Solutions for Financially Stressed Properties Owners
The real estate market of today, is certainly a lot different and riskier. In a "normal" market, 1-3% of homes would be a distressed property. Today, in our area this is running well above this range. Whatever your situation, it will be most helpful to you to work with a real estate professional who knows the market, knows the risks and how to navigate "waters."

Exipred Listings or Listings Not Selling:
If you have listings that are about to expire or you have expired listings, we can help in two ways: (1) We can structure options contracts that allow your seller to get more than current market, gets you immediate money and a commission when the property is sold–usually in 6 to 18 months.(2) We can walk you through the process (consulting fee) or we can handle the transaction through our network, and also market the property to tenant-buyers in your market. You get a commission.
Listing Agents With Luxury Properties:
This is the scenario–the property owner is underwater with repect to the mortgage–is selling because they are struggling to make payments. They do want to remain in their home, but see no other solution than selling.
Commissions will depend upon how the numbers work. You would know before hand what you might expect.
Our Solution:
- Our investment group negotiates to purchase JUMBO loans (from $500,000 to $5,000,000) from homeowners lender, at a discount.
- We negotiate a new loan with a new lender which has a significant reduction in principle from the orginal loan.
- Homeowner remains in their home without damaging their credit
- You get paid, just as if your client bought another house, except in this case it's a new loan. There are criteria that prospective loan-workout clients must meet. All you need to do is make the introduction. We'll share with you how the numbers work out and what you could expect in the way of compensation--you'd also have to be amember of my referral community. (more about that, soon)
Again, Commissions will depend upon how the numbers work. You would know before hand what you might expect.

” Ilisted my Oaktie, SC home with John March at a time when the market can best be described as very rough for sellers of homes, with lots of homes to choose from, and rocky market conditions. John showed me the reasoning behind his price range recommendation and helped me price my home accordingly. Inside of two weeks, we had an offer and a contract. John was there every step of the way, and he also kept me informed as to progress on a regular basis. John is someone you can trust to do what he says he will do.”
