How to Buy Myrtle Beach Foreclosures – Myrtle Beach Bank Owned Condos and Houses

How to Buy Myrtle Beach Foreclosures – Myrtle Beach Bank Owned Condos and Houses

    Many Home buyers that are looking for a good deal and many of them are thinking about pursuing a foreclosed home.  The current market conditions make it a perfect time to buy Myrtle Beach foreclosures, condos and homes. Many Myrtle Beach properties are selling for 30%, 50% and even 75% off what they originally where paid for. Even though the word foreclosure is being used a lot lately many don’t understand what it means.

In pain and simple, the homeowner stopped making payment for to the lender. This could be because the homeowner lost his job, a medical condition, debt, divorce, job transfer to another state, death in the family, or many other reasons. The lender or the bank has taken back ownership. Of course, the banks do not want to own these properties and they want to get them off their books as soon as possible.

Many lender and banks assign foreclosure properties to experienced agents in that area. Foreclosure proceedings vary from state to state. Its best to get familiar with the laws in the state you are interested in purchasing.  Also, talking with an experienced agent that deals with foreclosures can help you understand the process of buying a foreclosure property and save you time and money.

    There’s other issues you have to think about to make sure a foreclosure is right for you. First any property that is foreclosure must be purchased in “As Is” condition. This does not mean that you are not allowed a Home Inspection. It means that after whichever tests and inspections you decide to order, you must take the house in that condition without requesting any fixes or improvements. If the home inspection report comes back and you realize that you are unwilling or able to fix the repairs it is best to know this before you go under contract to purchase.

Your next step is to place an offer on the property. You have to make sure you have everything in order and you dot all the “I”s and cross the “T”s. The lender wants to make sure you have a pre-approval letter in place or that you have a proof of funds. If you want the upper hand in negotiation you want to have these in hand before you start looking at properties. An expert agent with foreclosures can point you in the right direction with this.

Your offer should be as clean as possible; Myrtle Beach bank owned properties will accept the highest and the best offer. Keep in mind, you are “bidding” against other investors. The most important part is having an agent that has well experience in foreclosures, representing you in your best interest.

Everyone knows a deal when they see one. In the last 3 months seems like everyone has finally woken up and realized, “Wow it is a great time to buy, and there are some fantastic deals”

The beach has been packed every weekend with buyers snatching up the very best foreclosures and short sales. We are moving through the inventory very fast. 

Buy when they are selling and sell when they are buying. Well let me tell you, they are buying…..very quickly.

We just listed a house for sale on a Friday afternoon and by Monday morning we had 10 offers to buy.  We presented all the offers to the seller, and they choose the highest and best offer. It went for over asking price. Why would someone pay over asking price for a house in this market? Because at these prices, properties are way under value.

The media is slow to react. You will hear about this 6 month from now after the fact. We have our finger on the pulse of what is going on.  We are the experts in the Myrtle Beach Market for Foreclosures and Short Sales.  We are the top ranked Realtors in Myrtle Beach because of knowledge of the market and skill level. When you are ready, and coming to the beach, we go to work for you, in your best interest and show you the good the bad and the ugly.

This market is not what it was a few months ago. Some parts of the country are very slow. But in Myrtle Beach this market is flying.  The lure of the beach and ocean has not gone away!

Why is the market in Myrtle Beach flying? 

When you can buy a 5 bedroom condo that was originally $950,000 in the height of the market, and you can now purchase it for $197,000.  If you can’t see this is a deal, then you probably don’t need to be looking at real estate.

Here are some examples of how Myrtle Beach oceanfront properties are increasing in value right now. (YES, I KNOW YOU CAN’T BELIEVE IT, BUT I DID SAY INCREASING IN VALUE!)

-       Caribbean unit sold a few months ago for $93,000. Now the last sale was for $121,000. They are now listed for $129,000. To $149,900.

