Bank Owned Properties
If you're searching for your first home and have a limited budget, or you're looking for a lucrative investment property, bank owned properties can be an option that's worth exploring. Boston City Properties has an extensive database of listings for foreclosed homes, properties that are bank-owned, and short sales throughout Princeton. One thing to keep in mind is that this type of sale differs from a conventional real estate deal. Once a property has been taken over by a mortgage company or bank, it's essential to work with a professional that has experience in bank owned home sales. There's significantly more work involved with this type of transaction but is worth it in the long run because you can save a lot of money.

The median home price in this community is $372,600 with an increase of 4.5 percent from the previous year. Home prices are expected to increase 3.5 percent within the coming year. The rate of foreclosure is 28.1 homes per 10,000 which is higher than the Metropolitan Worcester area of 8.3 and the national average which is 1.6. The rate of delinquent mortgages is 1.2 percent, lower than the national average. Home values peaked in 2007, but have fallen in many areas, so more homeowners owe more on their mortgage than what their home is worth. One of the best reasons to consider bank owned homes is that you can often purchase a beautiful home for up to 60 percent below current market value.
Short Sales
Homeowners agree to a short sale if they can no longer pay their mortgage, they have to relocate, or they've received an offer on their home, but it wasn't enough to cover the lien on the property. Buying a short sale home in this community is an excellent opportunity for a first-time buyer or investor. There are enough options in price, architectural style, and size to suit every preference. Many of the homes on the market are single-family with two or more bedrooms and two baths. Since a lot of the homes were constructed in 2000 or later, they're in move-in condition.
This type of real estate transaction is more complex than a conventional property sale, so it's recommended that you work with a professional with experience in real estate short sales. It can take a considerable amount of time to compile all the documentation and for negotiations between all the parties involved.
