Pre-Foreclosure Services

Bank Owned ForeclosuresHave you been dreaming of owning real estate whether it is a vacation home, weekend retreat or an investment for your future? Are you worried you will be paying too much? Please take a moment to consider this exciting way to own real estate. Bank Owned and REO properties are very popular in today's market. Pre-foreclosure sales offer buyers and investors the opportunity to purchase property at the lowest price possible. Pre-foreclosure properties are sold "As Is, Where Is". Purchasing pre-foreclosure properties require extensive research by a qualified professional and motivated buyers/investors to execute a transaction.

Buyers/Investors will be purchasing the property through auction and the buyer/investor will need to act quickly to access the necessary funds in order to purchase. Through this method of purchasing property, the buyer/investor has the opportunity to purchase at extremely low prices! Depending on the buyers/investors purpose for purchasing property, the low price of purchasing a pre-foreclosure property allows many options: a 2nd home/vacation home, a rental property, or to resale for a profit. Even in today's "tough" market conditions, the purchase price on the pre-foreclosure properties allow buyers/investors room to make a profit.

An Example of an Actual Property Located in Surf City:

#1.a townhouse the original owners purchased in 2006 for $575,000; sold as a pre-foreclosure in 11/2009 for $220,100. A townhouse just like that one, in the same development sold 3/2009 for $389,000. That is a savings of $168,900 that SeaShore Realty Group, Inc. was able to save their client.

SeaShore Realty Group Inc. has developed a 5 step process to purchasing real estate in the pre-foreclosure process:

  1. Finding and researching the property,
  2. Working with local banks that will set the date, time, and bid(purchase) amount,
  3. Determining what the buyer/investor will bid based on research.
  4. Following up on the 10 day "upset" period,
  5. Arranging for buyer/investor to close the property within 14-20 days after upset period.

The two key aspects of purchasing property in this manner are research and the ability of the buyer/investor accessing their necessary funds in this timeframe.
