What it comes down to in order to successfully purchase beachfront property is identifying good potential markets to invest in, and doing some legwork and research to analyze what it is going to take in order to put together a deal with the homeowner or lender involved in the foreclosure. Recently, RealtyTrac published its own list of potential beachfront investment communities ripe for the purchase of vacation

Solving the MERS Mystery
That’s because when they see MERS — or its expanded manifestation, Mortgage Electronic Registration System — listed as the lender for a property, it often means extra work finding contact information for the actual lender who is foreclosing. Foreclosure documents often list MERS as the lender even though it is not able to answer any questions about the property, let alone entertain offers from interested buyers or investors. Many foreclosure investors consider MERS a four-letter word. MERS is a system used by many in the finance industry to track loans and the lenders

Foreclosure Lessons from Long Beach: Part II
As promised, here is another lesson about successfully searching andpursuing foreclosures based on a recent conversation with a customerwho was searching for properties in Long Beach, Calif. Lesson 2: Call the trustee or lender to get most recent property status After you find a property that interests you, first call the trustee (for pre-foreclosures and auctions) or the lender (forbank-owned properties) to make sure the property is still inforeclosure before you sink any more of your valuable time into pursuingthe property. Confirming the status is necessary because although RealtyTrac checksif a property is SOLD, there may be a delay before we receive thatinformation and the owner in default could also reinstate the property,meaning it is no longer in foreclosure even though it did not sell.Also, even if RealtyTrac has an auction date listed, its not uncommonfor that auction date to be postponed, something you could only findout from the trustee.
