This morning I answered a question on a popular real estate site about how a Livonia MI home could sell so cheaply ($90K) in an area of expensive homes without being listed for sale.

Are you a first time homebuyer? Have you ever done any repairs on a home? Are you handy? How much extra money will you have after the closing?
Those questions should determine what time of home you should buy. If you have no skills and little money you should not be looking at those bargain basement Metro Detroit foreclosures that need a ton of work. If those Metro Detroit foreclosures need all new carpeting, major drywall work, a kitchen redone, new windows, or a new roof you should be crossing those homes off your list.
You should be concentrating on homes that are more move in ready. Homes that you can move into and you can live in. Yes there may be Metro Detroit foreclosures that need very little work and still be a bargain.
Yes there may be even bargains in homes that are move in ready that are not foreclosures. Compare the house to recent sold homes. That is what your real estate agent should be doing for you.
So if you are looking for Novi foreclosures, Livonia foreclosures or any foreclosures in Wayne County, Oakland County, or Livingston county give me a call on my cell (313)310-9855
