Short Sale Search for Atlanta Homes - It's Here!

Posted by Ryan Ward: CEO of Premier Atlanta Real Estate - Keller Williams on Thursday, January 15th, 2009 at 8:31pm.

Short Sale SearchYou want it, you've got it. This will be a short post to coincide with the announcement of the additional short sale search feature we have just implemented on our website. Short sales are not exactly an option for us as agents to enter into the MLS so providing a search that pulls short sales listed for sale is not something that you can find in many places - if at all and I'm not giving away the technology!

Search Atlanta short sales.

This is an addition to one of the only real foreclosure searches available to consumers. If this is your first visit to our website, welcome! We are glad you are here. Pay attention to the image posted just below. You will really want to make sure you save one of these searches so that you will be first in line when they are listed. We will email them to you automatically. It is the advantage you need.

A Quick Story

I have this search set up for a client. Yesterday they received an email about a new listing. By the time one of our agents got them to the house in the evening, they were third in line to show it on the first full day of being listed and there is no telling how many others saw it before she got there. If you think this is a "buyers" market for this type of property, you are sadly mistaken. These properties may be hotter than the finest of listings in the highest of our most recent sellers market. Don't be mistaken and don't waste your time if you aren't ready to pull the trigger and don't waste your time getting there. You need to act quickly.

We can guide you through the process and help you negotiate for things that you might not thing are options on these types of properties which are offered "as is". There are options, but, you must be ready to act. That means your finances are already in order and you are ready to go with a prequalification letter and an earnest money check. There are extreme deals, but, they are few and far between and there is a great deal of competition for them. You aren't the only one looking or buying right now. These are the most searched, most shown and most purchased types of homes available (along with foreclosures).

Call us if you have any questions and enjoy one of the very most unique and useful tools to come online to Atlanta real estate consumers and keep the suggestions coming. We're listening.

Always thinking outside the box good for you Ryan.
BTW.. in our MLS the short sale/foreclosures all fall under 1 code and is only one way to search for both of them, I like that fact that you have the option to search either or.

I'm wondering how you are able to search for short sales if its not available on your MLS? Hmmm.... At any rate, this is a valuable tool to buyers. You're definitly one step ahead of the competition. I recently added a foreclosure search page to my site, and that's where the majority of the leads come from. We have the ability to search for Foreclosures and/or Short Sales.

I agree that short sales (and also foreclosures) are not really a buyer's market. I had to write over the asking price recently when I found out I was in competition with six other offers! Fortunately we didn't have to go too, too high and we did get the A/O. I may have to add a short sale and foreclosure search to my site! We don't have that many in Madison WI but it seems to be of great interest to our buyers out there.
