OBX Foreclosure Update – October 11, 2009

Outer Banks Foreclosure Report for October 11

We are continuing to see strong sales of distressed homes. Distressed homes are those that are short sales or bank owned. (The final phase of foreclosure is the bank taking possession, after they take possession they need to sell. Often this can lead to great opportunities for those looking to buy a foreclosed home.) In September we saw distressed homes account for 25% of all sold homes on the Outer Banks. Of the 95 homes sold, 17 were bank owned and 7 were short sales.

When we see such a high percentage of distressed home sales, it lets us know there are still significant opportunities available for those who are looking to buy a home in the Outer Banks. If you are interested in buying a foreclosure or short sale in the Outer Banks, join our email newsletter.

Currently we are tracking 28 foreclosed or bank owned homes from Corolla to Ocracoke. Currently we are seeing prices range from $134,000 to $1,975,000. As you can imagine some homes are better opportunities that others. For more information on a home, contact our bank owned homes specialist, Dawn.

Outer Banks Foreclosure Update 9-25-09

Red Sky Realty Group — Fri, 25 Sep 2009 13:19:47 +0000

August was an interesting month on the Outer Banks MLS. Not since November of 2008 have we seen distressed home sales, bank owned homes and foreclosures, make up such a small percentage of the total sold residential homes. In November 2008 we saw distress sales account for 14% of the total sold homes. This August we saw distress sales account for 13% of the total sales. For August we also saw a total of 124 homes sold on the OBX MLS as compared to 59 homes in November 2008 and 104 homes in August of 2008.

For those looking to sell their home in the Outer Banks, this is a very encouraging sign. For those who are looking to buy a home, and were waiting for the market to stop declining, now may be the time to get out looking. Some great opportunities can still be found in Outer Banks foreclosures and short sales. It will be interesting to see where September ends up, by there definitely has been an increase in those looking to buy homes on the Outer Banks.

Outer Banks Foreclosure Report for July

Red Sky Realty Group — Mon, 24 Aug 2009 18:55:27 +0000

Recently one of the hottest areas of the Outer Banks real estate market has been distressed and foreclosed home sales. Outer Banks distressed home sales include both bank owned homes and homes that are being sold as potential short sales.

In the month of July we saw a very encouraging statistic as 101 residential properties closed on the Outer Banks MLS. July was the third month in a row that over 100 homes closed on the Outer Banks MLS. This July was also up 13 sales when compared to July of 2008.

Bank owned homes and short sales are making up a large percentage of all transactions. 29 of the 101 properties were distress sales for a staggering 29%. Of those 29 sales, 20 homes were sold as bank owned. This was up from 18 bank owned homes sold in June.

It seems we will continue to see bank owned homes dominate the market until the distressed home inventory is cleared. This makes for excellent opportunities for those looking to take advantage of today’s real estate market. Many bank owned homes are easily converted into income producing vacation rental homes.

Our team can point you towards the best investments in the Outer Banks from foreclosures to oceanfront rental homes. Why wait any longer? Join our OBX Bank Owned Homes Newsletter.
