Orlando, FL - Everyone has chased the “American dream” of home ownership. However, just a couple of years in the real estate craze, lots of dreamers purchased a home with hopes of one day reselling it for profit or keep it for their families future.
Most subprime lenders knowing the opportunity to make a huge profit and ‘trying to help those dreamers with homeownership’ made it so easy for most people to get a not so desirable mortgage and thousands of houses were bought with essentially no down-payment and over priced.
Eager new homeowners and their Realtors© rushed to closings with the good intention of repaying the loans as agreed, some may even have contemplated to refinance once their repayment ability would improve because they knew these loans would eventually start adjusting.
However, many others, came out of the closing table knowing for sure that they had not means of affording the mortgage payments and would eventually end up losing their homes to foreclosure but would enjoy homeownership if even for a short while.
As we know now, the market started shifting quickly, the media has had a field day with the gloom and doom of the industry, home value prices started decreasing at an alarming rate, the time of the homes for sale on the market increased dramatically, and those homeowners that wanted to find a more favorable financing option can not get refinancing which has created panicking and a home ownership nightmare.
Nonetheless, educated real estate professionals and investors can now step in to the marketplace and help many owners and lenders by offering solutions in this time of opportunity, the so called Buyer’s market.
Depending of the individual home situation, savvy investors can offer solutions ranging from negotiations with Subject To, Short Sale, Wholesale, Discounted Retail purchases and Lease Options.