 

-       Paradise Resort we sold a unit for $109,000 a few months ago now they are selling for $125,000 to $130,000.  That is almost a 20% increase in a few months. Not bad at all.

 

-       Margate Tower, 3 bedroom sold for $400,000. A few months ago. Now the same exact unit a few floors up sold for $535,000.

 

-       Dunes Village we sold a few months ago for $200,000. Now they are $229,000

 

-       Caribbean 3 bedroom condo sold for $250,000 now they are $275,000.

 

-       Myrtle Beach Villas – 4 bedroom condo across the street, as few years back they were $450,000.  We sold one for $118,000  WOW!!!  Now they are $140,000   à NOTICE àa 4 bedroom condo across the street from the beach, in a building just 3 years old, with lazy river, pools, etc. NOW SELLING FOR $140,000 DO YOU SEE THE VALUE?  That is why the market is moving fast!

Some of the very best deals are not on the internet. We have bank owned properties that we can show you in person when you are here, but we don’t have anything to email you on these types of listings.

Just let us know when you are ready.  We will pull the keys, set up the property viewing appointments, and put it together for you.

There is no time to waste for anyone who wants to take advantage of this great buying opportunity. If you can see that there are great deals right now, then you need to take advantage of the situation right now…

You will thank yourself down the road for buying now!

With interest rates at record lows and the  stock market being what it is, many people are putting money in an asset they can understand, in real estate. One of the best places to buy right now is with foreclosed properties. During economic downturns, more upscale properties are going into foreclosure. Beachfront properties in the Myrtle Beach area are part of the mix of foreclosed properties available. You can find foreclosed properties as cheap as 30% to 70% below origanl prices.

            It is a must, to learn how to navigate the foreclosure process. For most consumers the foreclosure process can prove daunting. Good properties are available but they require research, preparation, patience and persistence.  The foreclosure process starts when a property owner falls behind on mortgage payments. Many owners of homes that go into foreclosure have been struggling financially for almost a year before they give up, which usually means that the house has not received needed repairs or general maintenance for a while. This may include everything from missing light bulbs to roof leaks. Houses in poor condition might fetch bargain prices, but repairs can boost the cost again. The first rule of real estate, “location, location, location,” applies in these situations. If there is a properties that needs a few repairs but is in a good area with high property resale values, expect the entire property and consider making a low offer.  

            Not all foreclosures are previously owned homes. Some foreclosed homes are new. These homes are not as easy to identify and rarely appear on national lists. In some areas, the slow economy has left many builders of new midscale and upscale homes at the end of their construction-loan periods without finding buyers for their homes. In these cases, the banks that issued the construction loans take possession of the homes and attempt to sell them, using real-estate agents to handle the deals.

Wondering Why Your Myrtle Beach Home Hasn’t Sold? – Jerry Explains A Few Reasons – Sell Myrtle Beach Real Estate

There are many reasons why a house or a condo doesn’t sell the first time around, but price is usually the number one reason. Most sellers do not understand the current Myrtle Beach real estate market well enough to price their condo or home on their own. And while an experienced agent can give pricing advice to a seller, it is ultimately up to the seller to price their listing correctly.

Last year Less than 23% of the listed properties Sold!

In today’s changing Myrtle Beach Real Estate Market, you need every advantage to selling your home for top dollar. That means your Realtor, their track record and experience is more important than ever.

Several other factors many come into play with a sale, or no sale situation. The listing agents skill level and also the marketing efforts, may weigh heavily on the odds of how many people your property is exposed to. The days of taking a listing, putting it into the MLS system, and then having someone come along and put an offer in, are long gone.  Even if a condo or house is priced right, then you have to get it in front of as many people as possible, to bring an offer. It’s all about taking a military approach, and using a proven plan of action.

One military plan of action is called swarming. This tactic is put into action by putting as much man power and exposure to the target, and then overwhelming the objective. Swarming is putting everything toward the target to achieve the goal, that way the objective is achieved. This is one way we receive Results.

