Trustee sales in Arizona can be a formidable way to quickly acquire a great new investment property or new home for a discount. Whether you are looking to generate monthly residual cashflow, flip a house for a profit, or secure your next dream home for your family, you’ll want to get a glimpse into the world of trustee sales in Arizona.
Statistics show that most home buyers hire a real estate agent and search for homes listed for retail prices. However, there is far less competition at the public foreclosure auctions. This is not surprising for a variety of reasons. There are great deals to be found at the auctions, but it takes a larger degree of homework to find properties worth bidding on.
- You have to go to the Maricopa County Recorders office to sift through hundreds of properties up for auction
- Physically inspect the properties for repairs
- Thoroughly check the title for liens and encumbrances (make sure its a first mortgage and not a second)
- Get an accurate valuation of the properties
- Show up at the location, either court house or attorneys offices, for the trustee sale
- Have a $10,000 cashiers check properly made out to the trustee just to bid
- Be prepared to have the cash for the balance of property by 5pm the next business day
That can be too overwhelming for 99% of real estate agents or home buyers!!
