1 in 5 mortgages are seriously underwater

How to Sell Your House with No EquityEach month, I talk with multiple home sellers that have found it difficult to sell their house in the current market.

Some areas of the country are experiencing a return to normal levels of inventory.  But in Richmond Virginia where I am based, sellers encounter some of the following situations (From the Times Dispatch, Sept 5, 20130)

  • Headline: 1 in 5 mortgages are seriously underwater (Times Dispatch, Sept 5, 2013)
  • 19 percent of residential homeowners with mortgages in the Richmond area owe 25 percent or more on their mortgages than their houses are worth.
  • 23 percent of homeowners with mortgages, are on track to resurface with enough equity to be able sell their houses in the next 15 months
  • In the Richmond area, 13 percent of all homeowners with mortgages have at least 50% equity.

Those statistics suggest that nearly 40% of Richmond area homeowners are unable to sell their house via traditional means.

As a creative real estate investor, I can help you figure out how to potentially sell your home, if you are one of those sellers who has little equity.

How you can sell your house with no equity

I might be able to place a future homeowner with slightly damaged credit into your house today who should be able to get a mortgage within 12-18 months.

You will have someone paying you a monthly lease payment so that you do not have find the money to cover your mortgage on an empty house.

You will have a future homeowner caring for your property so that you don’t have to fix the leaky toilet.

You will have all the benefits of taking your mortgage interest deductions and real estate tax deductions.

Of course, that is the perfect scenario.

The risks?

There are a few risks that you must know about in this scenario:

  • Your house may not appraise for the price you have agreed to sell at.
  • Your tenant buyer may not qualify for a mortgage in time.
  • Your tenant buyer may get a job transfer and need to move to another city.
  • You may not get your lease payment.

Those risks are real when it comes to leasing a house with the option to buy.  But it is a risk that you might get comfortable with.

How can I help?

If I can help you in this scenario, simply pick up the phone and give me a call.  I try to answer my own phone, at 804-719-1489.

I’ll tell you if I can help you or not.

The initial consultation on how to sell your house with little to no equity is free and you might learn a thing or two.

Other options for Zero Equity or Underwater Homes

If you are truly upside down in your mortgage, a short sale may be the only way to go.

Other investors may do an option for a 10 year period, but I will not.  It is not always a good solution to bank on a future escalation of market prices.  I can help you with your short sale.

Is Richmond becoming a sellers market?

From an April 13 2013 article in the Richmond Times Dispatch:

Home sales and prices rose in central Virginia and across the state in the first three months of the year, according to reports released Tuesday by the Richmond Association of Realtors and the Virginia Association of Realtors. The positive report comes at the start of the spring buying market, and the outlook for the rest of the year looks promising, with local, state and national housing markets showing evidence of a sustained recovery, according to the reports. “Without question, the housing market is improving,” said Bill White, president of Joyner Fine Properties in Richmond. “We are keeping our fingers crossed and hoping it is sustainable.”

This is good news for home sellers. The article goes on to say:

“In some areas, we have an inventory problem,” White said about the Richmond area, noting a shortage of houses on the market to meet demand. “We’re beginning to see a few multiple offers, and some houses are selling in the first couple of days on the market.” Sales in central Virginia have risen year over year for seven consecutive quarters.

If you are thinking about selling your house this spring, you might be able to get top dollar for it if you fix it up and make it shine among the competing houses for sale.

What if your house is out of date?

The other day, a house seller called me. Their kitchen is 20 years out of date. The last paint work in the house was 10 years ago. Their flooring was worn

  • Scratches in the hardwood
  • Ripped vinyl
  • Cracked tiles

Windows has broken seals, causing moisture to get in there. The outside needed landscaping to re-reveal the house to the street. If your house is ugly, you could easily spend 20 thousand making these basic repairs to bring it up to full market value. But, if you don’t want to mess with that kind of renovation work, I’ll buy your house as is for cash at a price that considers the renovations that are needed.
