Whom ever people are making their mortgage payments to are the ones taking the hardest hit when a home goes into foreclosure. When a home is in foreclosure, it means that the home owner has stopped making their house payments. When this happens, the bank is forced to foreclose on the home and re-claim the home. Once they re-claim the home they want to get rid of the home. To get rid of the home, the bank must sell the home at fair market value for the home to have any chance at selling. If the fair market value is less than the amount owed on the home, the bank is going to take a loss because they loaned the home owner more money than the home is currently worth. If the home had any equity at all, the home owner probably would not have had to foreclose because they could have refinanced the home to take money out to pay the mortgage payments.

Lists are distributed to Realtors that are in pre-foreclosure, which means, the people are on these lists are late making their house payment, and have a possibility of going into foreclosure. This is a touchy subject to the people that are making their house payment late. There are multiple reasons why someone would stop making their house payments. Usually, the people that stop making their payments on their home are not doing it by choice, but out of necessity. However, you may be helping someone by an investor or home buyer purchasing a home in pre-foreclosure. If you can not afford the home any more, perhaps someone will purchase the home for you so you do not have to make the payments anymore.

If the home owner that went into foreclosure owes three hundred thousand dollars on a home, and other similar homes in the area are now selling for two hundred and thirty thousand, the bank is going to take a loss. This is a good time to get a home at fair market value, or possibly less. When the bank forecloses on a home, they own the home at this point. The bank acts as the seller, and the buyer and the buyers Realtor are now negotiating on a price with the bank. If no better offers are coming through the door, the bank may take your low offer.

When a property is in pre-foreclosure may be a beneficial time for someone to purchase a home. That is, if the property that is in pre-foreclosure has some equity. If the homes in the area are selling for three hundred thousand dollars, and the person that is in pre-foreclosure owes two hundred and thirty thousand dollars on the home, a good purchase price would be two hundred and thirty thousand dollars, or maybe two hundred and forty thousand. If a similar floor plan just sold in the area for three hundred thousand dollars, then this would be a wonderful buy because you just picked up some equity. Sometimes a Realtor will represent the bank and act on the banks behalf and negotiate a list price for the home. The bank is asking for a Realtor to sell this home at fair market value. This way, the bank can continue banking, the Realtor can try to get the property sold, and the homeowner can possibly get out of their mortgage once the house sells. This is a winning situation for the buyer, the bank, the homeowner, and the Realtors.

However, it is common when the seller owes more than the home is worth, then, the bank will ask the Realtor to price it to sell. When a bank tells a Realtor this in this hypothetical situation, the Realtor will have to price it lower than the surrounding competition in order for the home to sell. This is called a short sale.

A short sale is good for the buyer, better than nothing for the bank, and an act of desperation by the seller. It is good for the seller because they will get out of paying their mortgage payment if the house sells, but generally has a negative effect on the sellers credit rating. A bank will not negotiate with the seller on a short sale unless the seller is not making their house payments. This will have a detrimental effect on the sellers credit rating.

This does not guarantee that market conditions could get worse. Home values may drop any time, so this is a risk a home buyer or investor needs to contemplate. If the interest rates are dropping, and the market seems to be heading upwards, this might be a great investment. There is no way to predict market conditions, what goes up may very well come down. None of the information in this article will guarantee any type of return on your investment. When buying, selling, or leasing property in Arizona, it is imperative that you are properly represented so that you know what you are getting your self into.
