Foreclosure Investing – Earn While You Are Legally Right

The two terms foreclosure investing, were not typically considered as one when foreclosures were introduced as concept. Foreclosures have swiftly covered the lane from the starting point where foreclosures were a tool to cover up your stakes while you lend money to the debtors to the present destination where they are treated as lucrative investment options and in the same line considered means to earn some more money. Fair enough, you are in the business to make money, it’s no charity. Every other possible means to earn therefore ought to be considered, because if you sleep over it your competitors will make the buck. 

However what has been and continues to be wrongly ignored in the entire bargain are the legal requirements for foreclosure investing. But than who has always been able to drive within the speed limits? It is simply too boring. I understand that and appreciate the fact that every business move requires an amount of risk, however no smart businessperson would ever take a turn that is definite of a steep fall (not at least knowingly). And this is exactly where you need to be doubly conscious while trying a smart move in the field of foreclosure investing. One ignorant decision could bring you under the scrutiny and many of them tied together owing to you smartness or negligence might end up in serious implications, which am sure you would not be delighted to confront. So while trying to implement an easy to earn option in foreclosure investing, precede it with diligent understanding of the associated legal implications. Don’t let you moves translate to simple malpractices open to punishments of all kinds. 

A crude witness of the malpractice in the real estate world is the increasing popularity of deploying various tools like sales, paying for mortgage, and lease back transactions as a part of foreclosures in a way that the creditor drafts a tempting agreement and ends up owning the property in the end. I know that some of you are already tempted to know if am about to disclose another shortcut to easy money but believe me my friend that it is not always profitable to make faster cash.

Well before you are tired of waiting let me tell you the easy trick for foreclosure investing. All you need to do is make an agreement wherein to pay back all the previous loans for a debtor and in return take the title of the property, of course at a condition to lease it back to the earlier owner for a specified period of time. Not to mention that the debtor has an option to buy back the property during this stated time frame at the decided market share. So what’s the harm in this aspect of foreclosure investing? I mean the debtor is no longer a debtor and has all that is required in the world to buy back his property.

The Other Side Of Foreclosure Investing 

Now as an investor when you’ve completely argued that foreclosure investing is fair than for a moment think like you were on the other side of the table. Let’s assume that you have to pay back a small sum i.e. a (obviously too big an amount for you to repay) so you end up getting into the said deal, because the amount is too small and you are sure that you can pay back. The stakes – your property worth some where around 50 x a. now you are no longer the proud owner but a tenant in you own belongings for a specified time frame. The granted time lapses and you are suddenly confronted with the hard realization that you’ve not been able to generate the desired amount. End result, you are no longer entitled to any amount and you’ve comfortably lost your worthy possessions for an extremely small amount. But you still have your chances and even if you had opted for this deal of foreclosure inviting, you would have lost your home to foreclosure in any case. 

Foreclosure Investing-The Legal Side

Somehow the laws always favor the other side in foreclosure investing. And as a foreclosure investor this is exactly what you’ll feel when I’ll inform you that in this mentioned situation, the legal rights are all with the actual owner and the bet you’ve lost the amount given as a debt, the amount spent during case proceedings and of course the property. So who is to be blamed, I mean you are obviously can argue that you are innocent. The agreement said it all. It is the debtor’s ignorance and the optimistic attitude that eventually help you earn. But it is all futile because nobody is interested. Rather the impact could be minor civil charges if you are a first timer followed by rather severe criminal charges if you are repeated offender.

So my advice to you is that while thinking about easy ways to make money in the business of foreclosure investing, think hard and avoid the legal net. Like in this case you could simply strike a partnership deal with the owner and have a reasonable stake in the property. Not very difficult indeed!
