If you read the newspapers or watch your local news you know that selling a home in today’s market is a risky proposition and most real estate agents are not getting the job done. It is a home buyers market today and any qualified home buyers are looking for the perfect deal. Insurance and Taxes are forcing a lot of people out of their homes. Taxes, insurance and declining prices spell disaster if you need to sell your home. We will buy your home at a fair price based on current averages and sell fast. It’s a huge opportunity for REO asset managers,” said Jim Case, CEO of Fast Home Solutions, which recently launched its online property investors website at www.FastHomesolutions.com.  “We’re seeing investors from all over, especially France, Germany and Belgium, as well as from the United Kingdom, Canada and Australia.  They are eager to buy U.S. homes, villas, properties now, while their own currencies are strong against our dollar.

This is good news for loan servicers and loss mitigation professionals charged with disposing of owned real estate.  The online auction concept, while not new, is experiencing a surge of popularity because of the ease with which properties can be vetted by potential buyers, whether for investment or owner occupancy.  “Asset managers are getting slammed right now by the sheer volume of properties they must sell,” observed Case.  “Online auctions are the best way to get properties in front of the most people, but REO people are so busy at the moment, it is difficult to consider new methods.”  Fast Home Solutions approach to attract REO listings is to avoid the negatives

buyers and sellers have seen in the past with online auctions.  “Buyers hate paying premiums to buy properties online, so we’ve eliminated them,” said Case.  “At the same time, investors want research on areas and values, as well as finding local property managers, so we’re adding content to make those available at minimal or no cost,” he added.

The “Half-back” Phenomenon
Further complicating things for REO asset managers desiring sell property in Sunbelt areas is the increase of people leaving places like Florida for financially more hospitable climes.  Their properties are competing with REO sales for buyer attention, and keeping prices low.  These are people who have been whipsawed by rising insurance rates caused by the hurricanes and sinkholes of recent years, as well as increased property taxes.  Rather than moving all the way back up north, they are going half way, to places like Georgia, the Carolinas and Tennessee, hence the term “half-back.”  “These neighboring states have much more attractive scenarios for these sellers,” explains Jim Case.  “And they still don’t have to put up with harsh winters.”  With these additional properties cluttering up the inventory, REO sellers are finding their work cut out for them.

This new wave of foreign investors may be the key to keeping the market moving, said Case.  “We send out over a million opt-in emails to investors every week and I can tell you that the demand for property listings is getting stronger every day,” he said.  “The dollar’s weakness right now may work out to be a blessing for the REO asset managers, especially since these foreign investors like to buy more than one.”
