foreclosed: THAT Was an Expensive Secret! - 04/11/12 02:20 PM
Once in a while we are asked to "Watch" a house that is distressed, or in the process of being foreclosed. It is not fun but it is a part of life in West Michigan. REO properties seem to be declining but there are still some going through this in Muskegon, Oceana, Newaygo, Ottawa, and Kent Counties. We drive by and take pictures now and then and may talk with the borrower. We try to learn if they intend to redeem the house or if they are going to just walk away at the end of the redemption period and let the lender … (17 comments)

foreclosed: Let It SNOW! - 01/20/12 11:22 AM
Bring it on! I am ready!
We need the snow! Many businesses depend on real winter weather. The snowmobile dealers, cross- country ski shops, and sporting good stores, are getting busier as well as the towing companies and body shops! Muskegon Lake is getting frozen over and we will soon have people flocking to the waterfront in Norton Shores and North Muskegon to get out on the ice and catch some nice fish. Of course, Whitehall and Montague will have their fair share of shantys out on White Lake as well. Of course, the Winter Sports Complex at the Stae Park is really hopping … (2 comments)

foreclosed: On The Upswing? - 10/13/11 09:25 AM
Back in September CoreLogic posted a report telling of a decline in Shadow Inventory (distress properties that are in danger of being, or in the process of being foreclosed). They went on to explain that this is keeping home prices down. Don't tell anyone but it doesn't seem to be holding the prices down in West Michigan.
The total number of sales in Muskegon County during the first nine months of 2010 was 1447 with a slight decline to 1432 sales in the same period in 2011
The average sale price in Muskegon County in the first nine months of 2010 was $80,799. with an average of … (2 comments)

foreclosed: In One Day Sampson Killed 1000 Philistines with the Jawbone of an Ass, - 02/21/11 05:53 PM
and thousands of transactions are killed each year using the same weapon!
I stole this from a trainer I am working with. Paul goes on to say, "Why sell a house with Blah, Blah, when you could sell it with Blah." In other words, say as little as possible, and listen.
I have always tried to be attentive when taking a class but another instructor actually "Demonstrated" listening skills in a way that I could comprehend it. Gwyn illustrated the process by holding her hand behind and above her head as a parrot would perch and explained that the "Parrot" needs to repeat to me everything … (3 comments)

foreclosed: Sheriff Sale, Foreclosure, Short Sale, Redemption, Upside Down, Under Water, How Can I Help? - 10/28/10 12:58 PM
I believe it was Zig Ziglar that stated: "If you help enough people get what they want, you will get what you want." I like that philosiphy and that works for me! This is especially important when helping people who are in trouble with their homes. I can't imagine how people expect people to shell out money for help when obviously they are already short money. With that in mind, I will try to help you understand your options so you can decide what works best for you.
Many people with perfectly good credit have lost their job and have seen … (0 comments)
