Of course, that's exactly w… Continue

TIME FOR CHANGE

Is it Time for Change Did you want to change? Were you ready for change? Are you ready now? Do you like change? Lately, I’ve been hearing a lot about change. It seems that when people run out of excuses for failures, they look for change and embrace it as the way to salvation. Must you destroy the road you came down so that you only have the road ahead? Is change a one-way trip? I can understand how religions might proffer this philosophy, and indeed would thrive on it because their mandate is… Continue

NOW IS THE TIME

This is by far the best time for people to finally become homeowners. No more dealing with landlords, throwing money away in rent, and waiting days for things to get fixed. Home prices are at an all time low and so are interest rates. There are so many great deals out there that it is hard to decide which will be the best investment unlike years past when supply and demand was so low that people had to settle for any house they could get their hands on. Pre-Bank foreclosures and REOs are everyw… Continue

Appraisals In Todays Market - or - How To Blow A Deal Apart For Only $400!

I am pretty sure I'm not writing about something unheard of but still, it helps sometimes to vent... Over the last 3-6 months I've seen a steadily increasing number of escrows blowing apart after an appraisal is completed that provides a value that accurately reflects maket conditions 6 months prior to the date it was completed. In almost every case, my reo client is either unable or unwilling to adjust their price to the appraisal amount and the deal dies. Since I operate in two markets that ar… Continue

Missing BPO Orders? Details on Automated Order-Acceptance

Every day, new agents join the REO industry and sign up with with dozens of BPO vendors who claim they'll make "easy money" doing BPO's. They check vendor websites every day, looking for broadcast orders to accept - but all ever see are missed opportunities. An agent who lives in Los Angeles may assume that it's just a saturated market, but agents in rural America face the same problem: lots of orders, always grabbed by somebody else. WHY… Continue

Will honesty help turn this economy around?

One thing about this year's Kissimmee ICSC that, to me, stood out the most, was an air of "honesty". Last year, there was this sense of false bravado and feigned optimism and downright bulls.... Everyone seemed to be puffing out their chest and flaunting about how well they were doing. I was telling people that I was working my butt off and not making a penny, so I felt a bit left out. This year, the atmosphere wasn't somber, it was actually even more optimistic, but everyone seemed to have a m… Continue

A shadow lurks in the housing market

This is scary. The San Francisco Chronicle reports that lenders are sitting on hundreds of thousands of foreclosed homes that haven’t even been listed yet. If this “shadow inventory” hits the market, we’ll have a new definition of bottomless pit. From the article: “We believe there are in the neighborhood of 600,000 properties nationwide that banks have repossessed but not put on the market,” said Rick Sharga, vice president of RealtyTrac, which compiles nationwide statistics on foreclosures.… Continue

Latest From : The Realty times Are Home Values Rising Or Falling? The Answer Depends On Who You Ask. Posted: 01 Apr 2009 08:59 AM PDT A report published Tuesday showed that home values fell nearly 3 percent in January 2009 versus the month prior and by 19 percent from last year.

Do LONG DISTANCE REO Agents Effectively Service thier properties?

I'd love some opinions here.... I have mine.... imagine that.... Do you think an REO agent can effectively service a client and thier properties when they are 50 - 200 miles away? I'm not talking rural area, I'm talking local suburbia. What about different counties? If you do list that far away, what do you do with the buyer calls? Inquiring minds want to know.
