You make a very thought provoking point. I appreciate how you explained it. Nice post. I certainly agree. Well done.

One house we recently showed in Hampstead was pretty well stripped. The former owners just ripped everything off the walls…can’t blame them I guess as it must have been very traumatic to lose your home like that.

Hi Linda, best of luck to you trying to sell your home.

Hi Chris, you are right cash buyers and excellent credit will be important as we transition through this market.

Chris, if you like Monika and I can prepare a market analysis for you to see where you will be price wise come summer time. Just lmk

Hi Samantha, you are lucky it all worked out. I can remember houses back in the early 90′s that were stripped inside and out and liens that were never disclosed, so buyer beware.

We bought a house in forclosure at an auction. We are finally moved in but it was hell! Instead of evicting the tenant (previous owner that foreclosed) we rented the house to him for the mo. of Jan. He took that time to strip the house of everyhing. It was a newly remodled home and now has no kitchen at all, bathroom (even toilet,) light fictures, water heater…and so much more! We lucked out because he was our tenant when he stripped the houseso insurance will cover it, BUT when buying at an auction it is AS IS so there is time for the house to be stripped “legally.” Also be aware of any tax leans on the proporty which could effect your closing cost.

Still worth it though….good luck!

Also, we are selling 205 Wash Pond Road. This is listed on loopnet.com. The selling price will be lower than the asking price on loopnet. This is my personal property. I will be up there this summer and want to close in August. This is not one of my notes, I bought this 1.3 acre property with a nice 3bed 1bath cottage 3 years ago for a summer vacation spot.

Any buyers out there? 4% commish to seller.

The banks are so backed-up that they can’t process the basics in this market. Also with the times comes massive layoffs. The are cutting jobs at the same time when they need people who can get the work done. I have found that the more equity in a bank owned property the longer the bank takes and it seems that they are willing to let deals fall through. I have REO’S all over the country as well as pools of 1st’s and seconds. I sold 8million in seconds for 3.5 cents on the dollar just the other day. The market is not going to be back on track for quite some time and buyers, if they have cash or great credit, can make smart money in this uncertian time.

Good luck to all!
