Lake Orion Michigan Foreclosure Listings Are NOT Available For Sale BEFORE Hitting The MLS
I am asked multiple times a week if I can let someone know about Lake Orion MI foreclosure listings before they hit the market. When I say “there is no way” I am then often asked about RealtyTrac. RealtyTrac reports foreclosure notices. Many houses that are served a notice of foreclosure do not go into foreclosure. In fact, it appears that actual foreclosure listings here in Lake Orion MI are on the decline and many distressed Lake Orion home owners are going the short sale route.
We have a couple of foreclosure agents in my office and I’m friendly with other foreclosure agents who work in Lake Orion Michigan and have been assured that the vast majority of foreclosure listings DO get sold through the MLS, and have to be available on the MLS for a minimum of 3 days before they even submit offers.
So, dear Lake Orion Michigan home buyer- Please rest assured that you are not missing out on any of those great foreclosure deals when you get a daily MLS update from me. Also, please be aware- sometimes foreclosure listings aren’t always the best deals. Many of the short sale listings sell for a great price, and the “regular” listings that truely want to sell are priced like a foreclosure or short sale.
