Investor Buyers Like Orange County CA Foreclosure Values

Buyers and Investors like foreclosures 

Investor buyers like foreclosures  at  Orange County CA real estate - with good values, low prices, and solid rents.

Orange County like all of California has a foreclosure funnel - with some homes underwater - with others delinquent in payments, with some now in foreclosure where notice of default have been filed - and others bank owned after foreclosure.  

Investors aren't afraid of that news and are ready to buy more foreclosures at Orange County CA than the market has ready to sell.

Investor buyers see that many trustee auctions are postponed, or canceled, and that a small percentage of those are actually sold to third parties or back to the banks as REOs.

OC foreclosure filings Feb. 2012

Investor buyers like to see more foreclosures at Orange County - ready to buy them all either at trustee sale auctions or on the REO market.

During February, 2012, Orange County real estate foreclosure filing numbers were down - foreclosure sales at trustee auctions strong to third parties - and buyer demand invites foreclosures to be started and completed.  

OC foreclosure outcomes Feb. 2012

Investors bought 201 Orange County homes at trustee sale auctions during February this year, and buyers bought 342 REO homes on the open market during February.

Buyers and investors like foreclosures - good prices and value with high rents - at Orange County CA real estate.

Homes ending with foreclosure are either sold to third parties, or back to the banks as REOs, then eventually resold on the open market.

Orange County Ca real estate buyers are active and don't need government help or incentives to clear up foreclosure properties.

IRVINE CA REAL ESTATE UPDATE

Irvine then had 261 new deals opened in the past 30 days.  According to Thomas, Irvine had "market time" - months it would take to sell all inventory at that pace of new escrows - of 2.06 months vs. 3.44 months seen one year earlier.  

121 of the Irvine CA homes listed were either foreclosures being resold or short sales, where sellers owe more than the home's value - so distressed properties were 22.5% of supply of homes for sale.

Newport Beach CA Property Foreclosures - Does Government Regulation Help?

Newport Beach CA real estate - property foreclosure data - includes notice of default, foreclosure filings and inventory information.  

Newport beach foreclosure filings

Newport Beach had 18 new notice of default filings during February 2012 - which was down from last year - and had 20 notice of trustee sales, which was also down from last year.

Government intervention has slowed down foreclosures but failed to deal with negative equity.  "Passing laws to essentially eliminate foreclosures, as they appear to have accomplished in Nevada, and are now contemplating with similar draconian measures in California, is likely to do more harm then good. The pendulum of regulation is once again swinging too far." - Sean O'Toole - ForeclosureRadar.com.

NEWPORT BEACH REAL ESTATE

Notice of Default filings are the first step in the California foreclosure process.  Notice of Trustee Sale filings set the date and time of an auction, and serve as the homeowner's final notice before sale.

Newport Beach foreclosure inventories

 
Newport Beach now has 156 properties scheduled for trustee auction sales after foreclosure.  If you want to see list of this information, contact us by email - ExploreProperties@gmail.com - and provide your name, email address, and what information you want.
