Probate leads are plentiful. With experts estimating
that more than 30,000 probates are filed each month
throughout the United States, each and every county has
new options of homes, personal property, vacation homes
and commercial real estate that are for sale. Executors,
responsible for the sale of property held by someone who
has passed, are under an obligation from their local court
jurisdiction to sell the property in order to close the
probate. What does this mean for you as an investor?
For real estate investors, probate properties offer
discounted prices, sometimes up to 30% to 50% off of
current market prices, on homes and other property
located in some of the most desirable areas of the region
that you work in. Executors are generally eager to look at
all offers for property as they need to sell the property in
order to pay medical bills, taxes, legal fees and funeral
expenses for their loved one.
Divorce and bankruptcy leads are also another way
to find great deals on property. Usually governed by the
local court system, these leads can also provide
excellent options for discounted prices. With divorce
and probate leads it is critical to have your attorney
review all of your documentation especially during your
first experience working in this market. The language
used in the sales documents can be different that is used
in traditional offers due to legal requirements. Ask your
legal counsel to ensure that there are ways for you to exit
divorce deals if the parties do not cooperate. As an
investor it is not wise to have your deal stalled due to
marital discord.
