Henderson Real Estate AZ, Buyers Buy Distressed Properties and Eliminate The Middle Man

Henderson Real Estate AZ, Buyers Buy Distressed Properties and Eliminate The Middle Man

In case you have missed it, we are in the midst of a housing crisis. Incongruous as it may seem, there are many folks who want to buy a house and there are lots of houses for sale. In normal times, this would mean lots of sales with the inevitable result that buyers, sellers and the real estate community would be happy. However, this not the case.

The problem is the quality of the inventory available for sale. Most properties listed today are foreclosures, used, abused and in need of lots of Tender Loving Care. Some have been rehabed by investors and put on the market at a premium. Buyers grab up these cream puff properties, like sharks at a feeding frenzy. Every property gets four, five or more offers. One lucky bidder gets the property. The other frustrated buyers begin their search again looking and waiting for the next cream puff. There are not enough of these cream puff homes to go around. Buyers are frustrated and investors keep buying distressed properties, doing repairs, carpet and paint and selling the rehabed properties, at a premium, to buyers looking for the elusive cream puff.

Here at Henderson Real Estate AZ, we did a quick check of the ARMLS listings and noted that there are 6,018 lender owned (foreclosed) properties on the market today. Many of these foreclosed properties are in disrepair and will require time and money to rehabilitate and make them marketable. Obviously, there are not enough investors to handle this huge inventory so these properties will languish, blighting neighborhoods well into the future. All the while, frustrated buyers keep looking for the elusive cream puffs, like dogs chasing their tails. As gruesome as this situation appears, there is a relatively easy fix.

There is a solution, a very little discussed solution, The United States Government has a product called a 203K loan. The 203K loan program is not new. It has been round for a long time. The good news is, despite being around for a while, the 203K Loan Program was made for our times and our current situation. In a nut shell, buyers can buy one of these distressed, foreclosed, properties, at discount prices, and bundle the cost of repairs into their 203K loan. Buyers can buy the distressed property at a discount from the lender and make the repairs. They can pick their own colors, just like in a new build home purchase and make their own cream puff. In effect, buyers can cut out the middle man, the investor. In Maricopa County, buyers can buy a property valued at up to $346,250. (including repairs.) No more looking for cream puffs. No more middle man. Buyers can create their own cream puffs.

Buyers win. The neighborhood wins. The housing crisis is closer to turning around. Win! Win! Win!

Scottsdale, Arizona Real Estate Investing

Scottsdale, Arizona Real Estate Investing

There are several factors to consider when thinking about investing in Arizona Real Estate. Is this a short term or a long term investment? Is this going to be a rental property or a personal residence? Is this going to be a vacation home? Before jumping into an investment property, it may be a good idea to ask your self what type of investment is going to fit your needs.

The days of flipping houses have seem to come to a screeching halt in Arizona. A little over a year ago this was extremely common because there were too many buyers, and not enough sellers. The inventory was very slim. Now, the inventory has seemed to increase, not enough buyers and too many sellers. Obviously, when this happens prices drop.

There is no way to predict future market conditions, but now may be a good time to start purchasing property in Arizona. The sellers are giving extraordinary incentives and the interest rates are relatively low. To make an informed decision, some might think to take a look at what is happening around them.

The price of homes have been dropping, that is not a secret. When the prices of homes start dropping, this may be an indication of a market fluctuation. When the market fluctuates it is a good time to be in the right place at the right time. Many lenders have gone out of business because there is such a high foreclosure rate. It is becoming harder and harder for people with marginal credit ratings to obtain a loan. This may be an indication that the rental market is about to get stronger.

When lenders start going out of business, and the remaining lenders tighten up their criteria, not as many people can qualify to purchase a home. People have to live somewhere, so their only other option is to rent.

When investing in Arizona Real Estate, it is important to analyze the rental market of the area you may be thinking about purchasing. It is also very important to know what your payments are going to be and how much you need to put down in order to have even or positive cash flow. If you are going to purchase a home to rent out, make sure that your payments are close to what the rental rates are in the area. To find out what the rental rates are you can ask a qualified Realtor to tell you what is currently on the market for rent in the area, and what has recently rented out. Basically, you are doing a comparative market analysis on the rental market in the area you are thinking about buying. Most qualified Real Estate professionals can help you with this.

It is extremely important to find a Realtor to represent your best interests when investing in Arizona. The difference between a good Realtor and a bad Realtor could cost you thousands of dollars. Make sure your Real Estate professional is experienced, educated, and knowledgeable of the area you are thinking about buying in. Above all, make sure your agent is aggressive.

In order to get the best price possible with the current market conditions, it is imperative to start extremely low regarding an offer to purchase. Rarely is the sticker price the purchase price. A good Realtor that is representing an investor may see a home for three hundred thousand dollars, offer two hundred and fifty thousand, and have the seller pay for all of the investors closing costs. Will the seller except this contract? There is no way to know for sure. All the seller wants to know is how much money they are walking away with in most cases. If the seller will have to pay to close escrow the contract will probably not fly. It is always a great idea to find out how much the seller owes before writing an offer on any home by having your Realtor look at the tax records. This way, you know how much flexibility you have. A desperate seller with an enormous amount of equity may have some opportunity.

Make sure when you are investing in Real Estate in Arizona, you have proper representation, you do your homework with your agent, and know that there is risk involved. Like any investment, there is risk involved. There is no way to determine future market conditions. Real Estate markets are cyclical. What goes up may very well come down. It is better to have an honest Realtor that tells you the truth versus a Realtor fluffing the truth that may cost you a lot of money. If you need a good, honest, hard working aggressive Realtor to help you with any and all of your Arizona Real Estate needs, please click on the link below to visit an extremely helpful website to get you in contact with a professional Realtor in Arizona.
