Do You Want to Know How to Get Good Foreclosure Deals?

Posted by Carlos Martinez on August 25th, 2014

Foreclosures are a hot market for investors and buyers. To get the best deal possible, follow these tips:

1. Timing is everything. Borrowers often are given a chance to avoid foreclosure with a grace period, typically two to three months, to pay off the amount they owe. The borrower may opt to sell the property during this preforeclosure stage if they can’t make up their missed mortgage payments. This is typically the best time to strike a deal, as home owners are looking for ways to avoid foreclosure. Another prime time to buy: prior to an auction date.

2. Look in the right places. Follow the foreclosure trail. NMWelcomeHome Real Estate Team, Title companies, banks, purchase money, escrow offices, and credit unions can be good sources to find out…

Posted by Carlos Martinez on November 4th, 2013

What is the FHA Back to Work - Extenuating Circumstances Program?

Posted by Carlos Martinez on November 3rd, 2013

There are many things that can affect home value so I made a list of the top items that could have an impact on your home value.  Some of these you can correct and some you cannot.

• Location - Location can affect value especially if zoning changed in the area and now something undesirable is built.
• Lack Up of Updates - You can fix this with a minimal investment. I have see great improvements with paint and replacing all light fixtures. You can obviously go as far as you want but be careful and don't go to far!
• Short Sales and Foreclosure in your area - As the inventory for these sales types continues to go down it will have less of an impact on your home as time goes by. The reason is that appraisers will look at the last 3 months of sold…
