There are two nice sized porches on the front and back that provide adequate seating and space for some outdoor time. A great asset of this property is the large, nearly level lawn. With well over an acre of yard there is plenty of room for outdoor activities for the big and little kids! An area in the back can be used for an evening camp fire. The lot is beautifully flanked by maple trees planted along the edge of Richardsville Road. There is a shed approximately 12' X 12' for storage. There is also an 8' X 27' truck box that has been used for storage that will be a part of the sale. Seller will be removing some personal items and tools. There is also a small pop-up camper the Seller will consider making a part of the sale. The property is made up of two parcels: .867 acre and .66 acre, totaling 1.53 acres. There is a 20' private road referenced in the deed between the two parcels. There is no evidence of any type of road on the property. Seller believes it may have addressed a time in the past when there were two different owners of the two parcels. The Seller is looking for a quick clean sale, prefers a cash deal, but may be open to other options. Ray's Retreat – The Life's A Bear Getaway and Retreat!

HUD Foreclosures

HUD foreclosures and VA Foreclosures are some of the best homes to buy when price is part of the equation. As with most Americans, price is always a concern. If not buying the same house for less, why not buy more house for the same dollar invested? When looking for a good deal it is hard to do better than the VA or HUD foreclosures market. The simple truth is that there are just more VA and HUD homes on the market, as they represent such a large number of mortgages that are generated each year. This translates into more foreclosures just by the magnitude of difference between all others comparing to the two largest. The two largest also being government owned and operated means that they have less time to wait to make money back on the home. The FHA is especially known for selling HUD homes for less than the average sales price in a given area. FHA foreclosures represent a fraction of HUD but they are still a significant number of homes and both should be considered. VA (Veterans Administration) and HUD (Housing and Urban Development) have different and unique opportunities for the buyer. Both are often forgiven for the local taxes normally associated with the purchase of a home (this is on a county by county basis). Be sure to ask the local title company or escrow company to look into it for you before closing as this is often missed due to their are not used to dealing with the 2 to 3 percent of the market that VA and HUD foreclosures represent.

Foreclosure Listings Increasing

As the market settled after the mortgage meltdown foreclosure listings also settled and fewer homes were on the market with a placard reading “Bank Foreclosure” in big red lettering. This was a good thing for the entire real estate market. Having an abundance of foreclosures brings the entire market down and it makes it harder for home owners, who would like to move, to get the appropriate price for their home as a similar home down the same street was sold for substantially less and the appraiser is using the foreclosure as a comparable sale. This is just one of the problems when there are too many foreclosure listings in any area. Another issue is the television set that sits in everyone’s living room harping about the price of homes based on the number of foreclosures and this constant barrage of negative information makes most people sit on the sidelines waiting for the market to either implode completely or to correct itself. Meanwhile while they wait, others are buying foreclosure listings and making great investments. Whatever the reason, a market can only handle so many foreclosure listings at any given time. The more foreclosures, the lower the market gets and this is a lesson the banks that were foreclosing and selling off realized too late. The market and their investments would have been better off if there had not been a rush to divest themselves of the toxic assets made more toxic by their own actions.
