Are You Chasing After Foreclosures?

Tom Day - Pompano Beach, FL Real Estate (Re/Max in Motion) — Tue, 10 Nov 2009 15:28:49 -0600

If you having been making offers on foreclosed properties lately, you probably already know that competition among buyers here is South Florida has been getting intense over the course of the last four to six months. This is especially true for properties valued under $200,000.

I have have listed a number of bank owned properties this year. Also known as REOs (for Real Estate Owned). Since about April every single one of them priced under $200,000, have had multiple offers and many have been bid up well over the asking price. I had one listing in a desirable neighborhood of Deerfield Beach with an asking price of $145,000. It had 36 showings in the first 24 hours it was one the market. Cars literally clogged the road in front of it the first day. My phone rang off the hook. It had a half dozen offers and sold for cash above asking price in two days. That was in June and since then the number of REOs on the market has shrunk compared to the total number on the market. More recently, I had a bank owned condo that was listed for $48,900, sell for $58,000. Thats 19% over asking price.

I have been working with one investor who has purchased more than ten properties from me this year most of them in the same neighborhood. However, we have not had the best offer at least half the time. An associate of mine has made offers on behalf of one of his buyers for nine different properties and lost each time. Once when offering 25% over asking price!

On those same examples above I also recieved offers that were 30% and more below asking price. Clearly many of todays buyers are just out of touch with what is really going on in todays market. We are in a situation where the market is over-sold. Prices have retreated from 50% to 75% from the top of the market. Savvy investors see the opportunities out there and are making aggresive offers for cash. They are also competing with first time buyers looking for a home that may never be more affordable.

If you are attempting to purchase an REO in South Florida you are by no means alone. Be prepared to be dissapointed when you aren't the top bidder. I suggest if you are attempting to buy a foreclosure these days that you submit your highest and best offer from the very beginning. Find out what comparable properties have sold for recently and perhaps add to that whatever is within your comfort level. If you are a first time buyer be aware that you are competing with investors. Generally the banks don't favor a cash offer over a financed deal if they are the same amount, but they want to know that the borrower is fully qualified. Your pre-approval letter should state that your income, employment and credit scores have all been verified.

I have been hearing for months now that more foreclosures are on the way. No one has any way of knowing where prices will be in six to twelve months including myself. There is a lot of idle cash out there and we are at a point now where the numbers make a lot of sense to investors. I always felt that was where the eventual bottom would be. Lets hope I'm right.

DESCRIPTION

We bought this property, part of a larger parcel with several rental units, 28 years ago. We lived in this house for 12 years and loved it. Cool in summer, cozy in winter, it has character even before you furnish it. We are splitting the log home off from the rest of the land and buildings, unless it turns out someone wants the entire package. Spacious master bedroom, large, open, living room, dining room and kitchen, with lots of windows. Part wooded, part lawn and great views. New owner will probably want to build a garage as there is no basement or garage. New septic field has been designed and approved by the state and will be installed prior to closing. The house is currently a rental. Current tenants will no doubt want to stay on as renters, as long as you want them to be there, giving you plenty of time to sell your current home. Rent is $1150 (below market), with a month to month lease. If you like log cabins, this could be your next home. Call owners at 802-295-5306.

Building Spotlight - The Breakers

Tom Day - Pompano Beach, FL Real Estate (Re/Max in Motion) — Sat, 17 May 2008 15:20:23 -0500

The Breakers condominium is located at 710 N Ocean Blvd in Pompano Beach, FL. N.

Buyer Says "There's No Sense Of Urgency"

Tom Day - Pompano Beach, FL Real Estate (Re/Max in Motion) — Sun, 27 Apr 2008 20:11:19 -0500

have been working with a lot of Canadians lately. In fact, I have represented a couple of different Canadian buyers who have bought property sight unseen. And they got some great deals. Last week I had a conversation with one other potential buyer who I showed a number of properties in and around the Pompano Beach, FL area. By the time I was able to follow up with him about the properties I showed him and his wife, they were back in Ontario. Their objectives were, they wanted property they could enjoy in a warmer climate, but they also wanted something that would also be a winner financially.

I had found a condo just off the beach that I thought was a potential steal. On top of the market being tough this particular building is having massive renovations done and nothing is selling. The owners are being hit with $40,000 plus in assessments to be paid quarterly for the next couple of years. The present owner had one of the lowest prices in the building AND was willing to pay all of the assessments. My buyer liked it and more importantly his wife liked it. They were going to be in Canada during most of the construction anyway, so it made sense. I was confident they would make an offer.

When I did get a hold of him, we talked for quite a while and the comment that stayed with me since then was "there was no sense of urgency".

Now I have used those exact same words to describe buyers attitudes for some time now. Being a seasoned sales professional I was very disappointed in myself for not being able to overcome that objection right there on the spot. Because I knew what the answer was. I gave up coffee several weeks ago and thats what I blame it on. But enough of my personal problems.

