Bank Owned Foreclosures in Miami Present Good Investing Opportunities
During the days when the mortgage crisis has yet to affect the United States, Miami in Florida is one of the best places in which to buy property. Miami is a popular tourist destination, a status it owes to the fact that the climate in Florida is very mild and the place is in close proximity to the beach. Many college students go there for the spring break and many winter tourists weather out the cold in their hometowns by flying to Miami. There are also many seniors who choose to spend their retirement in Miami.
Thus, in those days before the mortgage crisis, there used to be a lot of people seeking properties to buy or rent in Miami, making Miami a great place to be in the real estate business. Lately, however, Miami is losing its shine as a haven for realtors. Not that it is Miami’s fault anyhow, because just like any other state in the United States, Miami is largely hit by the mortgage crisis. Residential owners and vacation home owners are seeing their properties fall to Miami bank foreclosures. Homes for rent to tourists are becoming bank owned foreclosures. All in all, Miami has a total of 33,000 homes to date that are now bank owned foreclosures.
Not everything is dismal in the real estate sector in Miami, though. With the number of homes going into Miami bank foreclosures, it could mean that it is cheap to buy a home in Miami these days, whether for use as a residence or as a vacation home or something to lease out to tourists who still flock to Miami to enjoy the beaches and the mild Florida weather. A shrewd investor can make some profit in buying and selling Miami bank foreclosures, or in leasing them out to tourists during the holiday season.
If you are interested in purchasing Miami bank foreclosures, the first two things that you should do are to update your credit record and to raise enough money to invest on bank owned foreclosures. Having a clear credit record and enough money to play with in sales or auctions of Miami bank foreclosures will make the process easier for you. At the very least, you would have less paperwork to do when you buy the property or win it in a sale. You would also not have any problems with paying the owner of the property before the day ends on the auction, given that it is usually required for winning bidders to pay up before the business day ends.
Before you shell out your cash on a bank owned foreclosure, however, you should make sure that you have spent time inspecting the property you have your eye on. If the owner of the property allows it, you should personally make an ocular inspection of the property and bring along a professional property inspector with you. If it is not possible for you to look at the property from the inside, drive by the property and look at it from the outside. In this way, you would be able to assess if you would need to allot extra money for repairs and if the discount you may get from buying the bank owned foreclosure property makes up for the cost of the repair work.

Miami, FL (PRWEB) July 13, 2010
A federal lawsuit filed by a private lender in West Palm Beach, Florida alleges that a wealthy Florida businessman defaulted on loans well in excess of one million dollars. According to the suit filed by Miami-based Cueto Law Group, the loans were extended to help finance a large hotel development complex.
According to the lawsuit documents (U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida, case No. Civ 10: 80725): the lender filed suit against Florida businessman Atul Bisaria and his wife, Mihu Bisaria, who both signed promissory notes securing a series of loans. It was understood that the funds were to be used to finance the million renovation of the Hilton Pittsburgh hotel, the largest hotel in the city. The hotel was purchased by Bisaria’s Shubh Hotels LLC in 2006. Amidst mounting financial trouble, Bisaria recently sold a large portion of the hotel development project to a group of investors including Miami developer Jorge Perez, Related Companies president Stephen Ross and philanthropist Dr. Kiran Patel. Ross is better known as the owner of the Miami Dolphins football team.
Bisaria is principal of Shubh Pittsburgh Hotel Investments, LLC and Shubh Hotels LLC. — owner of the Cornhusker Marriott in Lincoln, Nebraska and Guess Suites hotel in Boca Raton, Florida. He was better known in recent years for his purchase of the master franchise rights to the Planet Hollywood brand in India. The second Planet Hollywood Hotel and Resort in the world is slated to open in India in 2012. The first was opened in Las Vegas in 2007.
According to Miami attorney Santiago A. Cueto, who represents the Plaintiff, “repeated demands for payment have been made on Mr. Bisaria and his wife, but they have refused to pay. Unfortunately, they took advantage of my client’s generosity to finance a lavish lifestyle instead of using the loans for the intended purpose.”
The lawsuit is pending in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida, case No. Civ 10: 80725.

