Short sales rising
Scanning the Southern California Multiple Listing Service (MLS) last week, the one thing that stands out is the growing number of short sales. Last year, you rarely saw the phrase “short sale” in the MLS property description. Today, approximately 10 percent of the listed properties are short sales. That indicates lenders are getting more eager to unload properties in foreclosure, even if it means selling them for less than is owed on the mortgage. Short sales occur when home prices fall and mortgage debt exceeds the value of the property.

Tips for Buying Short Sales from the Lender
With more and more sellers unloading their homes for less than what they owe on their mortgages, now is a good time for investors to start negotiating “short sales” with lenders . Next, when you talk with the lender's loss mitigator, you'll want to find out three things: • Will the lender agree to a short sale; • What additional information they'll need to complete the process; • Request the “payoff quote schedule,” which is what the lender thinks they are owed. Real estate investors can find good deals as long as you are aware of the extra time and work required to make it happen.

FBI: Mortgage Fraud Begets Foreclosure
The FBI recently came out with its 2006 Mortgage Fraud Report , which somewhat anticlimactically concludes that there is “a strong correlation between mortgage fraud and loans which result in default or foreclosure.” The correlation is apparent in the report’s list of the top states for mortgage fraud: California, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, New York, Ohio, Texas, and Utah. Six of those states also appeared in RealtyTrac’s list of states with the highest foreclosure rates in 2006. The FBI also lists Arizona, Colorado, Maryland, Minnesota, Missouri,

Florida Homeowners Overconfident Despite Foreclosures?
It seems to fly in the face of recent market activity statewide reported by the Florida Association of Realtors . That report showed a 24 percent drop in home sales both year-to-date and year-over-year through May 2006. Yet despite lower sales volume, FAR also reported that the states median home price continues to go up -- 11 percent on a yearly basis from May 2005, and 15 percent year-to-date, giving some credence to the 71 percent of homeowners surveyed Results of a new study released last week by Attorneys Title Insurance Fund (The Fund) suggests that Florida homeowners are feeling pretty good nowadays about the value of their homes and the potential for those values to rise further in the future.
