Foreclosures in your area

I agree, the consumer is at fault for falling prey to the scams that were out there to refinance their home to continue feeding their need for immediate gratification. Veronica

Whoa - I thought we were in the middle of a housing recovery?
I just hope that anyone who walked away from their home and defaulted on their mortgage stays a renter for the rest of their life because no bank in their right mind should lend them money ever again.

I think it`s great that their are some home bargains out there, but let`s also remember that for whatever reason, someone lost their HOME in the process. I think a little compassion is in order. The banks and the consumer are both to blame.

As far as California goes, Santa Barbara is the only nice place on the list. The others always have been high-crime, low life quality locations. The only people that would buy there would be immigrants. Chinese immigrants and others are buying these homes up, homing it will be better than their native country. They get "investment visas" and they`re in. This is what is being called a housing recovery.

Forget about investing in Florida. No jobs, high insurance rates. Sure there are no state taxes, but property taxes have jumped, plus residents have to pay all those pensions of civil servants. Dade, Broward and Palm Beach County is all trashed now. Orlando is also a whacked area of nut jobs. Very transit with people coming and going. Corruption in local politics is rampant through out Florida. If you think the weather is great, stay there from May until end of October. Cannot live without A/C during that time. So skip Florida.

Just remember that in a foreclosure there is limited disclosure. The bank can say they didnt know there was anything wrong and you cant prove otherwise.

Thats a different issue. Just because a house is sold "as is" that does not relieve the seller of the requirement to disclose ALL problems he has knowledge of. Thats the law in most if not all states. You have the right to know what you are buying before you buy it. But in a foreclosure that law is greatly weakened.

That is why you get a home inspector to do his/her thing before you buy it

Assuming it`s not a run-down drug shack;
You are competing with BIG flipping companies, ready, willing and able to buy for cash, here and now.
In my area, over 70% of homes sold to them.

i looked at some of the foreclosures in my area. most of them should have been taken down anyway. cement in the basements was more like dust powder. severely overgrown trees. most of them were pretty bad. not something that should be flipped. more like something that should be removed and start over. or just plant an orchard there or something.

Investors have contractors lined up to flip these houses. Unless a homebuyer is handy around the house and is willing to make necessary improvements to the house right away and over time while living in it, then foreclosed homes are not worth the effort.
