Joe Kendall Realtor with Sandals Realty a Waterfront and Foreclosure Specialist writes, I have  discussed over the last 12 months a lot of information regarding foreclosures and bank short sales.I have provided information and the process on helping home owners what direction to take in working with banks and mortgage companies to avoid foreclosure proceedings. I have talked about the process of buying bank owned property, the importance of home inspections and your approach on making offers on bank short sales.

Southwest Florida real estate market has seen better days that is for sure,we are in a area in 2003 through 2005 where one of the fast growing areas in all of the United States ! We have come from a huge building Boom to now a real estate bust ! As people where buying, building and refinancing at a unbelievable rate. Here is a recent live broadcast on NBC Today's Show about Lee County Florida as the "Hot Zone" in this Country of the mortgage melt down !    

 I remember going to get my taxes done this year and my tax accountant was asking me about the real estate market at the time he told me he was amazed how many people where treating "their home like a bank" and piling on refinancing and home lines of credit like there was no tomorrow ! it was not a matter of if ? But a matter of time when this was going to come to a screaming halt!

The good news is for home buyers that have come and visited southwest Florida over the past 10 years and could not afford to buy a home or condo in southwest Florida for one reason or another, Well affordability has returned and the variety, locations and your choices on construction is endless! If you are thinking about your future and thinking that sunny southwest Florida is for you?  Then now is the time to act! Get in on the Hot prices as soon the word well get out and everyone from around the country will be focused on southwest Florida and trust me the cycle will slowly start again.

Joe Kendall, Realtor with Sandals Realty a Waterfront and Foreclosure Specialist writes, I do a lot of marketing for helping people avoid foreclosure by offering to help them sell their home as a bank short sale. Doing so I am sure you can image, I get all kinds of phone calls everyday from people needing to discuss their situation regarding their home, asking ways to change or get out from their mortgage payment.

The current real estate market here in southwest Florida has seen records of foreclosures and we have lead the Country a couple months this year in foreclosures, as they are filed here in Lee County Florida.  I get a lot of questions and listen to statements from people owning homes here in southwest Florida. Here are a few examples of calls I received the last two days. 

(1) I have tried talking to my Lender, but they are saying there is nothing they will do, other then ask me when will I be making my next mortgage payment? Whats next for me?

(2) I have an adjustable rate mortgage and it went up to where I can no longer afford the payments? What can I do to get them to change it?

(3) I owe more then $150,000 more the what the house is worth. What can I do to get the mortage company to change it so I can afford to keep my home?    

(4) I want my mortgage company to give me loan modification and they told me know they can not do this? Why? 

 I listen to everyone concerns and questions, I always offer up different options or suggestions in talking to their accountant or a real estate attorney maybe even both before making a decision on letting your home go into foreclosure.I help people avoid foreclosure by helping them with a bank approved short sale. I can not speak for the mortgage companies, But I can offer suggestions on where to go from here in your current situation.

 Do you have a home here in southwest Florida and need to avoid foreclosure? Please give me a call, I am a good listener and I will try to help you if I can. You may be able to avoid Foreclosure and help you sell your home as a Short Sale. I do not charge anything for this service, the Bank will pay my commission or I don't get paid.  Now is the time to try! It's better to do it now then wait! Lets talk and let me help you spell out your options.

It's Not About Me, It's all About You!

Joe Kendall, Realtor with Sandals Realty, Waterfront and Foreclosure Specialist writes, Last weekend I was out showing Gulf Access Waterfront Pool Homes in Cape Coral Florida. Several of these homes are in the Pre-Foreclosure process with several listed from $225,000 to $275,000.  Some of these homes are direct sailboat access with a short distance to open water.  Now is the time to buy your vacation home while the inventory is still pretty good for Gulf Access Waterfront Property.

Bank Owned Property can also be searched from my web site www.joekendall.listingbook.com, 

   Joe Kendall, Realtor with Sandals Realty 239-560-0726 writes, I read alot about different real estate Companies here in southwest Florida, Cape Coral, Fort Myers, LeHigh  Acres, Sanibel Island all of Southwest Florida and how they advertise about how high they rank or how many homes they sold or how experienced they are in one subject or another. I guess every real estate company has their "Slogan" to what they hang their hat on. 

 I believe it is important to list and sell with a company that will put your interests as buyer or the seller first before anything else. It's all about you and your personal needs and desires. The other things you really could care less about ! Am I right? In my career, I have always worked toward the best interest of my client.

As the Realtor Recruiter for our Company, I take great pride in telling you we have so many experienced agents with years of experience, unbelievable skills and abilty it sometimes amazes me what we can offer our clients. We have over 98 Realtors working out of one office here in southwest Florida. They have relocated here over the years from just about every state in this country and some from outside the United States!

We can handle just about any lanquage spoken with experience in real estate transactions, mortgage and title work as well. We have experience in commercial, residential, office, farms, vacant land, bank owned, foreclosures, bank short sales, rentals, new construction, condo developments,  time shares, waterfront, gated communities  the list goes on and on! Just ask, I bet someone here has done it!

Our agents review our company inventory daily and aggressively market for buyers and sellers around the globe promoting the lifestyle here in southwest Florida, trying to match our company inventory to their clients. We also list all our listings in the multi listing service, our Broker is a member of 5 Real estate Boards in the State of Florida. We enter all our listings into all the major search engines and web page directories. Our office is also a member of Loopnet.net which is the largest National mls listing service in the United States.

 So when your ready to list or sell in southwest Florida? Please call us!  ! If your thinking about changing brokerage companies? Please give me a call and let me show you the Sandals Realty Difference! 

I personally believe Guerrilla Marketing you and your business is all about making a short and to the point statement, getting noticed, leaving a lasting impression. That's the Realtor with the big fish, maybe a dog on his truck ,car or van ? Remember the Super bowl half time ads the last few year's, they try and leave you with one lasting picture to remember?

 I recently received a question from a Realtor on activerain.com about my vehicle wrap? I guess she was in a GRI class and they where discussing vehicle wraps. I understand there was some discussions in regards to not to many Realtors have gone forward with having them done? I told her I knew of a few in my area of southwest Florida that have done them but mostly there name and brand. 
 
I was asked about my thoughts? 

I suggested that she think about what would make a lasting impression in her area?  I truly believe just your name and your brand will not leave a "lasting impression" other then that's the "Realtor" from from  ABC Realty ( I was going to use a name a national franchise,but I didn't want to offend anyone)  Think of it as a move-able Billboard.When I was a Realtor in Michigan I took about a billboard advertising and it cost me back them $1,200.00 per month ! I do not know what it is today, but I am still betting there are not very cost effective. But I would like to hear from other Realtors on this subject.
 
                        

If your thinking about a wrap for your car or truck?  Please remember it still may come down to what your broker and or your national franchise will allow. Give it some thought, get everyone in your family involved and have fun with it.

Best wishes to you and all your marketing efforts. Well atleast all the Realtors outside my working area!
