Advantage Realtors recently became a HUD Approved Broker to better serve our investor and home buyer clients. We have long helped our investor and buyer clients locate and purchase Bank REO, Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac Foreclosure Properties and this new certification as a HUD Approved Broker rounds out our access to available foreclosure properties. In addition to direct updates on avaliable properties from sources such as banks, Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac, we now receive daily hot lists of new Hud Homepath homes as well. We can show and submit offers on behalf of our clients for any and all classes of available forclosure properties no matter who the seller is – private asset managers, banks, or governmental institutions.
Now is the time to diversify your investment strategy and according to Advantage Realtors Broker/Owner, Robert Whitfield, “one of the best ways to diversify is to build a real estate portfolio. And there has never been a better time to do that than now. We are in a unique market that allows some of the best Atlanta real estate acquisition opportunities in the last 40+ years. Properly selected and managed investments should do very well. Except in unique and one of a kind circumstances, this is not a buy and flip market. It is an ideal rental investment market – by selecting a strategy of holding and renting properties for at least 5 years, you will allow for the maximum ‘built-in appreciation’ to come back for a much better net when you sell. When you can buy a home for $28K to $60K – the same price the raw lot alone would have cost you a few years ago, and moreover, for a price that you could not even buy the building materials needed to construct the home, much less the labor costs – you have built in equity and a buffer of such a magnitude that even if prices decline a little further over the next 16 months which is the worst case scenario, its still almost impossible not to do well over a 3-5 year timespan.”
