Finding Your Religion with Real Estate Searches
By Glenn Roberts Jr., Friday, May 30, 2008.Bookmarking Sites
StopWandering.com, a Web site now in beta, displays real estate listings in proximity to synagogues in the United States. Another site, ShalomHome.com, offers referrals to real estate professionals who offer to guide clients to synagogues and other resources in a community.
There are a range of faith-focused real estate sites on the Internet: MuslimRealEstate.com offers a "One Stop Shop" for Muslim real estate services, according to a Web site description, "From apartments to mansions to masjids (mosques)."
Other faith-based real estate sites include LDSRealtorOC.com, LDSAgents.com; the Christian Real Estate Network at HisMove.com; and Christian Real Estate Brokers Association at http://www.americanchristians.org/ChristianRealEstateBrokers.htm.
Meanwhile, religious preference was a topic in a legal case filed by a Chicago lawyers' group against online classifieds and community site craigslist.org. The lawyers' group, which alleged craigslist violated the federal Fair Housing Act, objected to the phrase "Catholic Church and beautiful Buddhist Temple within one block" in a post at the site as a sign of religious preference, for example, while craigslist viewed the example as "helping people zero in on properties most attractive to their preferences and no more implying exclusion than 'elementary school within five minutes' walk,'" according to an opinion issued by the U.S. Court of Appeals in that case. Craigslist ultimately prevailed in the case, as the court found craiglist was just a messenger and not liable for discriminatory posts by site users (see Inman News report).

Here is why owner occupied 4 plex makes sense:
1.Qualifying for a first time home buyers loan on a primary residence easier.
2.You need less money down.
3.Rental income helps qualify.
4.You now have a primary home and an investment in one transaction.
5.Potential cash-flow or you could pay for your primary unit with the other three units cash-flow.
6.When you decide to move you have a 4th unit that becomes a rental.
7.On site property manager.

Very interesting sites. I have had clients ask how close churches are to properties. So these sites may be a good way to fill a niche.

Kindly allow me to share some information regarding Cyprus property laws,
Cyprus lawyers can charge, by law, a fixed amount for Probate work, typically in excess of 12% of the estate value. That is a whopping 12,000 euros for every 100,000 euros of worldwide property and investment assets, a very expensive exercise which could be avoided by planning ahead. For further information on matters relating to Limassol Houses do visit http://limassolhouses.co.uk

You never know what is most important to a buyer. I think there are many things including being close to places of worship that people are interested in. Some religions do not drive on Sundays so they would need to be within walking distance. I know schools were important to me when looking for property. I found tons of websites that gave me that kind of information. A real estate agent should be able to answer questions about the communitiy and more than just the actual property so websites like this are especially helpful. Brought to you by Brewer Caldwell
