Free Foreclosure Lists!

I have heard advertisements on the radio lately that tell me to get the list of foreclosures and I will find a great deal on a home.  Is that true?

Having a list of foreclosure properties in your area can be very valuable when trying to locate a home.  However, you need to ask yourself how old is this list?  Foreclosure homes go under contract daily and not all lists are updated daily.  If you find a home on the list that you like...then what?  

The best source of information on foreclosures as well as all homes in your area is a Realtor.  Realtors have the knowledge and experience to negotiate your contract whether the property is a bank owned property or privately owned.  Many agents are familiar with the bidding wars that often occur over foreclosure or bank owned properties and they can help guide you thru the process. 

While much of our Collin County market has more than its fair share of foreclosures, not all Realtors are experianced in this area.  Dealing with foreclosures, short sales and HUD property is all togather differant than the traditional home buying process.  Be sure your agent has successfully worked with bank owned homes.  Many of the problems that come up in purchasing foreclosures come from lack of experience with this all to gather differant process.

Whether you are looking for your first home, second home, or an investment property I can provide you with the knowledge, support and experiance you need so that your next purchase is a good investment.  I will work hard to negotiate the best deal for you and help to make your closing as stress free as possible.  If you do not already have an agent please call me today.  I am here to help!
