Niwot, CO

 Richard Wobbekind, one of my favorite economists, who is with the Colorado Leeds School of business, is predicting that Colorado will have slow steady growth in 2012.  We are not going to see robust growth, but we are going to see growth.  The construction industry which has seen a decline in employment over the last four years is poised to add 2,900 jobs next year.

Either way, there are certain things both sellers and buyers should know about what an as-is clause actually represents.

Contrary to popular belief, an as-is clause in a home purchase contract could mean a number of different things. For a seller, it could mean what you’ve seen in the house is what you should expect to get. Alternatively, a seller could be trying to tell a buyer that he or she is refusing to make any

In order to control incentives and referral fees and lower closing costs, the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act (RESPA) was established back in 1974. Crooked business tactics such as raising the price of real estate transactions and giving incentives illegally were bleeding the consumer and were prevalent among agents, mortgage lenders and development companies. RESPA officials are on the watch when it comes to the real estate settlement process and they not only forbid bribes between lenders and third party settlement agents; they also question mutual referral payments among real estate experts.

Good faith estimates (GFE) became mandatory in January of 2010, however they were first initiated by HUD in November of 2008. Also in addition to a good
