Foreclosure Lists – We’ll Give Them to you for FREE & Show You How to Use Them

It’s no secret that the California Real Estate Market is saturated with Foreclosures. As we work our way through this unique economic situation buyers are given the rare opportunity to sift through lists of properties at drastically reduced prices.

Would you like to access up-to-date lists of foreclosures in your area? Well, then check out our Foreclosure Radar.  This service will allow you to easily browse through the most current foreclosure lists available today.

Here you will find reliable information on properties in every phase of the foreclosure process. This includes preforeclosure (when a homeowner is given a notice that they are in default), auction (when the lender takes bids on foreclosed property in a public forum), and REO (or real estate owned, where the lender takes ownership of a property that fails to sell at auction).

You no longer have to scrape together scattered information to make informed decisions.

Just click here and start searching through our complimentary foreclosure lists.

But remember — buying a foreclosure is not as simple as buying other properties.  There are additional processes, laws and regulations.  We highly recommend you work with a real estate professional to guide you through this complex transaction.

Quick Tips on Short Sales and YOUR Credit

SHORT SALES & YOUR CREDIT

One of the most frequent questions that homeowners want

to know is what happens to their credit score as the result of

a short-sale. Here are a few points to remember.

.

1) When you negotiate a short-sale, the homeowners may

still owe the difference between the mortgage balance

and the discounted sales price. This amount can still be

collected via a “Deficiency Judgment.” If granted, this

judgement may adversely affect the homeowners and

their credit report (not unlike other judgments).

.

2) The best way to avoid the deficiency judgment is to ask

pursuit of any deficiency judgment.”

.

3) Remember that the difference between the mortgage

balance and the short sale may be declared as income on

their tax return by means of a “1099.”

In dealing with any short sale, the homeowner should always

speak with their accountant and/or attorney to see how this

sale will affect them.
