Carolina List 4 Less is at the forefront of the real estate revolution. No longer are sellers limited to either listing with a traditional realtor at a high commission, or selling their home themselves. We offer you a third option: To be listed on MLS without paying a listing commission!
What is MLS? The Multiple Listing Service (MLS) is a database used by local real estate agents to facilitate the sale of homes in the area. It is a collection of all the listings currently for sale with every Realtor in the area. The MLS is the tool that most Realtors use to find homes for their buyers. Properties that are listed on the MLS also get listed on Realtor.com, which is accessible to everyone (not only Realtors).

The Founding Fathers left one legacy not celebrated on Independence Day but which affects us all. It's the national debt.The country first got into debt to help pay for the Revolutionary War. Growing ever since, the debt stands today at a staggering $11.5 trillion - equivalent to more than $37,000 for each and every American. And it's expanding by more than $1 trillion a year.The mountain of debt easily could become the next full-fledged economic crisis without firm action from Washington, economists of all stripes warn.
The storied, nearly three-century history of Litchfield Plantation is entering another phase with the takeover of the undeveloped sections by a new developer-manager.Scott Trotter, who was also a partner with the developers of DeBordieu and Prince George on Georgetown County's Waccamaw Neck, is buying Litchfield Plantation and is cutting its planned number of residences almost in half.Though that could increase the association fees to homeowners in the long run, it makes the property more valuable for all, and most current owners are very happy with the plans, said Jeff Kirby, who has lived in the plantation for about four and a half years.
Reverse mortgages, under the radar for most of their 20-year existence, are getting new attention from cash-strapped consumers who want them and wary regulators who worry about possible fallout.The mortgages let seniors tap the equity they've built up in their homes, basically allowing them to cash out the value of their house while still living in it. In other words, the bank pays the borrower instead of the other way around, and that's an attractive idea in an economic recession.New legislation has capped some of the associated fees and expanded which houses can qualify for reverse mortgages. The ease of access is another selling point, because the loans don't have any credit or income requirements - which can be hard for a retired person to fulfill because they're no longer pulling in a paycheck.
If you are interested in a reverse mortgage, the government will require you to get counseling from a third-party, government-approved housing counselor before you take one out, so you can also ask questions of your counselor.Question | What are they?Answer | Instead of you paying the bank for your home, the bank pays you. Instead of building equity, you lose it.
