WHAT IS ‘FORECLOSURE?’
Foreclosure Overview
What is ‘Foreclosure?’•Foreclosure is a process that allows a lender to recover the amount owed on a defaulted loan by selling or taking ownership (repossession) of the property securing the loan.
When does foreclosure begin?•The foreclosure process begins when a borrower/owner defaults on loan payments (usually mortgage payments) and the lender files a public default notice, called a Notice of Default or Lis Pendens.

MOTIVE: WHY BUY A FORECLOSURE?
REASON 1: AVAILABILITY
9
Nearly 1.5 million U.S. properties in some stage of foreclosure
REO inventory represents 16-
month supply at current REO sales
pace
AND MORE COMING
10
3.2 million U.S. delinquent mortgages
EVEN MORE POTENTIAL DISTRESS

12.5 million mortgages seriously underwater
DON’T MISS OUT

23 percent of all residential sales in the second quarter were
properties in foreclosure or bank
owned
MORE DISTRESSED SALES

Short sales that closed before a property started the
foreclosure process increased 18 percent from 2011 to 2012
BIGGER INCREASES IN SOME STATES

REASON 2: POTENTIAL SAVINGS/PROFIT
©RealtyTrac Inc. 2011, Not for Distribution 15
Average price of these foreclosure-related sales subtracted from average
price of non-foreclosure sales.
DISCOUNTS VARY BY MARKET

BUT PRICES RISING – A GOOD THING
©RealtyTrac Inc. 2012, Not for Distribution 17
REASON 3: LESS COMPETITION
• Only about 20 percent of properties in the foreclosure process are already listed for sale
• Only about 15 percent of bank-owned properties are listed for sale
• The foreclosure auction is not for many buyers (more about that later)
• Condition of some foreclosures turns off many buyers

THE 3 FORECLOSURE-BUYING OPPORTUNITIES
THE 3 STAGES OF FORECLOSURE
©RealtyTrac Inc. 2011, Not for Distribution 20
PRE-FORECLOSURE
• Contact the owner to make offer
• Purchase from “distressed” homeowner
• Often short sales (but not always)
• Average discounts of 26 percent in second quarter
• More than 600,000 on RealtyTrac
©RealtyTrac Inc. 2012, Not for Distribution 21
SAMPLE PRE-FORECLOSURE HOME
©RealtyTrac Inc. 2012, Not for Distribution 22
List price is above estimated value, but
the property has been in foreclosure for 323 days so the owner and
lender may be willing to deal.
The loan history shows three outstanding loans on the property, which may make a short sale
more difficult.
FORECLOSURE AUCTION• Purchase at public auction
• Contact trustee to verify auction dates
• Often requires full payment in cash
• High risk, high reward
• More than 300,000 on RealtyTrac
©RealtyTrac Inc. 2012, Not for Distribution 23
SAMPLE AUCTION HOME
©RealtyTrac Inc. 2012, Not for Distribution 24
List price is $10,000 below estimated market value, but
auction date is not until Oct. 10
BANK OWNED• Work with listing agent if listed
• Contact bank to make offer
• Be persistent if not listed
• Submit offers online
• Average discount of 37% in second quarter
• More than 500,000 on RealtyTrac
©RealtyTrac Inc. 2012, Not for Distribution 25
SAMPLE BANK-OWNED HOME
©RealtyTrac Inc. 2012, Not for Distribution 26

and the property has been bank owned for
105 days

22 straight months of year-over-year
declines starting in November 2010

AND A RECENT JUMP IN STARTS
©RealtyTrac Inc. 2012, Not for Distribution 32
6 Percent Increase in Q2 2012 first annual
increase since the fourth quarter of
2009
STATES WITH BIG INCREASES
©RealtyTrac Inc. 2012, Not for Distribution 33
IMPLICATIONS
• Fewer opportunities to buy bank-owned in the short term except in some select states
• But increase in foreclosure starts mean more short sales in the next six to 12 months and more REOs in next 12 to 18 months
34

35

second quarter of 2012

40
FORECLOSURE MARKET OUTLOOK• Foreclosure activity in late 2012 and into 2013
will continue to increase off artificially low levels of 2011 and early 2012 – but not in every market.
• Foreclosure activity will not return to the peak of 2010 (depending on market), and foreclosure activity will resume its downward trend in 2013.
• Biggest increases will come in states with the biggest backlogs created in 2011: Florida, Maryland, Massachusetts and eventually even New Jersey and New York
41
PRICES AND PRICING SETTING STAGE
42
• Average price of foreclosures up in some areas, in part because of artificially limited supply• Detroit foreclosure sales prices up 18 percent• Miami foreclosure sales prices up 9 percent• Phoenix foreclosure sales prices up 18 percent
• Lenders are pricing bank-owned and short sales more aggressively• “We’re pricing things to sell. We’re not holding onto
anything thinking that values are going to come back … I don’t think anybody is in that mode. … It’s almost like you have to price properties to sell or your inventory is going to explode.” – Executive with mortgage servicer in Wisconsin whose company services mortgages nationwide.
BUYERS & INVESTORS READY• “Investors are back, they’re paying cash,
they’re excited about the deals they’re getting and they’re buying multiples” – Kandy Clayton, broker/owner at Clayton & Associates Real Estate in Sandy, Utah
• “We have a backlog of buyers we are working with that just can't find the right home based on the homes that continue to come to market. 2012 will be a nice turnaround year and once interest rates begin to rise we believe many of these buyers will come off the fence and make a move before this market changes.” – Ian Whitelaw, broker/owner at Central Properties Group in Oakland County, Mich.
43
MORE INVESTOR PERSPECTIVES
“It’s easier to get short sales than REOs. The banks just are not releasing the properties on the market. It’s an artificial supply shortage. With short sales they are more willing to deal.”– Bill Bronchick, president, Colorado Association of Realtors
“I don’t care about retail. I’m buying cash flow and return. I buy cap rates. We’re buying at 2001 and 2002 levels.”-- Dan Valentine, investor in Phoenix
