It's a "Sad State of Affairs" or is it "Opportunity Knocking?"
Yes!, even here in Columbus Indiana, it's a sad state of affairs! Or is it opportunity knocking, where the housing market and Real Estate, have been minimally affected by the down turn in the economy, and many homes were ravaged with the Flood.
But is it a "Sad State of Affairs?", or is, "Opportunity Knocking!", a question that is not so easily answered. When people ask me, I say "It's sad for some and opportunistic for others!" With the lowest interest rates in years, that creates a great incentive to buy! The "Sad state of affairs" can be seen in the unemployment rate, the National Economy, and reflected in the stock market.
While checking the weather report and road conditions, I happened to visit the Columbus Sherriff's Website, where I located the next Real Estate Auction calendar, so I checked it out. I was simply in awe! There are 24 homes going on the auction block January 13, 2009, visit the following link to see homes that are available. http://bartholomewco.com/forms_center.php?folder_id=31&icon=31&dept=15
That made me think, so I then checked out Columbus, IN., on Trulia, first for Foreclosures, then Bank Owned, and then Auction, those you can look up on your own. Now imagine all those homes, plus the on hand inventory in the market today! Remember its a Buyer's Market. Should I suggest checking out "Ocwen" Properties http://www.ocwen.com/reo/home.cfm or even HMBI is dedicated to providing highly trained professionals to market and manage numerous single-family homes across the country for the Department of Housing and Urban Development http://www.hmbireo.com/. If you are considering the purchase of a HUD home, that is listed, on their site, I would be happy to answer questions for you, and represent you through the purchase process. And there is a definite process that requires strict adherence to HUD rules when purchasing a HUD home, I know I've experienced it a few times already.
The point here is that there are many individuals that are definitely saddened by the foreclosure and loss of their home and that is definitely a sign of the times and a sad state of affairs.
There is also a chance here for "Opportunity to Be Knocking" it's a very Opportunistic Buyer's market. So if you are thinking about moving or buying a home for the first time, or as an investment, the opportunity is there!
I suggest you hire an agent like myself to research and find that home. Visit my website at http://www.columbusareahomesforsale.com for more information regarding Buying or Selling. Get yourself Prequalified, have sufficient funds available, and as they say the "World Is Your Oyster!" and you too, can have the American Dream.
