DeHoff Realtors Among Rare Group Nationally Certified to Work With Military Homebuyers

Certified Military Housing Specialist Course educates housing professionals on the uniqueness of guiding the military through the process of purchasing a home
Canton, Ohio – DeHoff Realtors has achieved the rare distinction of becoming nationally certified to work with and understand the uniqueness of guiding military borrowers through the process of purchasing a home. DeHoff real estate agent David Angione has graduated from the Certified Military Housing Specialist Course, which is exclusively offered by USA Cares, Inc., a national military assistance nonprofit that gives emergency financial support to military and their families.

This course aims to educate real estate professionals on the differences in working with military communities by training them on the unique lifestyle circumstances often typical in the military.
The course and certification also helps real estate professionals make sense of the military’s “language,” ranking and pay system, all major factors in determining how much a military member can afford when purchasing a home.
“DeHoff Realtors is sensitive to the military’s unique needs when purchasing a home,” said David Maltese, General Sales Manager. “With his understanding of the military’s world and language, David is better equipped to serve our nation’s military and their families with the highest standard.”
Besides educating real estate professionals, the course gives them advice regarding foreclosure prevention in the military community – all for the purpose of better serving military customers and coaching them on how to avoid mortgage delinquencies.

5 Questions Buyers Shouldn't Overlook

Your home buyers find the house they love, they’ve had it inspected, and they’re ready to go to closing. But to make sure they stay happy after they move in, real estate professionals say that buyers need to add the following items to their checklist:

1. How’s the noise? Real estate professionals recommend that buyers check the noise level surrounding the home at various times of day and days of the week, such as the weekday versus the weekend. For example, is the home in a flight path or on an ambulance or fire truck route?
2. Are there any easements or encroachments on the property? An easement will allow others to use a portion of your property for a specific purpose. A land survey will reveal property lines, any easements, or encroachments—such as from a garage or fence—from neighbors either intentionally or unintentionally invading the property line.
3. Is the house up to code? Ensure that the home’s previous owners did not fail to get a permit for any major renovation project. It’ll become the buyer’s responsibility otherwise.
4. What are the school, park, and police districts? School district boundaries can affect the home’s resale value and marketability so they're important to note, even if the buyer doesn’t have children. Also, real estate professionals say it’s important to determine whether a home lies within the local park district or not. “The upside of living in it: You pay in-district fees for fitness classes. The downside: Your tax bill might be higher,” The Chicago Tribune reports. “The same goes for library and community college districts. In-district library cards are free and tuition is less, but you are likely to pay steeper taxes.”
5. What are the local rules? Even when the buyers move in, they’ll still have to abide by city and county rules. Buyers should check with any rules by their homeowner association, if applicable, beforehand too. "If you're in the trades and your van has your company name on it, you may not be able to park it in front of the home because it is considered 'business signage,'" says Ralph Schumann, a Schaumburg, Ill., attorney.
