With the constantly changing market we are in my goal is to keep you up to date with the most current statistics in the Santa Clarita Area. As potential buyers these numbers help you to understand what the price ranges are for bank owned and short sale properties. There is a big misconception when it comes to bank owned properties. Many are led to believe that these homes are the better deal in today's market. A home goes back to the lender after the foreclosure process is completed. There are many reasons for this. Unfortunately the main reason is most people are paralyzed with fear and don't know who to turn to.
If you look closely at the statistics the areas where the REO's (bank Owned) are listed higher then the short sales they are generally newer developments within Santa Clarita, Stevenson Ranch, Valencia. Realtor's who allow a property to go into foreclosure and become REO's (bank Owned) empower the lenders to set a higher market value in an attempt to reduce their losses. The period of time between the first missed payment and the final bank sale is called the pre-foreclosure phase. In this period a buyer has a window of opportunity to negotiate a price which could be up to 20% below Fair Market Value. The above mentioned areas as you see statistically the short sales are the better value to negotiate and purchase. You as a buyer need an agent who truely understands this market and can help you get your desired home whether it be a bank owned or short sale listing. With so much information and misinformation you need an agent that is not an average agent to guide you through these investment opportunities.
