want to go. Being in the right location for the right buyer can lead to greater profits on the sale and less time on the market.
The Importance of Access to Nearby Roadways
A mid-sized to a large city is likely to have significant roads that make it easy for commuters to get around town quickly. <a href="https://www.investopedia.com/financial-edge/0410/the-5-factors-of-a-good-location.aspx" target="_blank">Neighborhoods with a good location</a> with one or more ways to approach highways and toll roads are highly desirable for professionals and those who need to travel frequently.
On the flip side of the equation, some home buyers who aren't on the go often beyond necessities and sightseeing may not want to live near a heavily trafficked roadway. These roads tend to cause a good bit of noise, especially during peak commuting hours. Again, it depends on the buyer when it comes to determining the value of having freeway access.
Don't Underestimate the Importance of Commute Times
Those who commute a reasonable distance are far more likely to be interested in homes near roadways that allow them to get to their destination efficiently. These buyers can use online maps that will tell them route times and indicate which hours of the day are most likely to see bumper-to-bumper backups of traffic.
Beyond time, commuters will consider additional costs that long commutes might incur, such as higher expenses for:
Automobile Maintenance
Vehicle Insurance
Accident Risks
Fuel Expenses
Auto Repair Costs
Commute times can make or break a home sale for working professionals and college students living off-campus.
More Notes on Noise Factors
Residents who covet getting ample rest will want a quieter location during their typical sleep times. Those working at home or who have children tend to shy away from homes with excessive street noise as well. Before buying a home or attempting to sell, consider how noisy the area is when factoring in price and determining how to approach listing it. Noise level is known to impact the appreciation and depreciation of home values either positively or negatively.
Discuss Transit and Drive Times with a Local Real Estate Agent
Maximizing home value is a top priority for most homeowners. From <a href="https://www.nevadarealestategroup.com/blog/high-roi-home-improvements/">implementing high-ROI home improvement projects</a> to choosing the right location, there are many ways to increase property value. Discover just how much access to transit and roadways may impact any plans to sell or buy a home by <a href="https://www.nevadarealestategroup.com/contact/">calling a local real estate team</a> like the Nevada Real Estate Group. Local agents like our team will have a good idea of the current market trends and what the most typical buyers seek.2021-11-01T09:40:00-07:002021-11-01T09:49:04-07:00Chris Nevadatag:nevadarealestategroup.com,2012-09-20:14103Moving To and Living In Dayton, Nevada: The Definitive Guide [2022 Edition]<img src="https://assets.site-static.com/userfiles/1385/image/moving-to-Dayton-NV.jpg" width="750" height="300" alt="Moving to Dayton, Nevada" title="Moving to Dayton, Nevada" />

History of Dayton, Nevada
<img src="https://assets.site-static.com/userfiles/1385/image/Nevada_Real_Estate_dayton_nevada_real_estate_agents_.jpg" width="300" height="300" alt="dayton nevada real estate agents " style="float: right; margin: 10px;" />Steeped in history, Dayton is the first Nevada settlement. Once called “Ponderers Rest”, the area was originally a site for travelers to stop and decide to either follow the river south or carry on west.
In the late 1840s, Abner Blackburn discovered a gold nugget in the nearby Gold Creek and the area quickly drew in gold miners from all over. Throughout the 1850s, Dayton was a commercial hub serving the miners throughout the area. While California was taxing Chinese miners, Nevada was not, therefore many would head to Dayton to avoid the tax. By 1860, the area was referred to as “China Town” as it was almost fully occupied by Chinese miners.
In 1861, the town was officially named “Dayton” and more residents returned to the area as there was profit to be made when supplying materials and goods to nearby miners. Within a stretch of about 5 years, Dayton went from about 78 residents to over 2,500. The town was flourishing until a devastating fire drastically reduced its size.
With a population that hovered around 500, the town lost its designation as the Lyon County Seat. It took over 60 years for Dayton to surpass the population peak of 2,500 residents which is recorded in 1865.
In 1961 the town made a name for itself by being the site for the film “The Misfits” which was the last film of stars Clark Gable and Marilyn Monore, however, it wasn’t until nearly 30 years later, in 1990 that the town had a substantial amount of growth.
Today, Dayton is a charming and historic community that, though heavily rooted in the past, has a solid view of the future.

