HOW TO SELL YOUR HOUSE IN HIGHLAND CALIFORNIA – HIGHLAND CA REALTORS

Q: What goes into a successful home or property sale in Highland, California?

A home sale can be simple, difficult or unsuccessful depending on the property, seller or agent. Careful consideration must be given when venturing into the competitive Highland CA real estate market.

A successful sale consists of a compelling listing, effective exposure and competent negotiations and completion.

When a Highland home is listed, it should first be analyzed and objectively compared to recent comparable sales and other competitive listings in the area, also known as a CMA (Comparative Market Analysis).

Then the seller, under the advice of their savvy Realtor, should carefully digest and consider the CMA. Every detail must be exhausted. Does the seller’s Highland California property have the same features and amenities? Is the property worth more, less or equal to other comparable sales? Is the location, lot position or structure more, or less appealing? A seller must also consider the terms, conditions, inclusions and exclusions of the sale.

But a potent market value and list price is just the beginning. When the Highland CA property listing is ready to go public, exposure is everything.

Q: What is effective exposure for a Highland real estate listing?

How can anyone buy your Highland California house if no one knows it’s for sale?

A home will only realize it full market value in a sale if multiple potential buyers have been reached.

How is that accomplished? Real estate marketing has changed dramatically with the advent of the Internet. Gone are the days of yard signs, newspaper listings and open houses. Today more than 85% of homebuyers begin their property search online.

But where online are they looking? The short answer is ‘Everywhere’. From major sites like Zillow, Trulia and Redfin, website search engines like Google, Yahoo and Bing, email listing sources from agents, brokers and other real estate services, to Craigslist and even direct online MLS (Multiple Listing Services).

So where is the best place to list your Highland CA property online? Again, the only right answer is ‘Everywhere’.

But does online marketing mean traditional marketing should be ignored? Of course not. But the evolution of real estate marketing should dictate the appropriate allocation of time and resources.

Q: Then What?

Once your Highland home has been effectively marketed, buyers will view the property and determine, along with their agents, what their best offer is. Choosing the right buyer is key: Have they offered a fair price and reasonable conditions? Are they capable of executing the purchase and do they have the means, money and/or credit? Are they truly interested in the property? These and other questions must be asked and answered.

After all of this, the sale of your Highland California property is still not complete. Escrow must be opened. Disclosures must be addressed and signed. Contingencies must be met and waived. And finally, funds must be deposited and dispersed.

Q: So what is the first step to a successful sale of your home or Highland CA property?

Choose the right Highland real estate agent.

So call us now and let’s talk.

According to a real estate study conducted by USC, the Southern California commercial real estate market is on the rise, which could include the Banning CA commercial real estate market as well.

According to the article:

"The office and industrial real estate sectors continue to improve for Southern California landlords, a report said, but high office vacancy will remain common for the foreseeable future as businesses put more workers into less space.
The regional economy has strengthened the past year and enabled some businesses to hire more workers, according to USC’s annual Casden office and industrial property forecast.

That has resulted in higher occupancy and rising rent for industrial buildings, while office landlords are seeing rising occupancy and smaller declines in the amount of rent they can charge.

“We predict office market rents to stabilize in as little as six months, but a sustained recovery could be many years off,” said Casden report author Tracey Seslen.

Office occupancy probably won’t return to pre-financial crisis levels until some of the region’s office buildings are taken out of commission or converted to other uses.

“A paradigm shift in the way tenant firms use office space will force landlords and developers to rethink their investment strategies even as the economy improves,” she said.

UPLAND SHORT SALE AGENTS HELP AVOID FORECLOSURE

Don't make the biggest mistake ever... Do not let the bank foreclose on your Upland home!

Loan modification is a temporary fix and can still leave you with negative equity.

FIND CA REAL ESTATE AGENTS

A BETTER SOLUTION IS TO SHORT SALE YOUR UPLAND HOUSE

• A short sale can let your deficiency be forgiven
• In most cases a short sale can leave you with no tax liability
• Our short sale real estate services are at no cost to you
• And we can help you get out of your bad situation

Don't be fooled! The bank will come after you and foreclose your Upland house. They may even be able to get a judgment against you AFTER the foreclosure for the negative deficiency, which could be tens of thousands of dollars! But what is the difference between a foreclosure and a short sale? Here are your options of foreclosure vs. short sale:

CREDIT SCORE:

• A foreclosure will slash your credit score as much as 250 points or more, and can affect your credit for a minimum of 5 years or more!!!
• But a short sale only affects your credit score with the late or missed mortgage payments. The credit bureaus will report PAID or NEGOTIATED if you short sale.Your credit score will not be lowered as much with a short sale.

