Louisville Metro Foreclosures and Shorts Sales of Homes $250,000 and Over

Shhh Louisvile and Oldham County Homes for Sale

Daren Bailey (Coldwell Banker McMahan) — Tue, 19 Jan 2010 16:45:44 -0800

I wanted to let you know how I have been having success with clients buying and selling homes even before we put them on the market. I have been working with several folks who are looking to buy and sell homes in Louisville, Cretwood, LaGrange and Buckner that the rest of the home buyers and sellers don't know about.

Through my years of working with clients and constantly networking with other agents, I am putting together inside information on homes for sale and homes being sought that could sell and never hit the market. If you have a specific neighborhood you want to buy in or want to sell your home but not ready to officially put it on the MLS, I can immediately start looking for a potential seller of a home you want or buyers for your current home.

Just let me know what you are trying to accomplish and I will add it to my "pocket listing" database to see what we can find. Also, if you know of anyone else that might benefit from this, let me know or pass on this email.

Let me know how I can help you.

Real Estate Deals in todays Market Longwood Goshen KY

Daren Bailey (Coldwell Banker McMahan) — Wed, 28 Oct 2009 12:39:55 -0700

As I mentioned before, I think corporate relocation owned properties are hidden deals in this market. Usually in good condition, not much work needed and relo companies willing to take a hit to move the properties.

Another potential area for excellent real estate deals in this market are new construction executive style inventory homes. I don't have specific knowledge of what builders might come off of the prices, but I think there is potential to negotiate.

For example, Longwood is a great subdivision in Goshen. Its proximity to the schools is excellent and it has a community pool, tennis courts and clubhouse. Very impressive. As of today, there are 24 homes for sale in the neighborhood. Of those 15 are new construction ready to go. The new construction homes are price from $499,000 up to $770,000. Some of these have been on the market a year plus closing in on 2 years. Also, only 2 homes have sold in Longwood this year according to the mls, so if my math is correct, there is about 10 years worth of inventory on the market right now. Ouch. It would make sense that is a builder had an offer from a ready, willing and able buyer, they might not mind coming of the price to move some of the current inventory.

If this makes sense to you and you are looking to move to the Goshen area and want to find a deal, give me a call at 502-807-5648 or send me an email at info@familymoves.com

Better than Short Sales and Forclosures

Daren Bailey (Coldwell Banker McMahan) — Thu, 22 Oct 2009 14:11:22 -0700

As I have mentioned in my last few posts, I think there are deals to be had with corporate relocation properties. Many times the homes are in move in condition and can be bought at below market prices. The owners have transferred and they have taken a buyout from their company and it is now up to the relo company to move the house. They do not want to sit on it and can afford to take a bit of a loss to get it out of inventory.

Here is a link to homes for sale in the Louivsille area that have a relocation company involved. This link is good fo several days, but if it has expired, email me at info@familymoves.com and I will get you an updated list.

Louisville KY Relocation Properties

Example of a Corp Relocation Good Deal in Louisville KY

Daren Bailey (Coldwell Banker McMahan) — Tue, 20 Oct 2009 13:41:04 -0700

This house was originally listed at $374,900, last time it sold it transferred for $355,000. I had folks that would have done a full price contingent offer, but the relocation company would not do a deal contingent on the sale of the buyer's house. So, a ready willing and able buyer came along and pick it up for $311,000. It closed this morning. Why I like this comapred to a short sale or foreclosure, the house is in move in condition, you don't have to replace carpet, the furnace, update kitchen and baths. The seller's were not in a distressed situation, they were just transferred and the relocation company has deep enough pockets to get the house moved under market value. Let me know if you or anyone you know is lookingh for a deal and I will see if there are any relocation properties that might work. Email me at info@familymoves.com.