Find A Mentor
For a new agent, finding a great mentor is invaluable and provides hands-on learning. There is textbook learning which provides great knowledge but not necessarily the practical “real world” aspect of being a real estate agent. A mentor can give a number of scenarios their mentee can practice to gain experience and practice problem-solving.
When working with a mentor, a new real estate agent gets to watch and learn all the great ways to interact with clients and how to build relationships. As a new agent, it may be comforting to just go off a script when interacting with clients as nerves are setting in, however having someone there to guide you can build confidence and allow for a more genuine conversation.
Be Tech-Savvy
<img src="https://assets.site-static.com/userfiles/1385/image/tech-savy-real-estate-agent.jpg" width="900" height="300" alt="Tech Savy Real Estate Agent" title="Tech Savy Real Estate Agent" />
There are a number of benefits to being a tech-savvy real estate agent in Nevada which include the following:
Save Time
Being a real estate agent is hectic and most days are filled with driving around, meeting clients, attending open houses, and more. Technology can be used to save time with things such as contract signatures. Apps that include Zillow or DocuSign allow for electronic signing to save time for everyone involved.
Tools
Various tools that include getting neighborhood data or extensive property listings in a database are some of the many tools a tech-savvy agent can benefit from. More tools and benefits include:
Reports on current real estate conditions
Instant email notifications of homes that are just listed
Referral networks
Virtual tours
Easy to follow up with clients
Presentations
Seamless closing transactions
Communication apps
Helping the environment by creating a paperless environment

Get Social
<img src="https://assets.site-static.com/userfiles/1385/image/social-media-real-estate-agent.jpg" width="900" height="300" alt="Social Media for Real Estate" title="Social Media for Real Estate" />
Social media plays a big role in a lot of people's lives, there is Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, TikTok, LinkedIn, YouTube, and more. Agents can do Facebook and Instagram live house tours, Snapchat stories, and even hop on the TikTok train. A successful real estate agent in <a href="https://www.nevadarealestategroup.com/reno/">Reno</a>, Nevada should have a social media platform or platforms that stand out. This can be done by not only utilizing the tools mentioned but engaging with their audience; having a high engagement rate brings in more business.
Engage with clients by playing games such as, guess how much this home will be listed at; the comment section will explode! After a post like this, an agent's inbox can also start to attract attention with inquiries from potential clients with questions that include, how much is my home worth? Would I benefit from selling?
Don’t just focus on the business, showcase your personal life, especially if it can be relatable to an audience. An agent who is a dog owner with a big backyard can showcase this on social media and help the audience know what they need in a house where big dogs will also be residing. Maybe as an agent, you are also a parent, do videos on what every parent should look for when buying a home. All of these engagement posts will benefit you as an agent and can bring in more clients, as well as build relationships with existing, and past clients.
All in all, use social media to market yourself and your business!
Open Houses
Open houses are a great way to attract new business and sell yourself as well as sell the home. Think of this as a networking event, and dress to impress. Bring marketing materials that include brochures, business cards, flyers etc. Use this time to engage with everyone that has come to the open house. Ask questions that include, what is it about this house that grabbed their attention, how does it fit in their criteria of wants and needs. Not only should there be a business card left for these potential clients but take down their information as well. Real estate agents can have a sign-in sheet for the attendees, this way there is room for follow-up.
Publicity
<img src="https://assets.site-static.com/userfiles/1385/image/real-estate-publicity.jpg" width="900" height="300" alt="Real Estate Publicity" title="Real Estate Publicity" />
Once an agent has established themselves in the industry, it is a good time to start thinking about gaining publicity. Real estate agents spend their time marketing themselves to clients, now it's time to pitch to the media. Pitching a story to the media will help gain exposure and showcase the talents as a real estate agent. An alternative to pitching a full story is to offer expertise on real estate in print media. There are a number of websites that can connect an agent to a journalist; journalists may send out queries for an article they are working on, and an agent can respond to the interview questions which will in turn gain exposure.
Join a Team
There are many professions where teamwork is how the majority of the workday is spent. Real estate agents however can work alone if they choose to do so. Having said that, having two minds work together as one may be beneficial to all involved. Agents who work together may have to split commission but it is important to note that teaming up will more than likely increase business, which in turn increases income.
Working with others can allow for knowledge of the market throughout the whole region rather than just the neighborhood you specialize in. Team members can bounce ideas off each other when finding themselves in a tough and sticky situation. When one agent stumbles upon a problem, a team member may have the perfect solution as they have gone through something similar in the past. Bouncing ideas off each other when brainstorming ways to market themselves, or engage their audience on social media is another great example of teamwork that can allow for agents to be more successful.

