Real Estate Property Auctions of Las Vegas Homes
In the real estate market nowadays, there
have been many cases of removal of rights to redeem mortgages including those
owners of Las Vegas homes. Because of this, numerous buyers and investors of
Las Vegas homes are joining the auction circuit to take advantage on the next
great deal. If you are new to the auction block, here are some “rules of thumb”
to consider before placing your bid on Las Vegas homes from
PropertyAuction.com.
Exercise your due diligence. Be ready with
enough information on the property of interest before you place your bid. Most
of the auctioneers give a Property Information Package containing the
property’s vital information such as demographics, environmental information,
tax data, as well as the sale contract.
Understand what ‘As Is, Where Is’ condition
entails. Quite understandable, you give your consent to buy a property with
whatever flaws it has at the time of sale, in the location stated on the
contract. But if there is an ‘As Is, Where Is’ in the contract, this means that
the seller will not be held accountable for any damages or repairs need for the
property.
Be aware that most auctions do not come
with financing. According to Ori Klein, the president of PropertyAuction.com,
“Since the majority of real estate auction contracts have no financing
contingencies, it is imperative for a prospective auction buyer to be sure of
their ability to purchase the property in question. Usually, there are no
refunds on bid deposits due to lack of financing if you are the winning bidder.
Decide on the highest price you are willing to pay for the property in question
and tack on some extra for additional fees. Have your funds lined up and ready
to go by the time you’re going to bid.”
Don’t bid if you can’t close it. If you
can’t close on time due to some reasons, your deposit can be lost and you can
be held liable for extra damages and daily fines. Keep in mind that in only 30
days, most real estate auctions are closing. Therefore, be prepared to buy or
walk away.
Don’t bid with your emotions. Most people
want to achieve their dream house or their dream business. Whatever your
expectations, prepare yourself with an affordable price and don’t go over it.
Keep in mind that real estate auction sales are final.
Do property inspection. It is always a yes
if buyers want to inspect the Las Vegas homes
offered at the real estate auction.
This is to find out ‘As Is, Where Is’ details that you need to know before you
place your bid.
