			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Think like a buyer.</strong></p>
<p><span id="more-100"></span> You are not just selling a house, you are selling shelter, security, lifestyle and dreams. People always want the best for themselves and your home should represent the buyer&#8217;s answer to this goal. Put yourself in the buyer&#8217;s shoes. Remember, they arrive at your front door wanting to find the right home. Let it be your home. Every room in your home will create a desire for the buyer to stay.</p>

Only trouble is they are completely different. The stock market is a single entity. It&#8217;s prices are consistence. For instance if you buy stock in California or Chicago it is the same price. But if you buy a house in Detroit it is not the same price. There is no <strong>one </strong>market.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>by Linda M. Darrigo, Realtor®</p>
<p>There are some great potential <strong>tax benefits </strong>for buyers of real estate. The interest paid on a mortgage loan may be tax deductible. The Property Tax paid on the property may also be tax deductible. Points paid in order to close a mortgage loan on a property may also be deductible. However, if points paid to close a loan are rolled in to the loan amount and financed,they may <strong>not</strong> be deductible in full for that year&#8217;s taxes. They may <strong>instead</strong> be deductible over the life of the loan. These potential tax benefits can help to defray the cost of real estate. I would urge anyone investing in real estate to consult with a CPA regarding the specific possible tax protection they may enjoy.</p>
