alameda home for sale: Property listed for sale is in pre-foreclosure stage - 09/19/17 01:56 PM
Before looking at a property, I researched the status of that property because it had appeared as a pre-foreclosure on another site besides the MLS.
 
I asked the agent an update on that pre-foreclosure. And she said if seller sells at or above list price by next month, the sale will go through because the foreclosure date is not until November 2017. However, there was no mention of this in the confidential remarks. It seems that this should be material fact.
 
What if an offer is accepted on Sept 21, but the buyer runs into a challenge closing in 30 days, and the … (4 comments)

alameda home for sale: Advantage: Advertising a listing as NOT an REO, NOT a short sale - 12/26/09 06:23 AM
With all the challenges we face in showing properties and writing offer on REOs (real estate or bank-owned) and short sales, it is becoming increasingly refreshing to see an ad that says a listing is NOT and REO or NOT a short sale. 
WHY?
Because it's been so frustrating waiting for short sale approval. It's been distressing to see bank-owned properties so trashed. It's been stressful to compete against all cash buyers who appear to win a lot of these bids on REOs.
So when we see a reasonably priced property in a decent neighborhood, and read that it's not an … (17 comments)

This short sale property went on the MLS Saturday. Open house on Sunday. by Monday, we had 5 offers. Wednesday, 7. Friday, 9. And we continued to receive calls inquiring about writing offers.
 

 
Multiple offers
By the following Sunday, and after reviewing the matrix that shows the various terms and conditions of the multiple offers, the sellers countered four. Two of the counter offers came back, and countered at higher prices at almost $100,000 over list price --- and they were only $1,000 apart!
The sellers are overjoyed. And so am I. The offers are over what they … (1 comments)

Comfy, cozy, unassuming bungalow has evolved through the years to accommodate the needs of members of the owner's household.
The front porch was enclosed to so that the owner had a place to give piano lessons. The detached garage was converted into a room with its own bath, so that another member of the household had more private quarters. The dining room was used as a bedroom, but can be easily restored into a dining room.
