We provide pre-foreclosure drive-by BPOs for asset management companies and lenders upon request. Our reports reflect honest valuations based on true comparables. We efficiently service a wide geographic area including rural locations. Our expertise goes well beyond the typical "cookie-cutter" neighborhoods.

Initial Assignment Services

Occupancy Report
Within 24 hours of confirmation for new assignments, the property is inspected to determine occupancy status.
If occupied, we make every effort to make face-to-face contact with the occupant. If an interview is not possible, signs are posted at the property with instructions to contact us immediately. Details are promptly forwarded to the sellers' eviction specialist.

In accordance with sellers' instructions, vacant properties are:
  *  Immediately rekeyed and secured.

Interior BPO / Valuations
We will provide an accurate, detailed interior valuation in accordance with your guidelines. Typically within 72 hours, your order will be completed using your platform or vendor specific product. Rush orders are available when required. Interior valuations include a through evaluation regarding the property's maintenance and repair needs, as well as our recommendations to address marketability and merchandising issues. Detailed, digital photos are provided documenting our report. Comparables are throughly researched to provide a true value.

On-Going Services

Our office maintains an up-to-date "preferred" vendor list to provide timely estimates and services for REO properties. To the best of our ability, services provided by these vendors are closely monitored for proper completion and documentation. Invoicing for these services is submitted to the seller by our office.

Marketing the Property

Maximizing Exposure
We list all properties in the BLC (formerly MLS) and Realtor.com. Our company website and additional postings provides syndication to more than 30 on-line venues. Exposure is maximized by using multiple property photos, extensive BLC details and virtual tours. Additional exposure is generated thru our real estate e-newsletter; as well as website hotlinks from email, Facebook, etc. Local print media, property flyers and recognized property signage allow for traditional contact from non-internet savy buyers and on-the-spot drive-by inquiries.

When marketing unique and/or aggressively price properties, we often attact buyers from coast to coast. Our reputation for servicing residential, rural and recreational properties makes for a larger pool of buyers.

Flexible Office Hours - Convenient Showings
Our team is easily accessible during reasonable hours by cell phone or voice mail. Office phones are answered after office hours and on weekends, etc. We make accommodations for buyers schedules and provide superior  showing accessibility to other agents. For security purposes, buyers are not given access codes and must view the property with an agent.

Reports
Our staff prepares status reports within the timeframe specified by your company. We maintain a shared calendar and set-up email reminders of recurring tasks. Keeping asset managers well-informed and satisfied is one of our priorities. We will gladly provide you with additional documentation if requested.

Contract to Closing - Our Mutual Goal

Documents
The listing agent reviews all purchase agreements for items that require recommendations or explanations to the seller. The listing agent or his representative attends closings and reviews the HUD statement for accuracy. Property documents are retained by the listing broker.
