Brazos Place

By Gus Rojo 12 05 2009

It’s not too late to contact me about the auction of 74 Austin condominium units at Brazos Place. The auction will take place May 17, and starting bids are more than 50% less than the original asking price.

Auctions can be a great way to purchase an Austin condominium home. With starting bids at approximately 50% of the original asking prices, auctions offer the opportunity for steep discounts, and establish a floor for the true market price. They result in buildings being occupied with homeowners who pay maintenance and make a community. This adds value to the real estate.

For more information about Brazos Place or any other Austin condominium auction, please contact  me. I’ll be happy to answer any of your questions, and help you obtain the best financing, and put forward your best offer.

SoCo

By Gus Rojo 1 05 2009

The hip neighborhood of South Congress in Austin known as SoCo was only a few years ago a seedy enclave of slumping businesses and hourly motels. The motels are restored, and have new glamour  which suits the views of downtown Austin and the unique group of restaurants, clubs, and shops which still give a feeling of SoCo’s “hippie” origins.

Check out these SoCo condos and lofts, and feel the eclectic energy that is SoCo!

Finding Austin Foreclosures

By Gus Rojo 27 03 2009

Foreclosures are on many people’s minds lately. Since the Federal Government has offered incentives to lenders to restructure people’s loans, local and state governments are encouraging home owners to seek help sooner rather than later and work with their lender to avoid foreclosure. Help includes restructuring loans, and the purchase of homes by municipalities and non profits.

Foreclosure is the last stop on the money crisis train for home owners. Once a home is foreclosed, the lender really does not want to own it. This is why for the savvy buyer, these homes can be a great deal.

Austin foreclosures are no longer just in risky neighborhoods. The foreclosure crisis has hit all sorts of homes in all types of areas.  Pre-foreclosure, many homeowners and developers are willing to negotiate with a buyer/investor. If they can walk away with a little cash and satisfied liens, and you have a property for less than the market value, it can be a win – win proposition.

How do you find pre-foreclosure opportunities? By searching for them on our site! Our partnership with RealtyTrac enables you to search all Austin foreclosure listings. Pre-foreclosures, foreclosure auctions, and bank owned properties are all at your fingertips on our site, and we can help you make sense of the entire process. We can also assist you with obtaining financing. Contact us today to learn more about Austin foreclosure opportunities.



Foreclosure Sales are Up Nationwide

By Erica Farthing 21 03 2009

There’s been a lot of attention to nationwide foreclosures in the news lately. The number of foreclosures is up this month, and looks pretty drastic. This is partly because of the moratorium on foreclosures in December and through February, awaiting word from the White House on how the federal government would intervene. Now that the moratorium is over, foreclosed properties that were already set for auction have been again scheduled for sale, and now there is a backlog of them.

Foreclosures are pressuring the real estate market in many cities, but providing many opportunities for home ownership. Formerly investors and “house flippers” were the majority at Austin foreclosure auctions. But now, regular home buyers who want a chance at an affordable home are flocking to Austin  foreclosure auctions.

While foreclosures in huge numbers hammer housing prices, efforts to sell the homes and get them off the market have two benefits. One is that once the large inventory of Austin foreclosures is off the market, housing prices can stabilize and a true market value can again be established, with homeowners once again building equity. The second benefit is obvious – the buyer gets a home at a low price.

Buying an Austin foreclosure is not without risk, since the buyer is responsible for repairs and all liens against the property, including taxes, construction liens, and second mortgages. When it comes to Austin condos, it’s possible to have less risk exposure than with a freestanding house.   We can help you with this. We can give you information about the building, the community, and assisting you in finding out the truth about all outstanding liens. We can also assist you with purchasing any foreclosure you choose, not just a condo.

Here at CondoDomain, we have partnered with RealtyTrac so that you can search all available and pending foreclosures in the Austing area. Take a look at these, and then call us with your questions.