When was the last time there was a "sense of urgency" to buy real estate in South Florida. 2004, maybe into 2005? Was that a good time to buy? Clearly the answer is no. The majority of foreclosures and short sales that are happening today were bought during that time. Prices have declined a good 30% since then. There was also a sense of urgency to buy tech stocks in 1999, and what happened then? My point is don't become part of a herd mentality. A lot of successful investors are contrarians and buy when everyone else is selling. Everyone is selling right now! If you see something you like, and it makes sense, go and make an offer. Then in ten years you will be able to brag that you bought it in 2008.

Building Spotlight - Ocean Colony

Tom Day - Pompano Beach, FL Real Estate (Re/Max in Motion) — Fri, 18 Apr 2008 20:03:32 -0500

Here is the second in a series spotlighting oceanfront condominium buildings in Pompano Beach, FL. This time the featured building is Ocean Colony located at 1620 South Ocean Blvd.

Ocean Colony was built in 1971. It is a sixteen story building. It is shaped like a large L and features one of the largest pool decks in Broward County. There are one, two and three bedroom floor plans. The three bedroom units are 1601 square feet and are all in the stack closest to the beach. The units that are lettered A, B, D, F, K, M, and P all have ocean views. The rest either face north or west.

Ocean Colony is a beautiful building that has had major renovations lately. The most important improvement to potential buyers being all the glass in the building has been replaced with impact resistant glass that eliminates the need for hurricane shutters. Owners were assessed up to $50,000 each for that one improvement alone. The lobby has been remodeled and makes an excellent impression to first time visitors.

There is a security guard on staff 24 hours per day. The amenities include a pool, community room, a well equipped fitness room, and saunas. Residents can use the tennis courts next door at Aquazul. There is a parking garage and outdoor guest parking. On each floor there is a recycling room. The units even have washers and dryers which is unusual for a building built in the early seventies.

Pets are not allowed in the building. Leasing is allowed after the first year of ownership.

Of the 201 units in the building only 5 for for sale, which is unusually low in this market of very high inventories. The residents must be happy there. Asking prices range from $245,000 for a one bedroom up to $579,000 for a two bedroom penthouse. There are no three bedroom units currently for sale. See the inventory here.

Building Spotlight - Pompano Atlantis

Tom Day - Pompano Beach, FL Real Estate (Re/Max in Motion) — Sun, 30 Mar 2008 15:34:23 -0500

This begins a series of spotlight articles of individual buildings along the A1A in Pompano Beach and Lauderdale-By-The Sea. If you are looking for a condo on or near the beach there is a lot to choose from. Each building has its own unique features and personalities. This should help you make a more informed decision.

Pompano Atlantis was built in 1972. It is an 18 story building with 240 units. The first three stories are the parking garage. Access the the garage is manned by a security guard at all times. Each unit gets one assigned space and there is guest parking on the third level. It has four elevators. Two on the east side of the building and two on the west side of the building. It has its own in house management staff with an office on the first floor.

Amenities include a pool with large deck overlooking the beach, gas grills, a fitness room, mens and womens sauna. There is a banquet room for functions on the third floor. Each floor has a coin-operated laundry room. There is a car wash area on the first floor of the garage.

There are just two different floor plans. The corner units have a split floor plan and the rest has the bedrooms side by side, On each floor the Apartments are lettered A through P. The corner units lettered A and P directly overlook the beach and ocean. The corner units lettered H and I have views of the intracoastal. Although from the first several floors the intracoastal can't be seen. Units A through H have southern exposure and units I through P have northern exposure. The further an apartment is from the east side of the building the less of an ocean view there is. From the north side of the building there used to be a great view of the Pier to the north. The new Sonata building is just being completed and has partially blocked those views. To the south is The Pompano Aegean which is very similar to the Atlantis.

Over the past several years the building has had nearly a total renovation. The exterior has been painted. The lobby has been remodeled. The hallways have been re-carpeted and painted. The pool has been resurfaced and so has the deck. It shows very nicely.

I recently sold a unit on the 18th floor. It was in need of updating but my buyers saw the potential and the price was attractive. What really sold them was the the pool area and we spent some time just hanging out there. While there my buyers talked to several owners in the building and they were so friendly and helpful they actually closed the deal for me. Currently there are 11 units for sale in the building from $319, 000 to 449,000. Recent sales have been from under $300,000 to $410,000 for a corner unit.

T-Mobile Doesn't Care

Tom Day - Pompano Beach, FL Real Estate (Re/Max in Motion) — Mon, 25 Feb 2008 18:20:58 -0600

Us agents know how dependant we are on our cell phones. I imagine most of us have the maximum time plan available. I have have been with T-Mobile for about five years That means I have spent $4000 to $5000 on them during that time. Today I learned how much I meant to them as a customer.

My Motorola phone died today. The warranty expired a month ago. T-Mobile offered to sell me a new one for $80.00. If I was a new customer they would sell it to me for $29.00. Its not like I expect a free phone. I told them I just want to treated as well as they treat a new customer, and reminded the representive I talked to how much I have spent on their service in recent years. His response was If I wait eight more months I can get the additional discount. I told him if I have to wait that long I'll be someone elses customer by then. If I were to stay with them for another five years I would likely spend another $5000. But they will let me go for $50.00.

My solution is to charge up my old ugly phone, tell everyone on activerain, and wait out my contract. If I change one mind about T-Mobile its worth it. If T-Mobile comes to their senses I may delete this post.
