IN THE KNOW - WHEN BUYING BANK OWNED OR FORECLOSURE PROPERTIES
A common question among Buyers in this Real Estate Market when purchasing Bank Owned or Foreclosure Properties is; “Why is a Special Warranty Deed and not a General Warranty Deed given on this property”?
Special Warranty Deed versus General Warranty Deed - 
Here is a great explanation given in simple terms by a Title Officer at Stewart Title.
“Special Warranty Deeds are becoming more common. A General Warranty deed is a promise to the Buyer that the Seller will warranty any prior problems with Title, not just during the Seller’s ownership, but back along the chain of ownership.
A Special Warranty deed, on the other hand, limits the Seller’s promise (warranty) to title problems that come up while the Seller owned the property, but gives no warranty for problems prior to that point. For example, Builders often give Special Warranty deeds. They only owned the property long enough to build the homes. They aren’t sticking their necks out to warranty buyers against something that happened to cloud title when the subdivision was still a pig farm.
Foreclosure property is another example where you often see Special Warranty deeds. The Bank, like the Builder, has no close relationship to the property and won’t bend over backwards to promise anything about the condition of title before they acquired the property through foreclosure.”
Jayne Boyle of Stewart Title explains, “These days, Title Insurance is the Buyer’s best friend. Title Insurance insures the Buyer against past ownership problems, old liens, boundary issues, etc.”

Our Float Down the Wenatchee River
My Real Estate World has been a busy one this Summer! The down side of that is Tomi and I have had very little time to play this summer and school is about to start! So yesterday we snuck out of town for the day and went to Leavenworth just on the East side of the Cascade Mountains and took a tube ride down the Wenatchee River.
Leavenworth is a cute little Bavarian themed town nestled in mountain range and sits on the edge of the Wenatchee River. What a great time we had! We rented our tubes through an outfit called "Lets Go Tubing"

Currently I am very busy in the pre-foreclosure and short sale market. Years ago a woman approached me with a "situation" she was in. She needed to sell her home but owed more on it than she thought she could sell it for. That turned out to be my first "short sale" client. Today, many people are in this "situation". I have years of experience in short sales today and have helped many people through this process. We have systems in place and have even helped many other agents that are not familiar with the process walk their buyer clients through the short sale. With an experienced team of lenders, escrow, title and inspectors working with us our short sale clients are much more comfortable with the sale of their home.
We love our first time home buyer clients with all of their excitement in purchasing their first home. With lots of questions and uncertainty our clients feel confident at the closing of their purchase!
Investor friendly. Keeping up on the market for our Investor clients is important to us. Buying investment properties can be just as exciting for us as it is for our Investors. Since we are so heavy into the pre foreclosure and short sale market we find many deals before they even hit the market!
Senior Services. Our senior clients enjoy our committment to their down sizing needs.
Professional Service for all of our Clients is high priority. Listening to your wants and needs and helping you acquire your goals is winning the day.

After seeing Debbie's internet presence I contacted her about finding my new home. I told her exactly what I was looking for and to my surprise she contacted me the very next day with a potential new home for me. When we arrived at the home I fell in love with it immediately. I couldn't believe she was able to find my home so quickly. - Hal
I wanted to move to the Everett area to be closer to my children. I was living in Pierce county in a 55 and over community. The Senior Community living was very important to me. Debbie was able to find that for me and negotiated an excellent offer. She was able to refer me to a very capable agent in Pierce county to take care of the sale of my property. She was also able to refer me to a property management company for my rental properties when one suddenly came up vacant. Thank you Debbie! - LM
My husband and I weren't sure where to turn. My daughter was 5 months old when my husband was injured and required shoulder surgery. Once his surgery was done we realized that he wasn't going to be able to continue in the same line of work. After a few months of looking for work he found employment but at a much lower pay scale. Our bills had piled up with the surgery and we just couldn't keep up with the mortgage payments any longer. We were referred to Debbie Atwood and Debbie listed our home and sold it. We were able to ask our bank for a short sale and they accepted the offer. We are very grateful for all the help Debbie gave us. I don't know what we would have done without her. She answered all of questions and gave us excellent service. - Cari
