Pre-foreclosures, which are in the period before the foreclosure sale. Foreclosures, which exist when the property is taken back by the lender and sold at public sales. REOs, which exist when the lender ends up with the foreclosed property in it's own inventory after the public sale. How do I find the owners and borrowers? Pre-foreclosure Properties – You can approach the owner or borrower up until the time when the property actually is sold through foreclosure proceedings. If the owner or borrower isn’t living in the property, use one or more of these methods to hunt them down: * Don't be shy! KNOCK ON THE DOOR! - Simply be polite and see if you can gather information directly from the homeowner or renter. If you can get in the door you stand a much better chance of making an offer or finding out where the owner is. You are offering folks a way out of foreclosure -and possibly a more lenient approach than the bank might take to when they must vacate- if you buy the home. * By Mail – Send a letter to the owner/borrower at the property address or leave a letter for the owner/borrower at the property address (if you put it inside a mailbox, the USPS requires that you put a first-class stamp on it). In the letter, explain that you understand the property is going into foreclosure, and that you have some options so the owner/borrower can avoid credit problems, or possibly even retain ownership. * Use Public Records – If the owner/borrower doesn’t live in the property, check with the county courthouse. They’ll have the owner/borrower’s name on record. * Ask Neighbors – If the property is vacant, talk with neighbors to see if anyone knows how to reach the owner/borrower. Be sure to tell them you’ve got information to help the owner/borrower. * Open the Telephone Book – If you still can’t locate the owner/borrower, try calling people who have the same last name. You might happen upon a relative. Foreclosure Properties – You’ll find foreclosed properties at a public sales. The day, date, time and place is published in the newspaper. The usual location for foreclosure sales is at the county courthouse, and sometimes, they’re conducted on the courthouse steps. REOs – After the foreclosure proceedings, the lender may end up with the property if no one bids more than the lender’s bid, which is equal to the loan balance. At this point, the property is referred to as an REO or “real estate owned” (by the lender) property. REOs are great investment opportunities.

FREE Newsletter. Sign Up Now! Make Sure it's Your House they Come Back to for a Second Look Here's a critical bit of home selling advice: don't even think of putting your house on the market until you've taken a close look at its condition. You usually only have one shot at impressing potential home buyers, so take some time now to prepare the house for showings and you might be rewarded with a faster sale and a higher offer. Home Prep Basics Everything from floors to windows must be spotless, including the oven and other major appliances. Skylights should be crystal-clear, too. Do not forget to make bathrooms shine! Kill the offensive odors. They're the first thing buyers notice, and often a permanent turnoff. Eliminate Clutter: Put away small kitchen appliances and other items that are sitting on countertops and tables. Remove photographs and other small items from table-tops. Organize closets and cabinets. Outside Tasks Clean the drain gutters. Buyers nearly always comment if gutters are full of leaves and it makes them question other maintenance issues. Store or organize items that make the yard look messy. Make your front entry inviting. Decorate it, paint the door, or buy a new door. It's the first look at your house, so make it a good one. If the Home Is Vacant Vacant homes often home buyers with a blast of stale or mildew-laden air, and once buyers smell mildew, they are out the door. During cold months, the interior of a house without heat always feels colder than it is outside. Leaving the heat or air conditioning running while a home is on the market reduces odors and makes the house more inviting. Keep the lawn and landscaping tidy, even if you have to hire someone to do it. That's a start, but you're not finished yet. Take your prep work to the next level if you want to be ready for buyers. 1 2 Next Important disclaimer information about this About site.

Carol Mann Sales director SIPPS - Residential Property and Pensions It is now possible to purchase residential property in both the UK and overseas utilizing a Self Invested Personal Pension (SIPP) as long as completion does not take place before 6th April 2006. This means that your pension can buy property off plan today. The main requirements are as follows: The property must satisfy the lawyers and trustees in respect of due diligence ie the property or development must satisfy the necessary legal requirements such as planning permission, legal title, building licenses etc If let, the property should be managed by a professional letting and/or management company For property located in the UK, the income (rent) received will be free of income tax, and on the future sale of the property there will be no capital gains tax on the profit. For property located overseas, the tax position is yet to be fully clarified, but it is anticipated that there will be an element of income and capital gains tax that cannot be reclaimed if the purchase is overseas and that countrys tax regime dictates that income and capital gains tax is chargeable on investment property. The precise position in relation to taxation will be clarified later this year. Your SIPP will be able to borrow up to 50% of the total fund to assist with a property purchase. However, most trustees will require absolute certainty that the monies will be available in your pension fund at completion. This could be in the form of an unconditional mortgage offer at the time of paying the deposit, or a certainty that you or your company will make a contribution in the next tax year (when contribution limits and subsequent tax relief is greater than in the current tax year). It is also possible for individuals to collectively purchase property with other individuals pension funds. This syndication is straightforward and enables people who have smaller pension funds to pool resources. Some practical points if you dont already have all your funds in the right type of SIPP: You may have several pension schemes with a number of different insurers. Before you can consider a property purchase, you will need to transfer some or all of your pension funds to a SIPP with a company who have confirmed that they will allow you buy residential property now. In order to avoid any delay, and ensure that you buy your chosen property at the best possible price, it is possible for you to pay a reservation fee and initial deposit(s) from your own resources, and the property to be purchased from you, by your pension after April 2006. This will enable you and your adviser time to affect the necessary transfers to the SIPP to ensure that funds are available before completion. You will of course need to ensure that you will have sufficient monies in order to complete the transaction and cover all anticipated costs. Please ask us for further details if required. When the pension purchases the contract from you, this may create a chargeable event (we anticipate that the property will have increased in value between now and next April) and hence you may be liable for capital gains tax. This could be an opportunity for you to realize gains within your annual CGT exemption. For example, a purchase at one of our golf resorts would currently cost approximately £125,000. Assuming that prices increased by 6% between now and April 2006, the market value would be £132,500 and this is the price that the pension would have to pay. This would create a taxable gain of £7,500 which is within the annual exemption and would be tax free (assuming that you have made no other gains in the current tax year). If you purchase the property jointly, you could make gains of up to £17,000 without paying any capital gains tax. This gain could be invested in your pension in the next tax year (as a contribution), and enjoy tax relief. For a basic rate taxpayer, this would gross up to £9,615 and for a higher rate tax payer, £12,500. Hence, by acting now, you could effectively fund around 10% of the purchase price with some simple yet legitimate tax planning. If you have high earnings, paying tax at 40% (and available capital now), rather than paying £125,000 for a property, you could, through pension contributions post April 2006, pay as little as £67,500 for a property purchased today at £125,000 by a combination of the above, and the higher rate relief available on your post A day contribution. This equates to an immediate gain of 54%. You need to accept that the actual structure of the purchase and precise taxation implications have yet to be clarified for overseas property. It is confirmed however, that the purchase can take place, provided the property is deemed by the trustee to be suitable. Syndication We believe that there will be a great demand for collective property purchase, for people who want to combine a sound financial investment with the ability to use a property abroad for occasional personal use, but dont have sufficient funds in their own plans. For an additional fee, you can syndicate with other people to jointly own property and pool your resources. These other people could be family members, friends or colleagues. Because of the charges and other practical implications, we anticipate that this will be available to people who have a minimum fund value of around £25,000. Beneficiaries on death do not have to be the other syndicated owners, but the relevant documentation needs to be in place to deal with things like retirement and death in much the same way as company directors effect a shareholders agreement to clarify these issues.
