Laguna Homes also specializes in buying and selling distressed homes, or homes whose owners are in financial difficulty and have to put their homes on the market. If you’re looking to buy or sell distressed property in Laguna Beach, here’s how Laguna Homes can help.
Short sale:
If your mortgage is underwater and you can no longer afford payments, a short sale lets you get rid of the burden without going through foreclosure. Basically, you sell your home for less than what you owe and pay your lender with the proceeds, with the difference usually forgiven. For buyers, we offer assistance with searching and choosing short sale homes, as well as negotiating with lenders for faster approval.
REO:
A real-estate owned property (REO) is one that failed to sell at a foreclosure auction. The home is reverted to the bank’s ownership, and the bank tries to sell it off, usually after making repairs to get better asking prices. Laguna Homes can help you search REO homes and negotiate with lenders for optimal prices.