Miami Beach, FL (PRWEB) July 14, 2010
Short Sale Real Estate Attorney in Miami, Florida, Christian N. Folland, Esq, offers specialized legal and closing services for domestic and international buyers interested purchasing luxury South Beach waterfront condominiums and homes at deep discounts though short sale or lender-owned REO transactions.
Christian N. Folland, Esq., is the owner of the South Florida law firm, Folland & Associates, LC and the Miami title company, South Pointe Title Company. Folland is a Florida Bar Certified real estate attorney, which is the highest level of expertise recognized by the Florida Bar. Also a real estate broker and owner of Real Estate Miami, Folland is very familiar with the Miami and South Beach real estate markets and keeps an updated list of available pre- and post-foreclosed or otherwise discounted properties.
“We have seen a lot of national and international interest in Miami and Miami Beach properties, particularly luxury South Beach condominiums, from buyers and investment groups in Canada, United Kingdom, Europe, Russia and even India,” said Folland, who pointed out that all the negative real estate news headlines spark interest from buyers and investors looking to purchase properties for less than the the actual value. Combined with the currently weak US dollar, buying financially distressed pre-foreclosure properties through short sale negotiation or lender-owned properties adds up to a good investment opportunity for foreign cash buyers.
“Now is the time to buy real estate in Miami Beach,” stated Folland, as all the reports show that the prices for Miami Beach real estate will not be going down. Good properties have been proven to sell almost immediately, whether through short sale or REO, and often receive multiple offers the first day of the listing. Folland also noted that many Miami Beach Realtors have standing orders for good properties in the best condominium buildings, and as a result, other buyers who do not look at the new listings every day will not even get a chance to put in an offer before the units go into contract.
The definition of short sale or short payoff is when a mortgage lender agrees to accept less than the outstanding loan amount to satisfy the seller’s loan. Mortgage short sales have become a common method to assist owners in selling real estate which is appraising much lower than when they purchased the property. Most lenders will accept a deeply discounted loan payoff based on the fair market value of the property, rather than pay attorney fees and wait for the foreclosure process to be completed. Lender-owned properties are those retained by the lender after a foreclosure sale.
“Considering the real estate mortgage market, short sales are the best solution for sellers in distress, lenders with non-performing loans, and savvy buyers, particularly foreign cash buyers taking advantage of the weak US dollar,” says Folland, who coordinates with buyers, sellers, and lenders to negotiate short sale closings. “Cash buyers have a definite advantage, as some properties need to be sold before a foreclosure sale occurs.”
Every situation is different, noted Folland, and each lender has specific requirements for borrowers to qualify for a short sale or short payoff. Sellers typically must demonstrate financial distress warranting the short sale of a home, and are not allowed to receive any equity out of the property at sale. “The approval process is becoming very streamlined on the lenders’ end, meaning quicker approvals.”
The staff at South Pointe Title Company are experts on short sales and the requirements to qualify, as well as the short sale listing and approval process. Our Florida title company will assist sellers in completing their short sale applications, document submissions, and draft their Florida sales contracts, which are contingent on the acceptance of the short sale, as well as help them market their property. Our Miami real estate attorney provides consultations on foreclosure avoidance and short sale potential. Our real estate attorney and title company staff will work with lenders to provide the valuation documentation required in the lender’s mortgage short sale application.
Christian N. Folland, Esq. and the staff at South Pointe Title Company provide legal, closing, and Realty consultations and will work with clients to find an appropriate property and guide them through their real estate transactions.

