Buying a Short Sale in Boise

It's been a buzz in the nation lately, short sales and foreclosures, and Boise has its fair share of available short sale properties. Like foreclosures, short sales are homes with significantly slashed prices, and buyers pursue short sales to get a good deal. However, short sales aren't quite as straightforward and simple as your typical foreclosure sale.

We'll guide you through the short sale process in the simplest of terms, as short sales can be a daunting, and very detailed process. As you begin your consideration of purchasing a short sale, choosing Boise as your real estate destination brings many fabulous opportunities.

Hughes Group recommends getting your finances in order before you begin searching through Boise short sales. You'll be significantly ahead of the game if you come in as a strong, serious, pre-qualified purchaser.

Pairing up with an experienced agent is a must that cannot be overstated enough. Taking on a short sale transaction is complicated, and it's important to work with an agent who has plenty of experience in short sales.

With Start Packing, identifying available short sales is possibly the easiest part of the process! Our state of the art MLS makes it simple to see all available listings of Boise short sales. These listings are an incredible tool that makes the short sale hunt that much easier.

What is your intention? What is your purpose and intended use once you find the Boise short sale that fits your criteria? You may be looking at the short sale for your primary residence, to invest in for a profit, or to rent out to supplement your monthly income. Whatever the reason, it's important that you know the amount of work the house will need. What is the overall cost, including the repair work? What is the real repaired value of the home? Remember, all short sales are sold "as is".

When you execute your offer, even in the event the seller accepts your offer, the lender must also approve. Be aware that this can take time...sometimes a lot of time. Weeks and even months will pass by. When involved with purchasing a Boise short sale, be prepared to participate in the waiting game.
