Lenders Primed for Short Sales in 2011

Short sales are a terrific option for homeowners struggling with unaffordable mortgage payments. In fact, lenders’ losses due to foreclosure are projected to increase at record rates in 2011, giving them more reason to pursue short sales. Lenders are projected to incur losses as severe as 85 percent in foreclosure! Meaning, after deducting the expense of the foreclosure process on a $100,000 loan, they may only get back $15,000!

It’s common sense that lenders will be looking toward the short sale solution. Even though they are accepting less than is owed on the property, they lose far less than in a foreclosure sale.

In fact, in the South Florida market area, short sale transactions account for 50-75% of all sales!

It may be a surprise to many that lenders actually want to work out a solution that benefits all parties. Oftentimes, the lender is seen as the villain in the situation. I’ve found that the lenders want to avoid foreclosure just as much as homeowners. I have a free report I can email you which talks more about working with your lender, and details all the foreclosure alternatives available to you.

Email me for the report or call me today; I can help you develop a plan to work with your lender and avoid foreclosure.

In the news - The Hokey Pokey!

Seems there are always ramblings in the news about the state of the real estate market – is it up, is it down,  do the Hokey Pokey and shake it all around!

REAL ESTATE IS LOCAL. There are no two neighborhoods exactly alike, so how can there be two “markets” exactly alike? Even if we build 2 homes exactly alike, and we place one on a beautiful lake, and the other next to a landfill, it is easy to see that one on the lake would be more desirable and have more value than the other.

At any given time, there will be some neighborhoods more desirable than others – thus more in demand. Higher demand means higher price. People have to have a place to live and they will live in the best place they can afford.

As prices came down in the market, everyone began to realize they might be able to finally afford a better place – so they “moved up” and the demand increased for the better neighborhoods. So, it follows that the better neighborhoods began to recover sooner due to increased demand, and the worst neighborhoods suffered as people moved away.

So, Florida can be in higher demand than say Minnesota. South Florida can have more demand than Tallahassee. Maybe some people prefer coastal Palm Beach to rural southwest Miami-Dade County.  There will always be a preferred neighborhood and price will reflect that demand.

Prices in most South Florida neighborhoods are stabilizing, and the better neighborhoods are starting to increase in value.  It is expected that interest rates will creep up this year to the high fives or more. Loans will become harder to get as banks become more conservative to meet government regulations.

If you are going to buy, now is the time!

Feel free to post any questions you have and I will try to get them answered in the next post.

Peace,

Chuck
