Best Prices Per Square Foot in Beverly
Now is a great time for prospectors and first-time buyers to look at properties that represent a more modest investment per square foot. These are also worth looking at before you pay just as much for a house that doesn’t fit you.
The first one is a “short sale subject to third party approval.” That third party may be a bank, and if it is, get ready for some fun. The first time we offered on a house, the “third party” wouldn’t say yes to the sale and left us in limbo for a month. When we walked away, the bank foreclosed, and ended up auctioning the house for $40,000 less than we offered.
I wouldn’t call those folks the brightest spoons in the drawer. They have their reasons (which mostly have to do with punishing people for falling on hard times, regardless of the damage they do to their own businesses), but bring a lot of patience and flexibility to the table if you decide to deal with banks. Banks aren’t supposed to be in the real estate business, after all….