Knowledge is Power
<img src="https://assets.site-static.com/userfiles/1385/image/knowledgable-real-estate-agent.jpg" width="900" height="300" alt="Knowledgeable Real Estate Agent" title="Knowledgeable Real Estate Agent" />
As a new agent, familiarizing yourself with market conditions, researching the neighborhood you will be working in and understanding clients’ needs will be a huge factor in determining success. New agents need to understand home value and how it can change. It is also important to know what comparable homes will be going for in a standard home-two to three bedrooms with two bathrooms.
When an agent becomes more established they can consider expanding their knowledge and research the areas outside of their local market. A successful real estate agent will know the sale prices, how many days a house will usually stay on the market, and the average number of homes that go onto the market each week. Knowing this important information can allow for better communication with clients. If an agent wants to be successful in the industry, they should read their industry news and make sure they are keeping up to date on the market trends and what will affect property value.
With the right knowledge and ability to market yourself, being a successful real estate agent will come naturally. Just remember to attend open houses and take advantage of all the right tools available to you as an agent. Enjoy becoming the new best agent in town!<br /><br />Google Reviews

It is easy to become overwhelmed when you enter the home buying market. Friends, family, colleagues, and even acquaintances will give you their opinions if you are a first time home buyer. While most of them are looking out for your best interest, they are not fully aware of what is happening in the housing market.
It is important for you to be prepared and have your own questions ready. No matter what other opinions you are getting, you are the one buying the home and your comfort level will help make your final decision. Here are three important questions to ask before you purchase a home.
1. Why am I Buying a Home?
Regardless of the finances, it is important to think about what made you want to buy a home in the first place. Usually the reasons don’t have to do with money. Instead, home buyers are focused on how the house will impact their family in the future. A study done by the Joint Center for House Studies at Harvard found there are four reasons people buy a home. Those reasons include schools for your children, a safe environment, more room for your family to grow, and control of your own space.
These factors are the most common reasons people look to buy a new home. When you ask yourself why you are looking to purchase a home, do any of those factors come up? Spend time with your spouse or family members who are involved in this decision and determine why you want a home in the first place. Creating this list will help when searching for a home and can help your real estate agent find the best home for your needs.

2. What is the Trend with Home Values?
Our current economy and housing market is strong. That means home values and mortgage rates are increasing. If you are looking to purchase a home but want to stay within a budget, it may be in your best interest to move quickly. It is forecasted for these trends to continue in an upward motion, causing home values to continue to increase.
3. What About Current Mortgage Rates?
The ticket price is not the only thing you should be concerned with when purchasing a home. Mortgage rates are always changing and can have a huge impact on your monthly payments. Current trends show mortgage rates are rising. This is something to consider if you are debating the right time to purchase a home, since the rates may be even higher down the road.

Bottom Line
You and your family are the only ones who can determine the right time to purchase your dream home. It is important to decide exactly why you want a new home for your family and decide on a budget that will be comfortable moving forward. This budget may affect the amount of time you have to search for a home, since home prices and mortgage rates are increasing. 2019-05-01T10:48:00-07:002021-09-03T13:18:23-07:00Chris Nevada
