Finally and easy way to research foreclosures, short sales, and REO (bank owned properties) on the Big Island of Hawaii. In the beginning I tried using RealtyTrac, and Yahoo real estate, but I found their numbers were so so far off track, and outdated, I couldn't even use them. The scary thing was that whenever you saw a report on TV, they quoted one of these sources! My next attempt at keeping up on foreclosures and short sales, was to manually go through every listing - one by one - and write them all down, very time consuming! I mean I am supposed to be out there selling properties - right? As the active listings grew to over 1,000 just here in Kona - it became unmanageable.
Those days are gone now - after years of asking our MLS to add these as - check offs - on our search engine - THEY DID IT!.
We now have search buttons that include - Foreclosure - Short Sale - REO - . The scary thing as that they put these buttons under a drop down menu that is labeled - Restrictions on Commissions-. Why would you have to do a search for a foreclosure, short sale, or REO under - restrictions on commissions - I know that sometimes they are limited, but it doesn't make sense. I mean back when Help-U-Sell or Assist To Sell were actually selling homes, I wasn't required to look up their active listings under that tab - just a little food for thought.
MLS Rules require that you have to register to view these - I have a link to my registration page below, don't worry it doesn't cost anything, (at least for you ) and it does not send out any spam. The only thing I ask is that when you are ready to to make a purchase - please give me a chance to represent you in the transaction.
