Sell Your House in 7
Days or Less
Do you own an unwanted house
and need to sell quickly?
Is Your House in
Foreclosure?
If you are facing a
pending foreclosure, the best advice we can give you is to
Act Now and Don't Hesitate another Minute!
Many
people facing foreclosure do nothing but sit around and
wait for a miracle. We all know the odds of that happening
are unlikely at best. But what else can you do?
Many homeowners seek advice from their attorney. And why
not, attorneys are supposed to have all the answers,
right? Maybe so, maybe not!
They act on their
attorney's well intentioned advice and file bankruptcy,
thinking that all their problems will be solved. However,
even though bankruptcy does put a hold on everything, all
it really does is buy a little more time. The end result
is almost always the same... the property goes to
Sheriff's Sale and in addition to losing their home, they
now have a bankruptcy and a foreclosure on their credit
report. If you are facing foreclosure, this is a situation
you definitely want to avoid at all costs.
In most
cases, the best thing for a homeowner to do when facing
foreclosure, assuming that the homeowner's inability to
pay the mortgage is not temporary, is to Sell the Property
and Sell It Fast!
In doing so, you will avoid
having a foreclosure and quite possibly a bankruptcy on
your credit report. You'll be able to get on with your
life and avoid having foreclosure haunt you for years to
come!
Is Your House Vacant?
There are many reasons why a house will often sit vacant.
It may or may not be by choice, but it is almost always a
problem for the owner. Unoccupied houses have a tendency
to draw unnecessary attention to themselves. Many times
it's the unwanted attention from neighborhood kids or
others who see it as an opportunity to break out windows
or vandalize the house. During the winter months, you pay
for the utilities that are to be left on to keep the house
in good condition: otherwise, you shut them off and hope
no damage will occur. Furthermore, unless you change your
homeowner's policy, you may no longer be covered by
insurance if your home is damaged after being unoccupied
over 30 days.
Does Your Property Need
Repairs?
If you need to sell your house
and it is in need of major repairs, chances are many
people won't consider buying it. Most people can't or
won't get a loan on a house that needs fixing up before
they are able to move in. Most lending institutions won't
loan money on properties that are in need of major repair
since they make poor collateral.
Has your
listing expired?
Have you listed your
property with a Real Estate Agent and they just haven't
been able to sell the house? Perhaps they didn't show the
house enough, didn't market your house effectively or
simply listed your house at too high a price. Maybe the
agent actually brought a few buyers to you, but things
just didn't work out... the offer was too low, the
contract fell through or the buyer just couldn't perform.
Meanwhile, you were stuck with the house and the payments
while you waited, waited and waited. Finally, out of
frustration, you let the listing expire...
Behind On Your Mortgage Payments?
Many unexpected things can happen, such as job loss or
health problems and the like that cause you to miss making
your monthly house payments. Sometimes you find yourself
struggling to make your house payment while all your other
bills continue to pile up. Often, it becomes very
difficult to catch up those payments when you find
yourself two or three payments behind and the fourth is
due next week. Finally a point comes when there is no
catching up.
Being Transferred or
Relocated?
A job transfer or relocation
is usually a good thing and means that congratulations are
in order. However, relocation can also be very stressful
if you have a great new job, but have to worry about
selling your house before you move. Often there isn't
enough time to get your house sold before you move and you
end up getting stuck making double payments on a house you
no longer live in. The last thing you need to be worried
about when taking a new position is selling your house.
We can buy your home quickly, and allow you to get on
with your life and new opportunities. We can take over
your payments and maintenance of the property and allow
you the freedom to move quickly if necessary. We will
continue to handle the payments and maintenance until the
house is sold and your mortgage is paid off in full.
Bad Tenants? Tired Being a Landlord?
Landlording is not easy! Whether you are a
seasoned professional or you've become a landlord
"accidentally" by not being able to find a buyer in time
for your move, you will agree that landlording is no fun.
Dealing with tenants calling day or night, potential
lawsuits, vacant properties with no income, vandalism,
shelling out money for maintenance, irresponsible tenants
damaging your investment, etc., all can give you an ulcer
before you know it.
Fortunately, you don't have to
continue like this. We can take the problem property off
your hands. Whether your property is vacant or not,
whether your property needs repairs or not, we are here to
help.
Owe Liens?
Don't
be discouraged from selling your house because you have
liens, judgments or title problems. We are experts at
dealing with these situations.
Divorce?
No one plans to divorce, at least not at
first, but many times situations change in such a way that
two people may find that their lives and the house they
own together have become a problem for them. Divorce is
unpleasant enough without the burden of selling a house,
especially when it prevents you from going your separate
ways. We deal with divorce situations on a regular basis
and we can help you quickly sell your house so you can get
on with your life.
Do You Need to Settle
an Estate?
Maybe you've inherited a property
or have the responsibility to get rid of it on behalf of
the estate. The death of a loved one is tragic enough, but
the added burden of dealing with the estate can become
almost unbearable.
Perhaps the property needs
repairs before it can be sold. Perhaps you have mortgage
payments and no one has the money to keep them paid.
Whatever the case may be, the probate and selling process
can often be confusing, costly and aggravating.
You work through the endless stacks of paper trying to
determine how to split the assets between the heirs and
how to legally handle everything. Much of the estate may
be easy to dispose of or distribute, but rarely is that
the case with real estate holdings. Many times selling the
real estate can take months...
House 100
Percent Financed? No Equity?
The "low equity,
no equity" situation is the most common problem we come
across. In most cases, the homeowner has tried to sell
their house "for sale by owner" (FSBO) with no luck. When
they discover they are unable to sell their home, their
next step is usually to list it through a Real Estate
Agent. In order to cover the Real Estate Agent’s
commissions and closing costs, they usually have to
dramatically increase the asking price. Since the price
was artificially increased, the likelihood of selling the
house is reduced even further.
Even if the house
does sell, any equity that does exist is quickly eaten
away by the Real Estate Agent’s commission, closing costs,
taxes and holding costs, leaving the seller responsible
for bringing a large check to the closing table.
You don't have to pay real estate commissions and you
don't have to give away your equity, no matter how small
it is, to a Real Estate Agent.
Are You
Making Two House Payments?
Many of our
clients were making double payments, one on their new home
and one on their previous home. Many situations can cause
you to get stuck with double payments. The most common
problem is when you have bought a new home or you are
having a new home built and your first home has not sold
yet, or the closing on the first home has fallen through.
We've actually helped clients whose closings have fallen
through over three times!
The second most common
reason for double payments is a job transfer or
relocation. Sometimes you are forced to move to a new home
or apartment, before you are able to sell your house.
