Before Moving To Lehi Utah

Moving to another city requires an intensive planning. This may start from listing all the things that you have to do and their time frame. In doing so, you will be assured that you will carry out things on time and nothing is missed out. Make a list and cross each item out one at a time. Basically, get really organized.

Seek Help from Realtors in Lehi Utah

Moving to Lehi, Utah can be a big task and it would be wise if you seek help on matters that pose problems as you execute your plan. One of the best ways to do this is to seek a Lehi Utah Realtor who could give you facts about the different neighborhoods and schools within the city. There are many Realtors around Lehi but you have to look for someone who is trusted in the area.

What is a Lehi Bank Repos?

The bank now owns the property and the mortgage loan no longer exists. The bank will handle the eviction, if necessary, and may do some repairs. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac will often repaint and recarpet homes in Lehi prior to selling them. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac would just put the homes on the market and sell them as-is. However, it seems they realize they can get more money by making the home look cleaner and doing some repairs.

A bank will negotiate with the IRS for removal of tax liens and pay off any homeowner’s association dues. As a purchaser of an REO property, the buyer will receive a title insurance policy and the opportunity to investigate the property. A Lehi Utah bank foreclosure will be sold with a clean title.

A bank owned property might not be a great bargain. Do your homework before making an offer. Have one of the Realtors with Team Teasdale Realty do a comparative market analysis. They will help you determine if the Lehi home is a good deal or not.

Make sure that the price you pay is comparable to other Lehi homes in the neighborhood. Consider the costs of renovation, including time to complete them. Don’t get caught up in a ‘bidding war’ and pay over market value. It’s an old myth that “foreclosures” are a bargain. You can get a good deal but it takes knowledge and experience to make this happen. Be sure to hire Team Teasdale Realty to represent you when you are ready to buy a Lehi Utah bank foreclosure.

Bank Foreclosures Homes Continue to Rise in Lehi, Utah

Lehi Utah had 785 homes SOLD in 2011. These homes consisted of Bank Foreclosures, Short Sales, HUD Homes, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac Homes. The 785 homes included the typical residential seller in Lehi that was not experiencing a distressed situation. Approximately, 25% of the homes sold in Lehi were short sales in 2011.

I have crunched some numbers to see how the foreclosures in Utah County compare to one another. The most stable city is Orem and the least stable is Springville. Lehi is relatively stable compared to the other cities in Utah County. Saratoga Springs and Eagle Mountain had a higher percentage of bank foreclosures.

21% of the homes sold in Orem, Utah in 2011 were bank foreclosures.
22% of the homes sold in Provo, Utah in 2011 were bank foreclosures.
23% of the homes sold in Mapleton, Utah in 2011 were bank foreclosures.
24% of the homes sold in Spanish Fork, Utah in 2011 were bank foreclosures.
28% of the homes sold in Springville, Utah in 2011 were bank foreclosures.

It is hard to imagine that half of the homes sold in Lehi, Utah were either bank foreclosures and short sales. The amount of bank foreclosures and shorts sales will continue into 2012. In speaking with many of the Realtors that represent the banks in Utah County they have made it clear the inventory will continue. If the supply of bank foreclosures and short sales continue into 2012 then may experience a continued price decline into 2012. I think the prices will either stabilize or go down around 2% in Lehi in 2012. Prices will certainly not go up. The bubble has burst!

Many Realtors in the market feel 2011 was a good year. I think 2012 will result in more homes sold in Lehi but the Lehi Bank Foreclosure market should decrease.
