I was working on a Roanoke VA foreclosure today that will be hitting the market sometime in the near future. I was amazed at the condition the previous owner left the home in! There was dog and cat feces everywhere! Everywhere means, on the carpet, hardwoods, stairs, laundry room, kitchen and the screened in porch. All of the carpets will have to be replaced and the decking will have to be pressure washed to hopefully make this home livable again.
Where has the pride gone? It is bad enough that someone is in a position where they will lose their home but why destroy it? Why bring the value of the neighborhood down? Why take the cabinets out of the home?
Why take the heating system? Out of spite? I just don't understand.
I do have a great idea though.....don't get foreclosed on! Work with the bank on a loan modification! If that doesn't work and you cannot afford your home, sell it! If you owe more than it is worth, do a short sale!
We work on short sales in Roanoke, Salem VA, Botetourt, Bedford, Franklin and Vinton.....we know what we are doing and a homeowner can get out of the sticky mess they are in without losing everything. We are here to help...call us.
