The home on Acacia is pending escrow. SOLD :(
In this market, the first step for you is to have a pre-approval from a direct lender. Bank of America would be your best bet as they control a large amount of the bank owned properties in the area. Either directly or indirectly. Tamara Kimsey works in the Riverside branch which is one of the only that also funds within the office which makes things easier and allows good communication (951)545-5870. Once you have a pre-approval, you can really start your search. There are fewer to choose from and they all sell VERY quickly so, you have to be on the ball and have all of your ducks in a row BEFORE you start. Choose someone LOCAL and make certain they have experience in BOTH bank owned property listings AND sales. Having the internal knowlege of the process will make your experience a LOT less hectic. I see many an agent make 15 20 offers and NEVER get a property for their client. If it gets to that point, you need to find another agent. There is a ton of competition for good homes but, that is where experience will pay off in a big way. Good luck in your search and contact us if you would like more information. Have a great day! :)

Hi Kvitale,
I hear you! There are some great prices on property right now, but you need a good agent to guide you through the home buying process. A good buyer agent will actually assist you in making a wise choice and it costs you nothing to retain one. We are paid by the seller of the property..you have nothing to lose. If you need assistance with a referral for an agent in your area, Ican help you, my contact information is below.

Hi,
The house I am refurring to is located at 41403 Acacia Ave in Hemet. Our credit should be great. We have been renting the same duplex for over 20yrs now . We both work full time and we own 2 cars with 1 car paid off . We have checked out this house several times over the year and today we both went by this house at different times and all of a sudden we want to know more about it. We would be first time homebuyers.. been together for 22 yrs and have lived in Hemet since 1986. Thankyou
