More Charleston & Summerville Foreclosures for Sale Soon

Foster Smith (Carolina One Real Estate) — Thu, 19 Apr 2012 13:47:26 -0700

After releasing this Charleston Market Update Video last month concerning the foreclosures which are beginning to come on the Summerville & Charleston market, I’ve had a few follow-up questions….

When are the foreclosures going to come up for sale?
- They are going to be put on the market in stages so as not to swamp the market all at once. This began in March. The paperwork that has held so many of them up is no being resolved and pushed through.
Will the foreclosures be availabe through the Charleston MLS?
- The foreclosures will be listed on the Charleston MLS just like any other properties would be. The banks will turn them over to realtors for marketing and sale. They will show up as “Lender Owned” properties.

If you would like a list of Charleston foreclosures emailed to you please fill out the Foreclosure Request Form on my website.

Reasons People Buy a Home

Foster Smith (Carolina One Real Estate) — Mon, 16 Apr 2012 12:26:49 -0700

We enjoyed being able to let them ride their bikes to the tennis courts for an afternoon game. Often the request to ride to “downtown” for an ice cream cone from Guerins was made. They would window shop on the Main Street of Summerville and sometimes spend their own money on special gifts for friends and family....Continue Reading at The Summerville & Charleston Real Estate Blog.
