Banks and lenders determine the final selling price. Foreclosed homes are sold well below the mortgages owed on them.

The main question In today's market is, "what is the just market value of any piece of real estate ?" It's easy to research comparable sales data - when the market is composed of traditional listings with average selling timeframes. Considering the large amount of bank owned properties and short sales ... the housing market has become somewhat lopsided and it's more difficult to get a handle on what a given piece of real estate is worth. It's critical that an experienced agent is contacted and trusted that is in tune with the market conditions and familiar with your area of interest. Deciding on an appropriate price range on a property truly requires extra skill and knowledge.

Foreclosed - Once a bank or lender forecloses on a home, they need to sell it quickly to recoup as much of their loan loss as possible. This is a main factor for lower prices and greater bargains for home buyers. If you're planning to purchase, the sales process is just like buying a property from another owner, except that now the owner is the bank or lender and requires understanding the real estate process involved especially in offer prices and negotiations. You must be pre qualified for a loan or show proof of financial ability in advance of making any offer.

Florida is turning out to be one of the first states to report a one-year bounce from the bottom. Although national existing home sales dropped, Florida reported a 12th consecutive month of sales increases, based on lower property values and a high inventory.

Pre-Foreclosures - The lender posts a notice of public record that the property owner is behind on payments and they intend to foreclose the real estate.

Lenders assume that buyers with larger down payments will have a higher likelihood of being able to close and that they will be less likely to back out should small problems arise with the property. Conventional, non-government loans are the best option when writing a financed offer for a bank owned home. Writing an offer financed by a conventional loan with a good down payment, a strong price, a quick closing date are the best methods for real estate owned by lenders.

REO -The bank has taken back the real estate and the title from the homeowner and now is Real Estate Owned or REO.

Short Sales - All real estate does not qualify for a short sale and not all lenders accept short sales. The short sale process can be less expensive and a better alternative to foreclosure for both the lender and the real estate owner. A short sale can keep the foreclosure record off their personal credit reports. It's also less expensive than going through the court system in a foreclosure lawsuit. A short sale is an alternative to bankruptcy or foreclosed proceedings. Buyers pursuing a short sale will have a much longer wait for their offer to be considered.

Foreclosures have increased significantly across the country, including the Tampa Bay Florida area. U.S. foreclosure filings and bank repossessions continue to increase. Deteriorating property values and higher rates on adjustable mortgages forced owners to give up their real estate.

Pre-Foreclosures - A real estate owner in the pre foreclosure stage can be very motivated to sell. The lender posts a notice of public record that the property owner is behind on payments and they intend to foreclose the real estate. The lender will take it back if the owner doesn't move fast to pay up to date.

Florida ranks second in the nation with foreclosed properties, according to data collected by RealtyTrac, a company that tracks the foreclosure market.