Miami real estate investing is not very hard to learn, even though that there are many facets that are essential to understand before attempting to start investing. While many books and seminars are offered on investing only a few deliver the desired results. Investing is not taught in any university and it is more of an art than an exact science. It requires a lot of perseverance and determination. Many investors learn by trial and error although a mistake could be very expensive and usually devastating. Numerous millionaires made their money through real estate investments. Information, education and research are major considerations for an investor to be successful.
Real estate investing in Miami, Florida is a full time business where investors are constantly trying to maximize their profits and minimize their risks in other to generate wealth over time. Investing is a verified long term wealth creator. It is a numbers game and many of the transactions will not work but it is all worth it when one deal goes through and all your hard work is rewarded. It takes a lot of time and effort to effectively dominate the art of real estate investing. It is a risky business but it is the best way to create lasting financial security. Investing in Miami real estate is an excellent way to make a positive monthly income and built long term wealth and obtain financial independence.
Investors in Miami real estate have recently taken a beating and many have seen their investment properties lose value. An investor should not panic and sell in this market to avoid huge loses. Since it is a long term business an investor should realize that the time is now to rent the property and hold until the market turns around. If an investor requires a predictable and safe return on investment then investing in Miami real estate is not the answer. The business of real estate investing is very risky, and unpredictable but well worth the effort. An investor should consider buying foreclosures and bank owned properties. The Miami real estate market has hit bottom and it should be bouncing back very soon.
Miami real estate investing is different than various types of investing. An investor must overcome many roadblocks and obstacles. Usually finding financing is the single most overwhelming challenge an investor will face when trying to purchase Miami real estate. Using leverage in the business is common so arranging financing is very important. Do not purchase investment property with no money down. Little or no money down has caused many properties to go into foreclosure recently. Investing is not as perplexing, time consuming and financially draining as one might imagine.
Bank owned properties or Reo’s and Short Sales are a good way to start to look for a good deal in Miami real estate to purchase. The list of bank real estate owned (Reo) properties is huge. Not all banks want to discount properties so finding a good property to buy takes a lot of work and patience. Short Sales are the new trend in speculating in Miami real estate. Banks are not very eager to short sale their inventory and it takes usually about two months for the bank to accept or reject the offer. Government foreclosures are another to avenue to search. These properties include HUD, Housing and Urban Development, VA, Veteran Administration, FNMA and Freddie Mac. HUD homes are very popular and usually they will sell to the higher bidder in a weekly online auction. Investors are allowed to bid when the property does not sell to owner occupants. These HUD-FHA foreclosures properties are offer an excellent value. Foreclosures remain the best way for investors to start in the Miami real estate investing business since most of them have instant equity.
The best way to start investing in Miami real estate is buying foreclosures. The tremendous amount of foreclosures now in the Miami real estate market overwhelmingly gives the investor a lot of inventory to choose from in order to purchase the right property at a discounted price. This opportunity will more than likely never be available again and investors should take full advantage. An experienced Miami real estate agent who specializes in foreclosures is essential in order to guide the investor. The agent must have access to current bank owned REOs, foreclosures, short sale properties, pre-foreclosures government foreclosures and other distress listings. Investing in Miami real estate is a very exciting and rewarding business.

Question by jd_max: How can I hedge my investment in a Miami condo?
I bought a condo in Aventura, FL last July, and now I am worried about falling values. Are there any SPECIFIC investment methods to hedge my real estate. Please no general answers – I’ve already searched “hedge funds” and can’t find anything specific. Thanks.
Best answer:
Answer by dredude52 No, a hedge fund is hedging their own investment.
I’m not that familiar with real estate, but I can give you a few ideas to investigate.
You’re trying to find an investment vehicle that closely correlates to real estate, like REIT’s. I’m not sure if you can trade options on these or not. If they appreciate evenly with real estate values, then the idea would be to sell them short, or alternatively, but a Put Option, if available.
You could probably sell short or buy puts on Fannie Mae and/or Freddie Mac. They own most of the mortgages in this country, and are going through an accounting scandal right now. Funny, nobody went to jail, but those cooked books may bring both companies to their knees later in the summer, and this may be a good short play anyway, regardless if real estate goes down. If real estate does go down, you get a double whammy (reward) on your Puts or short position. You could make more money on your hedge than you would on your real estate investment. Just try to close this position before they go bankrupt, or before the gov’t bails them out.

No, a hedge fund is hedging their own investment.
I’m not that familiar with real estate, but I can give you a few ideas to investigate.
You’re trying to find an investment vehicle that closely correlates to real estate, like REIT’s. I’m not sure if you can trade options on these or not. If they appreciate evenly with real estate values, then the idea would be to sell them short, or alternatively, but a Put Option, if available.
You could probably sell short or buy puts on Fannie Mae and/or Freddie Mac. They own most of the mortgages in this country, and are going through an accounting scandal right now. Funny, nobody went to jail, but those cooked books may bring both companies to their knees later in the summer, and this may be a good short play anyway, regardless if real estate goes down.
