		<description><![CDATA[<p> The housing market over the past several years has undergone a drastic change.  Throughout the area the real estate market was once booming but now it has been replaced by bank seizures and high foreclosure rates.  You can see evidence of the record numbers throughout the nation and while some struggle to survive in this hard hit economy others take the opportunity to take advantage of hard to resist property deals. </p><p> For many households owning a home has turned from a dream into a nightmare.  The unstable job market, coupled with a struggling economy, has left many people unable to keep up with their home payments.  Distressed sales in the form of short sales, government seizures and bank repos have made it possible for many people to purchase properties at low prices.  To get a clearer picture according to the National Association of Realtors estimated that 55 percent of the homes sold nationwide during the first quarter of 2010 were distressed sales. </p><p> It is hard to deny that there are some great deals available on the market.  There are various properties available on the market that are way below market value.  You have the opportunity to catch great property deals at 20%, 30% or more off the retail value.  The lender wants to make sure that they collect the rest of the money that is owed on the mortgage.  In many cases making a profit is the least of their concern.  This is the perfect market for you to invest in a new home. </p><p> For those individuals who like to dabble in the real estate market this is a great opportunity to locate great properties and resell them to the public for more than you paid.  It is important to make sure that you are actually getting a good deal.  For example some of the foreclosures that are showing up on the market are relatively new homes.  Some of them are only a year or less old.  In many cases there is still a hefty amount owed on the mortgage so the lender price may not be a discount.  You may find that the lender asking price is very close to the full market value of the property.  Also some foreclosures properties are sold "as is" and you are unable to fully inspect the property.  You may find a property that only requires minor repairs but many of them have extensive damage.  Taking advantage of the low purchase price might not be worth all of the money needed to fix up the property. </p><p> It is possible to find a great foreclosure deal.  You want to start by finding a list of current foreclosed properties.  You can seek a licensed real estate agent to help you search your area for listings.  Many agents deal primarily with foreclosed properties so they can help you make a smart investment and purchase a property you can be proud of.  You may also find current foreclosed list on the websites of bank and government agencies that have properties available. </p><p> Tami Roberts owns and operates a real estate brokerage, MyFavoriteAgent.com llc in Foley, Alabama.  The very popular Daily Foreclosure Report offers subscribers free access to the best foreclosure deals on the Alabama Gulf Coast and Baldwin County.

The booming real estate market that once was seen throughout the area has now been replaced by bank seizures and record high foreclosure rates.  The real estate crisis is evidence in the record numbers across the area and while some people are still struggling to make it in this economy other people are taking advantage of great real estate deals. </p><p> Buying a home has always been the American Dream but for many households it has turned into a financial nightmare.  In many households, the unstable job market and the struggling economy have left individuals unable to keep up their home payments.  Distressed sales such as short sales, government seizures and bank repos have allowed many people to purchase properties at unbelievable low prices.  For example the National Association of Realtors estimated that 55 percent of homes sold nationwide during the first quarter of 2010 were distressed sales. </p><p> It is hard to deny that there are some great deals available on the market.  There are several properties available on the market that are below market value.  You have the opportunity to catch great property deals at 20%, 30% or more off the retail value.  The lender wants to make sure that they collect the rest of the money that is owed on the mortgage.  Oftentimes they are not focused on making a huge profit.  This is the perfect time to find the home of your dreams. </p><p> For those individuals who like to dabble in the real estate market this is a great opportunity to locate great properties and resell them to the public for more than you paid.  Anytime you find a foreclosure listing you want to make sure it is actually a good deal.  For example some of the foreclosures that are showing up on the market are relatively new homes.  You may locate a property where the home is barely a year old.  Oftentimes the property owner still owes a substantial amount on the mortgage so the price that the lender has advertised may not actually be a discount.  Sometimes the lender piece is actually closer to the property's full market value.  Foreclosure homes are sometimes sold "as is" and in many cases residents are unable to have a full inspection of the home completed.  Some of the properties require minor repairs but many have extensive damage.  You must decide if the low purchase price is worth the additional money needed to fix up the property. </p><p> It is not impossible to find a great foreclosure deal.  It is best to start by finding an up to date list of foreclosed properties.  You can seek a licensed real estate agent to help you search your area for listings.

<p> Buying a home has always been the American Dream but for many households it has turned into a financial nightmare.  In many households, the unstable job market and the struggling economy have left individuals unable to keep up their home payments.  Distressed sales such as short sales, government seizures and bank repos have allowed many people to purchase properties at unbelievable low prices.  For example the National Association of Realtors estimated that 55 percent of homes sold nationwide during the first quarter of 2010 were distressed sales. </p>
<p> It is hard to deny that there are some great deals available on the market.  There are several properties available on the market that are below market value.  You have the opportunity to catch great property deals at 20%, 30% or more off the retail value.  The lender wants to make sure that they collect the rest of the money that is owed on the mortgage.  Oftentimes they are not focused on making a huge profit.  This is the perfect time to find the home of your dreams. </p>
<p> For those individuals who like to dabble in the real estate market this is a great opportunity to locate great properties and resell them to the public for more than you paid.  Anytime you find a foreclosure listing you want to make sure it is actually a good deal.  For example some of the foreclosures that are showing up on the market are relatively new homes.  You may locate a property where the home is barely a year old.  Oftentimes the property owner still owes a substantial amount on the mortgage so the price that the lender has advertised may not actually be a discount.  Sometimes the lender piece is actually closer to the property&#8217;s full market value.  Foreclosure homes are sometimes sold &#8220;as is&#8221; and in many cases residents are unable to have a full inspection of the home completed.  Some of the properties require minor repairs but many have extensive damage.  You must decide if the low purchase price is worth the additional money needed to fix up the property. </p>
<p> It is not impossible to find a great foreclosure deal.  It is best to start by finding an up to date list of foreclosed properties.  You can seek a licensed real estate agent to help you search your area for listings.  There are some agents that focus primarily on foreclosed properties and they can help you make a sound real estate investment.  You may also find current foreclosed list on the websites of bank and government agencies that have properties available. </p>

The booming real estate market that once blanketed the area has been replaced by bank seizures and record foreclosure rates.

There are properties on the market that are way below market value.  You may be able to find properties that are 20%, 30% or more below the actual retail value.  The lender wants to make sure that they collect the rest of the money that is owed on the mortgage.  Oftentimes they are not focused on making a huge profit.

In many cases there is still a hefty amount owed on the mortgage so the lender price may not be a discount.  Many times the lender asking price is very similar to the full market value.  Many foreclosure properties are sold as is and future residents do not have a chance to fully inspect the property.
