Arizona Short Sales – Opportunity is Knocking…But For How Long?

Publish On 04-03-2009 , 3:12 PM

In the current real estate market, there is no shortage of sellers facing foreclosure. Short sales in Arizona are plentiful and with interest rates at all time record lows, now could be the time to purchase a new home.

Although it’s human nature to want to buy at the best price, consider this as well. Pending home sales are on the increase, and as the arizona distressed property inventory decreases, so will opportunities.

If you are a financially stable buyer with available down payment funds, now is the time to make a solid real estate investment.

Valley Home Foreclosures: March Notices Highest on Record

Publish On 04-02-2009 , 3:44 PM

10,635 struggling homeowners are set to receive a notice of trustee sale in March.  Homeowners that are at least 90 days late on their mortgage payments will be informed that they have 90 days to bring their account current or face having their home sold out from under them.

 

 

According to an article in the Arizona Republic (April 2, 2009) some banks had been waiting to learn more about the new government loan program, “Making Home Affordable”, to determine which homeowners actually qualify.  With that information in hand, banks are moving forward with the pre-foreclosure process.

 

 

Ways to avoid foreclosure include loan modification and short sales in Arizona.  A deed in lieu of foreclosure is another option, with the homeowner surrendering their home to the lender, but banks are less open to this option given the record levels of bank-owned properties.
