Distressed properties - those that are "under water" where more is owed on the property than will be available from the proceeds of a sale of the property - are thankfully far fewer than during the crash during the latter years of the previous decade. Still - some do exist - and Short Sales are still a viable option when faced with a "must sell" scenario of an "under water" property. Currently running at less than 3% of the closed transactions every month in our MLS, homeowners in that 3%, whether in Litchfield Park or another part of the valley, can still use our help. The first step is to contact us so we can schedule a complimentary confidential consultation to discuss how the short sale process works, and the considerations for your particular circumstances.   Careful up front plann...

While there are far fewer people these days considering a Short Sale of their home in Litchfield Park, there are still some who may have purchased just before the "bust" last decade who may owe significantly more on the home than the proceeds of the sale will bring. What to do? A Short Sale is one such solution. A Short Sale is a "regular resale" with one distinct and significant difference. The agreement of your lender(s) to accept less than the balance(s) owed on the loan(s). Whether or not a homeowner meets the other "requirements" of their lender(s) such as a "valid" hardship can only be determined by consultation with a skilled and experienced professional with a solid Short Sale track record - we recommend a minimum of 100 closed Short Sales with a 90%+ Short Sale List to Close ra...

While the numbers of Short Sales and REOs in Litchfield Park are way down from the staggering levels following the market crash about 10 years ago, there are still some properties "under water" and some that have received a Notice of Default, the first step in the process that will result in the Trustee's Sale on the courthouse steps. It's always sad to see people give up and walk away from a home, particularly when alternatives exist which may well be better for them and their lien holders. We've learned that often those who "opt" to let the home go to foreclosure "by default" often believe that their personal circumstances prevent them from doing a Short Sale.   Circumstances such as: Multiple Home Loans IRS Income Tax Liens Past Due Child Support Past Due HOA Fees ...and the list goe...

Although we no longer see the levels of Short Sales that we did a few years ago in Litchfield Park, Notices of Default continue to be issued, meaning that yet another Litchfield Park property is on the path towards foreclosure at auction on the courthouse steps. Suzanne and I wonder why the owners would allow the property to go to foreclosure, rather than investigate alternatives that may be mutually beneficial to themselves and their lenders. Not all properties heading for foreclosure are necessarily "under water" - which theoretically means they could be sold via a "traditional" sale rather than a "short sale" - but circumstances may mean there are other liens attached or other factors that inhibit or prevent the owners from selling the property - whether or not it's a short sale. Sho...

  While the Short Sale days of the previous decade are for the most part behind us, the reality is that there are still hundreds of homes "under water" in Arizona.   While it's true that not every property facing foreclosure in Litchfield Park is "under water", may of them are, and unfortunately many homeowners still don't understand that the likelihood is they will be far better off doing a Short Sale of their Litchfield Park home than allowing their Litchfield Park home to be sold at auction on the courthouse steps!    Short Sales are "regular resales" with one big difference.     Your lender(s) must agree to accept less than the amount(s) owed on your loan(s).   While there are many details regarding Short Sale Seller financial circumstances and the hardship they face, the bottom lin...

  There are still hundreds of homes "under water" in Arizona.   In other words - the homes are worth less than the mortgage balance(s) - so it's not surprising that many homeowners are looking for solutions to stop foreclosure.   One solution to stop foreclosure and mitigate damage to a homeowner's credit is a Short Sale.   Short Sales are "regular resales" with one big difference.   Your lender(s) must agree to accept less than the amount(s) owed on your loan(s).   While there are many details regarding Short Sale Seller financial circumstances and the hardship they face, the bottom line is that most lenders prefer to stop foreclosure in favor of processing a Short Sale where the Seller is able to procure a Fair Market Value contract for their home.   After all, why foreclose on a home...

Litchfield Park Real Estate & Information For the 5,476 or so people that call Litchfield Park home, the tiny burg just 15 miles from Phoenix is their own slice of paradise.  The town has remained small — only 3.3 square miles in total size — so folks running into each other at the Post Office downtown, or neighbors dining at opposite tables in a restaurant is commonplace.  Locally-owned restaurants and retailers line the downtown strip.  The town leaders see some development on the horizon and possibly a new city hall — but only if it maintains the same small town feel with local retailers and offices as part of the plan.

In the real estate industry it is necessary for a Realtor to understand financing.  While we may not know every guideline that must be met in order for a Buyer to obtain a loan, it is important to have an overall knowledge of the loan your client is trying to obtain.  Not knowing can cost your client hundreds of dollars and could cost you future business.  I will give two very basic examples demonstrating how a lack of financing knowledge can cost Buyers and Sellers money!   Example #1 - A Buyer's offer was accepted on a rural custom home in Buckeye, AZ.  The home inspection for approximately $400 was completed and an appraisal at a cost of $490 was completed.  After the appraisal was done it was discovered that the home was on a shared well with 5 homes connected to the well.  The Buye...