Did you know that pricing your home at a value such as $209,000.is often counterproductive as it does not maximize how many times your home will appear in search results on the internet. Call us and we can give you the details. 843-222-1926

Myrtle Beach Foreclosures and Myrtle Beach Bank Owned Properties

Myrtle Beach Foreclosures and  Myrtle Beach Bank Owned Properties

Foreclosure numbers in South Carolina still rank much lower than many areas of the country. The highest percentages were posted in Las Vegas-Paradise, Nev., at 12.04%, and Cape Coral-Fort Myers, Fla., at 11.87%. The MSA with the lowest percentage rate of foreclosure filings in the U.S. for 2009 was Burlington, Vt., at 0.05%.

Foreclosures have been a lagging indicator with the bursting of the housing bubble in a recession wracked by mortgage-backed securities. Myrtle Beach-Conway  has a low 1.61% percentage rate of foreclosure filings in the U.S. for 2009 compared to the rest of the nation. One reason these numbers may be lower is many people with mortgages that are higher than the value of their property have opted to do a Myrtle Beach Short Sale.

Housing numbers in all areas of South Carolina — as in many areas of the nation — picked up with the extension and expansion of the federal homebuyer tax credits.

Myrtle Beach Foreclosures – Myrtle Beach Bank Owned

Myrtle Beach Foreclosures – Myrtle Beach Bank Owned

       Hopefully everybody knows about the generous government tax credits in place for virtually all Americans to buy a home. The home buyer tax credit of $8,000 and current homeowner’s credit of $6,500 has been extended to April 30^th 2010. Foreclosures also remain high meaning that there’s significant pressure on prices. The market remains a buyer’s market in most areas. If you add the tax credit and so many Myrtle Beach foreclosures available equals a great time to buy a home. For anyone who feels their job is secure and can afford it, it’s a good time to buy a home, upgrade to a bigger place, or investment. If you are in the market for a home as a long-term investment it’s pretty hard to make an argument against buying now.  Even if we aren’t at the precise bottom, it’s hard to believe that home prices could plummet much further in most areas. And even if they did continue to decline a little, the tax credit might make up for most or all of that decline anyway. For anyone that is looking for Myrtle Beach Foreclosures or Myrtle Beach short sale property and its ready to buy you are at the right time to do it.

Tips for a First Time Home Buyer

Tips for a First Time Home Buyer

            About 80% of all home searches today begin on the Internet. Now days with just a few click of the mouse, home buyers can search trough hundreds of online listings, view virtual tours, look trough photographs and find out information about the neighborhoods and homes nearby. First, you have to do some research and find out what type of home and neighborhood you want to live in. That way by the time you reach your real estate agent’s office you are already halfway to home ownership. Just like you have to search for what type of home you want you also have to search on what type of real estate agent you want to work with. Look for an agent that is experienced, has morals, has a good reputation and that it’s willing to work for you.  Good real estate agents will listen to your wants and needs and arrange to show only those homes that fit your particular parameters.

Although it’s physically possible to do so, don’t expect to set up property viewing appointements for  20 or more houses. If you try to do that you probably will not remember specific details about any of them. Your best choise it to probably see about 7 to 10 houses that way your brain won’t go in to overload and you can make the right choose for you and your family. Some things that you can bring are a digital camera and a notebook to write notes. You can begin each series of photos with a close-up of the house number to identify where each group of home photos start and end.  Take notes of unusual features the house has, of the homes surroundings and the location. Immediately after leaving the home rate each home on a scale of 1 to 10 and write what you like and didn’t like about the home. After touring homes for a few days, you will probably instinctively know which one or two homes you would like to buy. Ask to see them again. You will see them with different eyes and notice elements that were overlooked the first go-around. At this point, your agent should call the listing agents to find out more about the sellers’ motivation and to double-check that an offer hasn’t come in, making sure these homes are still available to purchase. Everything should go smoothly and you will have the pleasure of Buying Myrtle Beach Homes.

