bank owned properties: Multiple Offers on Bank-Owned Properties - 04/10/09 09:45 AM
I understand offers come in on bank-owned properties and the listing Realtor submits those offer to the asset manager and the asset manager holds on to the offers for several days (or weeks in some cases) waiting for higher offers to come in.  What I find in some cases, is the listing Realtor will tell a fellow Realtor representing the buyer, there are multiple offers in on the property but will not reveal any information of what the offers are.  I understand to a certain degree that they represent the seller and their best interest, but refusing to give me an … (0 comments)

Don't assume the Web is all you need to purchase a home.  Buying a home in a market where short sales, foreclosures and bankowned … (0 comments)

bank owned properties: Buyers and Sellers Need to be Educated on the Short Sale Process - 10/06/08 01:42 PM
Lets face it, we have another 4 to 5 years of short sales, foreclosures and bank owned properties in the Tampa Bay area.  It is unfortunate, but it is reality.  The bulk of the homes that are currently on the market are short sales so it is important for Realtors to educate the buyers on the short sale process.  If a buyer is in a hurry, then a short sale probably isn't a good option for them because it could take three months or more for the bank to either approve or disapprove an offer.  The buyers also needs to understand … (1 comments)
