Do You Know The Real Estate Terms From Pre-Approval Letter To Townhouse?
Having a basic understanding of real estate terms is always helpful when you are buying or selling a property. What we will look at in this series of articles are definitions starting with “Pre-Approval Letter.”
a) Pre-Approval Lender Letter. This is a writing from a lender where a potential buyer has approval to borrow a stated amount of money from his firm based on having documented all the personal information needed has been stated. Aside from the final approval being only subject to the lender’s receiving a copy of a contract to purchase real estate, there is also a satisfactory appraisal of that real estate, and its underwriting department’s review of all pertinent information. This would also mean that the buyer qualifies so long as the property does and no changes occur.
b) Pre-Qualification Lender Letter. This is also known as a writing from a lender stating that a potential buyer is able to get a loan in a named amount. Here, it is typically stated that the price of real property to be purchased, and what information the lender had when forming his opinion. A lender’s opinion is worth more than if he just based it on what the borrower told him when he has pulled a borrower’s credit file.
Real Estate, or Real Property The ground, any plants growing in it, any minerals under it, and any buildings or other improvements built on it is what this refers to.
Septic System. A self contained means of disposing of sewerage which tends to intimidate city dwellers is what this is also called. The simple version is a holding tank in which enzyme and bacterial action decomposes the waste material and buried lines in a drainage field which uses soil to strain out what remains. This actually works well when it comes to soil which percolates well (water drains through it quickly). More elaborate septic systems are often needed in areas with heavy, clay soil and in areas with a high water table. Totally unsuited for septic systems and cannot be built on until public sewer is available are some of the properties.
5.Title Insurance Knowing the insurance that will compensate the insured for the value of his ownership or collateral position in real property if a person not thought to be a current owner materializes as an owner is very important. When property was owned by many heirs a generation or two ago, I have seen this come into play.
Townhouse. Also known as a single family attached dwelling unit with common walls.
