A foreclosure cleanout service is most definitely worthwhile for real estate professionals. Typically, banks want REO foreclosure properties ready to show in a short amount of time. Because most foreclosures require furniture, appliance, and junk haul away, this can have a significant impact on getting it into salable condition.
Let's face it, there's nothing more frustrating than showing a property which just isn't in showable condition.
When banks or other lenders offer mortgage loans, they see them as an investment, because they will earn money from the interest on the loan. If homeowners do not repay their mortgages, banks lose money. To salvage their investment, banks foreclose on homes with unpaid mortgages and sell the properties at foreclosure auctions. If a home doesn’t sell at auction, it becomes a real estate owned property, or REO property. --Realtor.com
Often times, the previous resident(s) leaves behind scattered personal possessions and a significant amount of junk. Just entering a foreclosed home can be a risk, because you never know what to expect. It’s not uncommon to find pest infestations, appliances ripped out, windows and screens broken and torn, carpet stained, water damage in the bathroom, and other nuisances.
The fact of the matter is, it takes a crew to do a foreclosure cleanout right. So, either bring in a few associates or have a professional team tackle it. When you add all the expenses up and factor-in the amount of time lost, it just doesn’t make financial sense. Here are some of the most compelling reasons Realtors need a foreclosure cleanout service:
