Buy Now, says Foreclosure Expert

Now's the time to pick up properties at fire sale prices, says Ralph R. Roberts, author of Foreclosure Investing for Dummies and Flipping Houses for Dummies.

Foreclosures 


"Properties could double in value over the next 10 years. But you have to be willing to go in, buy them, and hang on for the longer term," he advises.

Attention Foreclosures Buyers, remember....profitable investing in foreclosures requires exhaustive records searches in advance.

Buyers of foreclosures should create a file that contains a range of property information that will establish what the property is worth and help avoid bureaucratic snafus. Here is his list of must-have information:

  • A copy of the foreclosure notice, or notice of default;
  • Title commitment and a 24-month history in the chain of title or the last two recorded documents
  • Deed with the current homeowners' names.
  • Last recorded first mortgage, so you know how much the current homeowners owe.
  • Documentation of all liens against the property, including property tax liens.
  • Map showing the location of the property.
  • Exterior home inspection (with photos and videos), plus neighborhood photos.
  • City worksheet on the property showing all repairs, inspection reports and other information.
  • MLS data showing how much comparable homes are selling for in the area;
  • Tax bills.
  • SEV (standard equalized value) of the property, on which property taxes are based.
  • Any notes documenting conversations with neighbors.

Hi, Lupe - This is a great time for investor buyers (or any buyers for that matter) to get into the market - returns won't be overnight but with a little patience they will make out very well. 

Buyers should get into buying mode before prices start to swing up - Sellers will be less flexible when the market starts to markedly improve.

Jesse & Kathy, thank you for stopping by and sharing your comments and advise to buyers. Buy now when low and sell when high from an investor point of view.   Buy now instead of renting, hold it for few years and build your egg nest one step at a time.

Every day, you'll have opportunities to take chances and to work outside your safety net. Sure, it's a lot easier to stay in your comfort zone.. in my case, business suits and real estate.. but sometimes you have to take risks. When the risks pay off, that's when you reap the biggest rewards. -Donald Trump-
