20 and will provide a temporary, three-year change to the tax code to eliminate any taxes homeowners might face when banks renegotiate the terms of a home loan and forgive a portion of the outstanding mortgage debt. Many times, says Randy Siems, a Missouri pre-foreclosure investor who made over $1 million in pre-foreclosure equity deals last year, the person answering the door isn’t aware that they are in foreclosure because their spouse hasn’t told them. “I once put together a deal where the wife didn’t tell the husband that they were in foreclosure,” said Siems, who engineered the deal

With real estate prices moving downward and more affordability coming back into our market it now makes since for young professionals to make the move from the cold and down to 85 degree weather in February.

Coastal Disasters = More Foreclosures?
For anyone who has lived through a natural disaster, the recent tornadoes in Central Florida and the horrific aftermath left behind — approximately 1,500 structures destroyed and 20 people killed — brings back memories of more than just the great need for disaster relief from the federal government (FEMA). It doesn’t matter if you’re living in Florida or California — coastal property is expensive and so are the insurance premiums that go with them.
