Vacant Houses Attract Problems

2010-06-28T20:46:37Z

I’ve been dealing in vacant houses nationwide in recent weeks.

Here are some vacant house problems that I’ve run into:

Back taxes due for more than 1 year.
Daily nuisance fees or code violations of $250 a day. One house had $18,000 in these fees.
Arson
Vandalism and graffitti.
Bullets shot into the house, or through the windows.
Pipes that froze over winter and busted.
Water leaks that ruined floors, subflooring, and the like.
Some have been torn down by the county because they were just too neglected.

If your house is vacant and is taking too long to sell, the reality is that in so.me areas of the country, that is an open invitation to problems.

One way not to avoid foreclosure

2010-04-29T22:47:03Z

Today a seller called me, wanting to avoid foreclosure next week.

His home is in another state, as I now market our avoid foreclosure services nationwide.

Unfortunately for me, he had waited too long to avoid foreclosure. He couldn’t avoid foreclosure any more.

There was no time to

Visit the property
Negotiate with the bank on a short sale
And close the transaction in another state

A few weeks ago, another seller did the same thing on a parcel of land. Foreclosure Auction was to be in 3 days.

One way not to avoid foreclosure is to wait until the last minute.

If you want to avoid foreclosure, you need to start the process early.

If you owe more than your house is worth, you have to start really early in the process to work a short sale.

If you have equity in your home, you can keep more of it by starting early. The longer you hold out to avoid foreclosure, the less equity remains in your home. It’s a ticking clock, day by day.

There might be other companies out there who will do emergency closings the day of the auction, but we do not.

Buy Ugly Houses Anywhere

2010-04-26T17:27:16Z

In recent weeks, I’ve started buying ugly houses anywhere.

For example, this week, I’m working on a really ugly house that has had 3 feet of standing water in the basement — it’s likely been that way for a while.

The foreclosing bank tried to deal with it — couldn’t handle it.

I thinking that a deal is forth coming to buy that ugly house.

Here are two more examples of buying ugly houses anywhere:

Two weeks ago, a vacant house that had been vandalized, stripped to the studs, and windows broken. We agreed to buy that ugly house for cash, and it closed in less than 2 weeks.
Last month, we got a really ugly house sold to one of our our investors. The cats had peed in it for so long that all visitors had a gag reflex and needed to shower afterwards.

Right now, we are moving ugly house inventory in many different states.

If you have a really ugly house, but don’t know how to get rid of your ugly house, we might be able to make something happen for you.

We can present you with different options that help us buy your ugly house, anywhere in the United states.

Buy My Vacant House

We Buy Vacant Houses

Do you have a vacant house?

Is Your House Vacant?

There are several different reasons why your house will often sit vacant.

Here are some vacant house reasons I’ve run into

Inherited house after the passing of the family member who lived in it.
Condemned by a government authority
Toxic houses for mold or other environmental issue.
Fire damage
Or maybe you’ve had to move and leave your house vacant.

Problems for Vacant Houses while waiting to Sell.

It may or may not be by choice, but it is almost always a problem for the owner.

One seller had tried conventional means to sell his house. While it sat empty:

A homeless man had moved in.
Theives stole the Air Conditioner Unit motors
Vandals broke windows.

When I first visited the vacant property, I encountered a homeless man sleeping on the sofa left there to stage the vacant house.

You likely know that unoccupied and vacant houses have a tendency to draw unnecessary attention to themselves.

Many times it’s the unwanted attention from neighborhood kids or others who see it as an opportunity to break out windows or vandalize the house.

I had the gutters stolen off one of my vacant houses while I was working on it. Another one — the pipes froze and burst overnight. . . Water ran for up to three days. Damage!

Last week a caller with an ugly house contacted us.

Ugly house due to lots of junk.

The ugly house was not the problem.

Stuff was stacked floor to ceiling.
Cobwebs in corners
Trails navigating through the junked up stuff.
Outdated stuff, but mostly pack-rat type piles of stuff.
Did i Mention stuff?

That could be fixed.

UGLY and STINKY HOUSE

On top of having a really ugly house, the house stunk.

Cats had littered and urinated everywhere.

Cats.

Visiting the ugly house triggered a vomit reflex.

After visiting, one felt like you had to take a shower.

One couldn’t do any business in the house, couldn’t even stay in it very long. It was too ugly, too smelly.

Sometimes I’ll visit ugly houses, but stinking houses must be the last appointment of the day.

Pick your buyer – how not to sell a house fast

2010-03-04T22:58:43Z

Today, I spoke with a seller who wanted to sell her house fast.

She is not the right seller to sell her house fast for one reason.

She had a strategy for the buyer.

She owned two of four houses on what could become a 1 acre lot if all four houses were purchased.

Her property was right next to a strip mall and she wanted a buyer of her house to buy not only her two, but also the two others that she didn’t owe and build a commercial strips shopping center.

In other words — she wanted a buyer to fulfill her plan to build a commercial center.

There is no way I could buy her house fast.

I didn’t want a shopping center.

I didn’t want four houses.

I didn’t want to buy the neighbor houses.

She wanted to pick her buyer to whom she’d sell her house fast.

Thus, she will not sell a house fast.

In this type of market — sellers — you cannot pick your buyers. If you want sell your property fast, you simply let your buyer buy it, regardless of what they want to do with with.

How to sell your really ugly house Fast

2010-02-01T17:01:51Z

Do you have a really stinking ugly property that no one wants?

I’ve a had a few ugly houses come my way and let me tell you the way it works.

How to Price it

Do you want to me to buy your really ugly house?

The best way for me to get you top dollar is for you to understand the formula I use. If your number to sell your really ugly house and my number to buy your really ugly house is close, then we can do business.

1. What would your house sell in a reasonable 30 days if it was the prettiest one and best featured one in your neighborhood.

2. What are the amount of repairs needed to get your ugly house into that condition?

To qualify for our cash in this market, your price of your ugly house must fit our formulas that use those two values and still have a reasonable profit spread that makes everyone happen.

Here is a basic guideline.

If top dollar is $100,000, and your ugly house needs 50,000 in repairs, we could pay no more than $10,000 for your property.
If top dollar is $100,000, and your ugly house needs $20,000 in repairs, we could pay no more than $35,000 for your property.

Of course, I don’t reveal our entire formula, but these give you some kind of guidelines when trying to sell your ugly house. You’ll find these formulas somewhat consistent across the skilled cash investors.

Sell your house fast with Terms

2009-11-30T12:34:19Z

Do you have lots of equity in your house that you want to turn into cash flow?

Let me give you an example of a Free and Clear Property.

This is a property that doesn’t have any mortgages or liens on it.

Perhaps the house was one you inherited.

Perhaps it’s been vacant for a few years draining cash from you with utilites, insurance and taxes.

Perhaps it needs serious updating and you don’t want to do it.

How could you turn this money drain into a cash producing assett without the headaches of being a landlord?

Turn it into an Real Estate Asset!

Here is how.

By selling on terms, you can turn your money drain into a cash producer each and every month, without the headaches of being a landlord.

Here is an example from a recent purchase we made.

Seller owned the house free and clear, but was a long distance landlord.

The tenants were leaving and she didn’t want to find new ones or have to repair the property.

We bought the house on the following terms.

We’d pay her $450 a month for 8 years.

She keeps monthly cash flow without the headaches of long distance ownership.

Perhaps you have a house free and clear that you’d like to turn into a cash producer.
