kentucky: Don't Underestimate The Buyers You Meet At A HUD Owned Property! - 06/03/09 12:53 PM
HUD-HUD-HUD, seems like I have been living, eating and breathing HUD owned properties for the last 9 months!  They have served me well though, keeping me going during the lean months of the winter and through the horrors of the housing market.  All in all, I have met some very solid buyers that are not only looking for deals on HUD or foreclosed properties, but some have mentioned purchasing land or farms for future investment.  Selling farms is what I love doing!  I get to wear my jeans and boots, walk or 4-wheel over acres of farm land and enjoy the great … (3 comments)

kentucky: Success With Selling HUD Owned Properties - 02/07/09 09:23 PM
HUD, do you know what it stands for?  If you do, then you probably have been involved in the sale of a HUD owned property.  If not, it stands for Housing and Urban Development.  HUD's mission is to increase home ownership, support community development, and increase access to affordable housing free from discrimination.  To fulfill this mission, HUD will embrace high standards of ethics, management and accountability and forge new partnerships--particularly with faith-based and community organizations--that leverages resources and improve HUD's ability to be effective on the community level.

kentucky: The Key Just Doesn't Fit! - 01/17/09 10:59 PM
Last Saturday I pulled in the driveway of a foreclosure to preview for a client.  There was an SUV in the driveway and when I got out of my truck they also go out.  I asked if they were there to show the house or meet with a Realtor.  He said no, but that the listing Realtor had given him the lockbox code but he couldn't get it to open.  (In my opinion giving someone other than a Realtor, appraiser, or home inspector a lockbox code is a NO NO!)  I told him and his wife that they could come in … (2 comments)

kentucky: Distressed Property Designation--To Do Or Not To Do Is The Question???? - 01/08/09 02:47 PM
I have been researching the possibility of taking a Distressed Property Designation course, since all I have been showing and selling have been foreclosures.  My broker has teamed with another Exit office in listing HUD foreclosures so I have been picking up some decent buyers looking for a deal.  The buyers have been a mix of investors and owner/occupants. 
The course I am looking at is offered by CDPE and I have read some good reviews through RealTown.com.  The question is, will it help me through the negotiation process of foreclosures and short-sales?  Seems that each one is different depending on … (0 comments)

kentucky: Grand To Be A Grand In Kentucky - 07/03/08 03:32 PM
My husband and I are raising our grandson, Jacob, who is now 7.  He has lived with us since he was 18 months old.  Believe it or not, that change in our lives is what brought me into Real Estate.  The thought of having control of my schedule and time off when I needed it was very appealing.  Well, as most of you know it really doesn't work that way and Jacob is with me on showings, closings, listings appointments, and the list goes on.  Even at 7 he can almost read a listing contract without any help.
It is working … (0 comments)