The Jerry Pinkas Real Estate Team’s goal is to create the most productive and influential real estate team in the world by focusing on teamwork, leadership, and personal growth to achieve our goals. We will provide world class service; on return will create raving clients.  We are experienced dedicated agents that want to work for you and work hard for our clients. We truly want to be a part of this honor of helping you and your family, become a First Time Home Buyer.

Myrtle Beach Short Sale – Myrtle Beach Short Sales

 Myrtle Beach Short Sale – Myrtle Beach Short Sales

Foreclosure in the United States hit an all time high in the year 2009. There were 3,957,643 foreclosures filed in 2009, a 31% increase over the previous years. Foreclosure filings were reported on 349,519 U.S. properties in December, a 14% jump from the previous month and a 15% increase from December 2008. The December number is particularly depressing because it shows that the foreclosure problem is not even close to going away. The federal government efforts to modify mortgages did not stop foreclosures because of the rising unemployment and underwater mortgages. Many people home loans worth more than the homes themselves. Many experts believe that 2010 may be the year in which the number of foreclosures drops compared to 2009 but it may not drop by much. Do you see yourself getting in to this situation of foreclosure?

There are many ways to lose a home but signing away ownership in a manner that destroys credit, embarrasses the family and strips an owner of dignity is one of the hardest. For home owners who can no longer afford to keep mortgage payments current, there are alternatives to bankruptcy or foreclosure proceedings. One of those options is called a short sale. A short sale occurs when a property is sold and the lender agrees to accept a discounted payoff, meaning less money than is actually owed. In other words, the difference between what you sell the house for and what you owe on the house is forgiven. You’ll also avoid a foreclosure on your record. How do you start the short sale process?

The first step is the most important to people who want to sell their home in a short sale. Find a highly experienced real estate agent who has done a short sale before many times. You cannot do this process by yourself or with someone that is not experienced. An experienced short sale real estate agent will give you a much better chance of successfully short sell your home. The real estate agent will be able to deal and negotiate with the lender on your behalf. The longer you wait to get started in the process the less chance you will have of success. You need to start doing research on agents to start the short sale process if you’re getting behind on your payments or have already received a notice. Even though sometimes short sale may take a couple of months be ready to leave your home quickly if needed. Why is short sale a better process than foreclosure?

The best part of selling your home as a short sale there is no foreclosure. Foreclosure can be a very hard, emotional and stressful process for you and your family. It can take anywhere from six to twelve months for a foreclosure to complete. Also, it will be on your credit for seven years or more. If you short sale your home it will give you some control over the process by finding a buyer of your chose and negotiating terms with the bank.

By choosing to do short sale you are minimizing damage to your credit score. This means you and your family will get back on your feet faster. You’ll be eligible to purchase another house faster than if you entered foreclosure. A big plus is that you will not owe anything after the short sale to the lender. It’s all about helping people that are upside down on their mortgage. We help stop foreclosure through the short sale process. With the clock ticking our skilled team goes to work to bring in buyer fast, and then negotiate with the mortgage company to get you out of the mortgage commitment. It would be a win-win situation for the buyer, the seller and the bank. Everyone wins.

Take Advantage of the Tax Credit

Take Advantage of the Tax Credit

First Time Home Buyer Credit

            The home buyer tax credit was created in 2008; the home buyer tax credit has evolved from a $7,500 credit, which had to be repaid by the home buyers over the course of 15 years, to an $8,000 tax credit with no repayment required in 2009. The home buyer tax credit of $8,000 and current homeowners credit of $6,500 has been extended to April 30^th 2010. This is good news and everyone that qualifies for these two credits should take advantage of them before it’s too late. April 30^th 2010 is just around the corner only two months away. To help everyone better understand the extended home buyer tax credit here are some of the main points of the changes. First Time Home Buyers who purchase homes between November 7, 2009 and April 30, 2010 qualify for the credit. However, in cases where a binding sales contract is signed by April 30, 2010, a home purchase completed by June 30, 2010 will qualify.

