foreclosures: Asset Management Companies are jumping on the Short Sale "Bandwagon"!
- 12/02/09 04:28 PM
We've all heard about "Phantom Inventory" and the next "Wave" of foreclosures and subsequent REO's, but right now Short Sales are the thing. In my Market, they're everywhere. About six months ago we saw a slowdown in REO's due to loan modifications, moratoriums and Short Sales. I sent query letters to all of the asset management companies that I work for to see what their thoughts were about managing Short Sales. I received a mixed review. Mostly comments like,"we've considered handling Short Sales but are not currently interested, thank you for your foresight". Well, things are starting to change. Finally......... at least one progressive asset management (7 comments)

foreclosures: Appraisal VS. BPO
- 07/12/08 12:32 PM
Pricing of REO properties is critical if the bank is seriously trying to get it sold in 30 days. This statement may seem obvious to those of us in the business but it's not as easy as one might think. When a Lender assigns a property, one of the first tasks to perform is a Broker Price Opinion or BPO. This requires pulling comps in the area of both listed and sold properties and coming up with an opinion of value. This is a full BPO with interior and exterior photos. The agents need to take into account any repairs the property may need and (16 comments)
foreclosures: What is an REO finder? and other thoughts.
- 07/03/08 06:17 PM
A finder is an outsource company for a lender. Some of the larger lenders use finders to manage their REO assets. In my experience I have received listings in two ways. Either I'm engaged by the lender or I'm engaged by a finder. The finder is an independent asset management company that the lender outsources properties to. The reason they do this, is that right now some of their asset managers have 400 properties in their portfolios. They simply can't handle the workload so they "farm out" some of the business. If you are an approved agent with one of these (1 comments)
foreclosures: Will banks play the seller paid down payment game?
- 06/11/08 05:31 PM
Hello All, I currently have a couple of REO's listed in Ventura County California. I'll be honest when I say that these properties are hard to sell, so I recently got together with a home loan consultant from Countrywide to discuss downpayment assistance programs. The Nehemiah program seems to be the most well known. Although these programs recently came under fire from the FHA, I think they may be a win, win for both qualified buyers who may not have 3% down payment, and the banks trying to get rid of these assets. I have written a couple of query letters to the (3 comments)
foreclosures: REO's, dancin' in the dark
- 06/05/08 06:46 PM
REO's are on the upswing in the Simi Valley/Moorpark area of Ventura County California. I have been listing and selling REO properties for about two years, and some things about them don't get any easier. Never meeting the seller in person. Never meeting the seller's parents, (senior asset management who gives final approval). Coaching the buyer's agent, (constantly having to explain the rules of the game) Having to explain "AS-IS", over and over and..... Countering out all the concessions that buyer's agents write into their offer just out of habit. Having to second guess the market at the time the property gets listed,(after (2 comments)
foreclosures: REO activity "picking up"
- 05/11/08 07:10 AM
REO activity is really picking up in Ventura County California! Another example is a small three bedroom, two bath home that recently went on the market in the $300K range. This home wasn't on the market three days and it had six offers. The Lender came back and countered all of the offers with "highest and best", and so it goes. Another example of the "overbidding frenzy" that occurs when a property is priced right and everybody who is looking for a good deal jumps on it at the same time. I'm seeing more of this all the time and from (1 comments)
foreclosures: REOs,Simi Valley,CA
- 04/19/08 12:47 PM
I just wanted to share a recent experience I've had in listing bank owned properties. I was first assigned this property back in January. I did all of the necessary "chores" like rekeying the locks, lawn maintenance, repair bids, BPO, and property inspection. Then I waited for about two months until the asset manager handling the property emailed me giving me the listing. I was both disappointed and elated at the same time. Disappointed because the seller had not elected to do anything about the "green" swimming pool. Elated because the list price was better than I had hoped. In my (15 comments)
