About Me
I have held a real estate license in Nevada since 1989, I have also held both Hawaii and California real licenses. Previously I worked for PSA/ USAirways Airlines, working customer service, operations, public relations (I introduced the MD80 to San Francisco and did very fun events) etc, prior to that I was a book keeper for Franklin Resources. My father was appointed by Govenor Regan to be the Secretary of the California Horse Racing board, I met very famous, wealthy and incredible people going to events with him. I also was honored to be a participant in the Miss California World pagent. I have always enjoyed help people find and create their dream home. I tend to sell some of the most beautiful homes in the South West Suburban area of Reno. I specialize in St Jamess Village, Montreux, Galena, Arrowcreek, Saddlehorn and Field Creek.

Foreclosure Homes - How do you buy them and is it wise?

Robin answered:
Buyer beware, if they did not have enough money for the mortgage, what items require repair? A neglected home may require more repair dollars than purchasing a well maintained home. Make sure you have a real estate professional do a comparitive market anaysis. Pay attention to the physical inspection, pest, mold, heat inspections. Make a cost analysis on time, money, repair talent. Do you need to hire professionals? Remember that a home can sometimes be in foreclosure for about a year. Think of neglecting a home for a year or more. - Wed Jan 30 2008, 16:14
Robin answered:
Normally in our area auctions create a higher price tag than making a lower offer. A real estate professional can work with lenders and justify a lower price. At auctions people get excited and tend to raise the price. I receive lists of all preforeclosures and foreclosures. Right now is a great time to buy but remember that to receive the greatest equity you need to commit to holding the property for 5 years - Tue Jan 15 2008, 09:18
