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.
The asking
price for a house is an invitation to make an offer rather than an offer that must be
accepted.

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. Get

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.

Price declines
have made this the best time to buy real estate. The inventory of
property for
sale gives buyers an incredible selection. The number of for
sale is greater than it has been in 15 years. The current favorable market
conditions may not last much longer. Research shows that prices are
beginning to stabilize. Mortgage rates are near all-time lows. which now
means your monthly payments are lower and more affordable. Recent voter
approval of Amendment 1 allows Florida homeowners to transfer their “Save
Our Homes” tax benefit from their old home to a newly purchased home.
Upsizing or downsizing, this is the best time to buy. Real estate continues
to be a great financial investment.
