Savannah GA area foreclosures

Have you been looking for a foreclosure in the Savannah, GA area? There are so many to pick from. Unfortunately, our area has been caught up with the rest of the country and the economy. With all the bad loans out there and with the prices of homes decreasing from the past few years, there are many foreclosure homes available. Just how do you find a foreclosure property that's available? The answer is simple, email me with your wants and needs and I can send you the available properties in our area. I scour the mls daily for the newest properties that come on the market. There are homes in all ranges. If you're looking to rehab properties to either resell or rent out, there are homes that can be found from the low 20's and then upward from there. If you want to take advantage of a newer home without paying the newer home price, there are many properties that are just a few years old that unfortunately homeowners had to give back to their mortgage companies. Historic and beach properties are available as well. One of my favorite foreclosures that's currently available is a home on the World Famous Victory Drive in Savannah. This property is an eight bedroom, four and one half bath home built in 1913 that has over 5000 square feet. This home was already updated and was previously listed for $750,000 and the bank has it currently listed for $475,000. This is in an area of million dolar homes and I see it as an incredible opportunity for the right person. What about a sixth floor condo that has three bedrooms, three baths, over 2000 square feet and has beautiful views from both ends of the unit. This property was bought a few years ago for over 600k and is now a repo for just $375,000. There are many more properties available. Let me know if I can help you in your search for that special deal! Email me at robinsellssavannah@gmail.com for more info or give me a call at 912-655-2554.

why do you need a Buyer's agent?




Are you looking to purchase a home in the Savannah, GA area? The first step in the process is to find one agent to work with. Yes, you can search on line for homes, you can drive around neighborhoods, you can look in the newspaper for homes, you can pick up a magazine anywhere, but who has access to all the properties out there? A realtor. The reason to choose only one agent is simple. You need someone who is going to be looking out for your interest only. When you are looking for a home, you need someone who'll be on your side. A realtor's job is not just to drive you around, they are there from beginning to end. They will find out your criteria in a home, they'll help you to obtain financing, they'll listen to your wants and needs, show you homes, provide you comps, write the contract, negotiate the deal, provide inspector information, go to inspections, work with your lender, and go to closing.


In Georgia, you'll need to sign a Buyer's Agency with an agent if you want to have that agent fulfill all of the above. A Buyer's agent will be there looking solely for your best interest. Their job is simply to work for you. Georgia has different forms of agency than some other areas of the country. A buyer can choose to represent their own interest even if they have an agent who shows them property and finds them a home. In this case, all the agent will be doing is facilitating the process. The agent will write your contract. The agent is then not legally bound to you and can not really look out totally for your interest. With a buyer's agency signed, the agent is bound to look out for your interest. The agent must exhaust all options in trying to find you the property you're seeking. They can also give you more information to help you make a good decision. The other point is that they can not disclose information about you to other agents unless you give your permission.


I have worked in California and in Indiana and in those states, an agent either represented the buyer or the seller. Years ago, all agents represented the seller. Things change, times change and each state has it's own rules and laws. If you're wanting to purchase a home in the Savannah, GA area I would be happy to be your Buyer's agent. I would love the opportunity to be the agent who makes your dreams of home ownership in our area come true! I can easily be reached at 912-655-2554.
