How do you purchase a short sale home?

First, you need to be pre-approved through a mortgage lender to buy a home and know what price you can afford in a home. Next, you need to find a real estate agent who has knowledge in short sales from a buyers perspective. Knowing how a short sale works from the buyer and sellers end is important when you interview Realtors. Learn by reading short sale blogs on the internet so you understand the long process that goes with it.

A short sale home is similar to purchasing a conventional home except there is additional paperwork, understanding the bank needs to approve it besides the sellers and that you may have months to wait (and are you prepared for the wait). Important to find out if a BPO (brokers price opinion) has been done of the home yet. If not, the price the bank may establish they will settle for may be higher than what your accepted offer was. Be prepared to raise your offer price if you want the home in some instances.

With your pre-approval in hand, your Realtor can tell you what the fair market value is for the home you want. Review the comparable homes sold and offer your best price. Sign the purchase & sales agreement and submit to the sellers. Their agent will submit it to their lender for acceptance. Then you just wait for the process to get to closing.

If your house is repossessed do you keep its contents?

You get to keep all of the contents which do not fall into what is commonly known as "fixtures." Furniture, furnishings and personal property are not fixtures, therefore you may keep them. Anything which is affixed to the house itself stays. Things like chandeliers, ceiling fans and wall-to-wall carpeting are part of the house and should stay; although frequently, many people remove items like that as they leave and nothing is really done by the repossessing party. The difference between fixtures and non-fixtures is not always very clear.

Your parents' property will pass to their heirs at law according to the state laws of intestacy when their estates are properly probated. You can check the laws in your state at the related question link.

The mortgage must be paid or the lender will take possession of the property by foreclosure. If you want to keep the property then you must make arrangements to pay the mortgage. Some mortgage agreements allow assumption by a family member after the death of the original mortgagor.

In the case of real property the parent's estate must be probated in order for title to the property to pass to the heirs legally. You should consult with an attorney who specializes in probate law in your area.

Why do banks charge borrowers a higher rate of interest than they pay their depositors?

First a bank is not a nonprofit business. The difference in the interests rates is how they make their money and cover the cost of loans that default. By lending someone money the bank is risking that the money wont be paid back. That risk is theirs to carry if they charged the same interest to the borrowers as the depositors there would be no money cushion to cover the loss of a bad loan and it would be unfair for the depositors to loose their money because the bank made a bad loan.

How do you start a landscaping business mowing foreclosed properties?

You will need to get a business license and obtain general liability insurance, I would recommend getting free information on the foreclosure cleanup network, once you are ready to begin you will have to sign up as a Reo vendor with all the banks and asset management companies, you then put all the zip codes in your profile of what areas you would like to accept work. www.dreamstreetinvestments.com has a list of all the bank contacts and a large list of training courses, I would also try there, they were very helpful when we were starting out. You can also advertise your services to the local realtors that list bank reo homes "bank owned properties", they too will use your services. I would recommend to create a flyer of your services and drop it off at all the local real estate offices. Then set up a website and get business cards-pass them out to everyone you know.