 To qualify as a First Time Home Buyer the purchaser may not have owned a residence during the prior three years. There is an $800,000 limitation on the cost of the house and of course you have to be at least 18 years old on the date of the purchase. For a married couple, only one spouse must meet this age requirement and dependents are not eligible to claim the credit.  For current homeowners purchasing a home during the same time period they are also eligible for a tax credit. As long as the home being sold or vacated was their principal resident for five straight years within the last eight. The existing home does not need to be sold; however one must occupy the new home as a principal residence and do so for three years or risk recapture of the tax credit. Also, the new home does not need to cost more than the old home despite the concept that it is directed at move up buyers. The maximum allowable credit for first time buyers is $8,000 or 10% of the sales price whichever is less of course and for current homeowners its $6,500 or 10% of the sales price. Under the extended home buyer tax credit, single buyers with incomes up to $125,000 and married couples with incomes up to $225,000 may receive the maximum credit. The credit decreases for single buyers who earn between $125,000 and $145,000 and between $225,000 and $245,000 for home buyers filing jointly. Home buyers earning more than $145,000 for singles and over $245,000 for couples are not eligible for the credit. You need to understand that the buyer does not need to repay the tax credit if he or she occupies the home for three years or more. If the property is sold during the three year period the full amount of the credit will be recouped on the sale. Finally, as an anti-fraud measure, purchasers must attach documentation of purchase to his/her tax return claiming the credit.

Take advantage of the help the government is giving to First Time Home Buyers and Current Homeowners. Let us work for you and do this process for you. The Jerry Pinkas Real Estate Team works for you and we are waiting on your call. Do not hesitate call us at 843-839-9870 today!

How to Find Top Myrtle Beach Real Estate Agents – Myrtle Beach Realtors

How to Find Top Myrtle Beach Real Estate Agents – Myrtle Beach Realtors

            Are you thinking about making an investment by buying real estate? An experienced real estate agent will help finding the perfect property for you to become successful. Finding a good real estate agent / broker is essential to enjoying a painless real estate transaction. The saying is “20% of the agents do 80% of the business,” and it is true. The question is how can you find a good real estate agent? The more knowledge, experience, resources, and ability your real estate agent has the bigger the advantage you are going to have. Most real estate agents stay in business because satisfied clients refer them to friends, family, neighbors and coworkers. Ask the people around you who they have used and ask them to describe their experiences with this real estate agent. Successful agents make customer satisfaction their number one priority and put their customers’ needs before their own. Try to find an agent who goes above and beyond her responsibilities.

 First, you have to look for a real estate agent that specializes on what you are looking for whether is an ocean front condo or a single family home. This means you have to do some research to find the perfect agent for you. You can do some research by simply surfing the web. Google the top real estate companies in your area, go to those Web sites and look up profiles of individual agents at offices near you or near the area you are looking to buy. Agents will have articles or blogs in the web about new opportunity or news that can help you. You can learn about the agent by reading their articles. Also, pay attention to the listing signs in your neighborhood and neighborhoods near you. Make note of the day they go up and when the sold sign appears. Not only that when you see the same agent sign up in different neighborhood a good reason why so many people use them. The next step would be to interview potential real estate agents before deciding on whom to hire. Things you should ask about would be their marketing strategy, what separates them from the rest of the competition, their average list price to sale price radio, references, and if there’s anything you should know that you haven’t asked. Pay close attention to how the real estate agent answers this question because there is always something you need to know, always. You want the agent to take time with you, to make sure you feel comfortable and secure with their knowledge and experience. The agent should know how to listen and how to counsel you, how to ask the right questions to find out what she needs to know to better serve you. You wouldn’t work with any agent, and a good agent is just as selective about their clients. The real estate agent will to interview you too to find out what kind of property you are looking for, price range and to understand your needs.
