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.

40 Is the New 30 for Lenders and Investors