CREDIT HISTORY:

• A foreclosure will remain as public recorded on your credit report for 10 years or more.
• A short sale is not reported on a person's credit history. There is no specific SHORT SALE term and is most cases is reported as PAID, SETTLED or NEGOTIATED.

FUTURE MORTGAGE LOANS:

• If your credit report contains a foreclosure, most home mortgage lending institutions will consider you ineligible to purchase for 5 years or more.
• If you successfully negotiate a short sale of your Upland property you may be eligible for a mortgage loan and purchase a new home in as little as 2 years.

DEFICIENCY JUDGMENTS:

• Banks have the right to pursue a deficiency balance if your foreclosed loan was not a purchase money loan (If you received any money for anything other than the purchase of your house, also called a hard money loan).
• In a successful short sale it may be possible to negotiate with the bank to release you of any deficiency balance and avoid any future judgments against you.

How to Qualify For a Real Estate Short Sale - Montclair CA

I listed a short sale with 2 loans serviced by Chase. CLTV is LESS that 50% of market value. Submitted a CASH buyer and assigned a negotiator in less than 3 weeks. Today, he is submitting my package to the investor. 

We'll see...NOD in May 2012 but nothing posted in public record. Negotiating to include payoff to release an abstract of judgement from a deceased husband over a year ago. 

Scheduled to close AUGUST 30. 

It would be a great idea for the administrators of ShortSaleSuperstars to modify the site to allow the location of the agent (blogger) to be easily seen on the individual blog posts.  This way, we can be aware of the other agents in our area.  Reason: I like to keep away from competing real estate agents' blog posts as a courtesy so they don't think I have any intention of attracting their potential clients/visitors.

Can My Sister Buy My Orcutt CA Short Sale?

I am asked this question or a variation of this question all the time.  Strictly speaking, the answer is no.  Banks and investors generally will only approve a short sale if it is an arm’s length transaction.  What does arm’s length mean?   According to the Wells Fargo Banks’ Arm’s Length Affidavit that they ask the buyer, seller, and real estate agents involved to sign, it means:

No party to this contract is a family member, business associate, or share a business interest with the mortgagor. […] The Buyers and Sellers nor their Agents have any agreements written or implied that will allow the Seller to remain in the property as renters or regain ownership of said property at anytime after the execution of this short sale transaction.

Basically, if they are taking a loss they don’t want to see the defaulting homeowner gaining.  So, they want to make sure that there is no agreement to sell the house for less than what it is worth.  After all, you might cut your sister a deal, right?  And, they want to make sure there is no arrangement to allow you to rent the home and then buy it back at a later date.  And, your sister might agree to let you do that.  Now, I know what you’re thinking.  “What about my 3^rd cousin by marriage?  Can he buy it?  I don’t even like him.”  No, not even your cousin could get by this Affidavit.  And, Chase Bank’s affidavit is even more detailed.

Of course, you could make a disclosure to the bank and see if they will allow you sister or cousin to buy the house.  If there is any kind of conflict with the short sale buyer and the seller, I advise my seller to disclose it right up front to the bank.  And, they could allow it to go through – it is within their discretion.  However, as a practical matter, we may not get an answer as to whether they will waive the conflict until you are so far into the process that your options may become limited.  If the lender rejects your sister or your cousin as the buyer at the 11^th hour, and you haven’t been making payments, and you cannot get another acceptable offer to them quickly -- as a practical matter you may end up in foreclosure because you tried to sell your sister the house.  That is a gamble that most homeowners in distress do not want to take.

If you are considering a short sale of your Orcutt, Nipomo or Arroyo Grande CA home, you should seek out an experienced short sale agent to guide you through this process.  There are many pitfalls that can be avoided with the right upfront advice.  If you would like a short sale consultation, please call my office today to schedule one at (805) 938-9950.
