Why you should be more involved in your Neighborhood Foreclosures.

Foreclosures are increasing at a rapid pace and more properties are in the market today than the previous 3 years. Because of such of increase in such a rapid pace many lenders, borrowers and neighborhoods are slow to adapt to the new Real Estate Market.   Purchasing Miami Foreclosures can have many benefits such as buying below market value, closing in 30 days, affordable homes, but as there's a benefit there's also draws backs that foreclosures have in a neighborhood. Here's why you should be more involved in your Neighborhood foreclosures.

Insect haven

Many Miami Foreclosures today are vacant and can have attracted many unwelcome visitors. I have been to Miami Foreclosures where as I'm entering the property I observe a manifestation of all type of insects having a cat for a meal. Not to mention the odor that's being released from a dead cat can leave you with a memorable experience.  

Dangers of a Green Pool

Pools are enjoyed and can be the center piece for family reunion or get together.  Many homeowners who are forced out due to foreclosure leave the pool unclean and unmaintained.  Now many neighborhoods are witnessing green pools and unkempt homes. Green pool can be the breeding ground for millions of potentially disease carrying mosquitoes more reason why to call health officials as soon as you see a green pool.

Foreclosure nightmare

As I'm viewing the home and I'm entering the back room my heart suddenly stops cold I couldn't hear or move a muscle. I immediately turned pale white it seemed as if I saw a ghost or the image of GOD himself. I was speech less and began to sweat. As I am trying to get a grip on myself I decided to say a word. After a long 10 seconds which seemed like 5 hours I suddenly whisper in a freighted tone "Don't worry I am just seeing the home".  And I began to back pedal slowly until I rushed to the front door. There was a group of guys they seemed homeless smoking a substance that is not legal here in the states. I quickly left the home still shocked and regretting not calling the police. I began to think about the outcome if it was my assistant Maria showing the home or a neighborhood teenager being curious would the outcome be different I hope not. But Vacant homes is not a bank problem it is everybody's problem.

Solution:

 You as a home owner or neighbor should have a list of Neighborhood Foreclosures in your area not less or more than a mile from your home in all directions. The homes within a mile are the homes that affect your neighborhood the most. Visit the homes and make two categories. Your first a category should be the homes that are being sold from a private seller and the other category should be the homes that are bank owned, foreclosures, or short sale. Once you identify the Miami Foreclosure that are vacant make it a routine to drive by and inspect the property. * Please note direct neighbors are sometimes the best alliance because it affects them directly. If homeowners or neighbors are not interested call the city code enforcement department they will love to assist you they will penalize the homeowner and the bank where it hurts them the most. So get them involve keep them inform of the drawbacks and danger of having an unkempt home. This is a neighborhood effort and can only be accomplished as a Team.
