Foreclosure & Judicial Listings

[Travis Munroe]

This link includes foreclosure and judicial listings. Keep in mind, a judicial listing is not always a foreclosure, however, I wanted to include them as the motivation is often the same.

I want to ask a stupid question
Whats difference between judicial listing and Foreclosure ?
And, usually how much less are these foreclosure prices from market price.

[Travis Munroe]

Not a stupid question - it is quite common!

Judicial can mean several things however it is often that the owners have equity in the property and it would not be fair for the bank to determine the value as the bank simply wants their money back.
If 500k is owed and the place is worth 600k, the bank is happy to list it for 500k and the owners walk away with nothing.
The courts won't accept such a offer based on the listing Realtors evaluation/Appraisers evaluation.
That said, it can easily run 50k in expenses for legal fees, commissions, management fees of the property, etc so owing 500k and having the courts accept a 560k offer leaves very little left over.
Keep in mind, there are numerous reasons why it can get into the courts hands and above is just 1 example which is not overly common as most foreclosures result in little to no equity. Even if your selling price is equal to what is owed, I am unable to list it on the market as there is no equity to pay commissions. A solution is to have the owner pay out of pocket or put money in trust however the chances of someone in such a situation having the free cash are rare.

Does this report real time update itself? It's showing 58 items right now - does that mean the August total would be 58 up from 33?

If so, wow...

If you look at lots of the list there are sold and expired listings so they aren't all active at this time

Interesting - I had no idea the new system we are on did this. I will just update the total number of actives as the map is showing all the C/S, Expired and Sold properties dating back a month or 2.

3.5 million foreclosure with almost $4,700 a month in condo fees!
Granted it is almost 5000 sq ft with a 2000 sq ft patio and 3 parking stalls.

any chance of an update please?

So you just buy these properties like a normal MLS listing, right?

Some minor differences which are very important to understand but for the most part, they are quite similar.

I was a Scotiabank "preferred" Realtor on the selling side of foreclosures and have taken an advanced course for the buying side. Seeing both sides of the transaction has been quite advantageous for my clientele who have bought foreclosures.

Thanks for the update but I do not like the new format that your using. I like how the old format would update prices, if the unit sold and for how much.

Thank you for the feedback, I am unable to do it like that any longer but can try to find a more user friendly way than what is currently posted for the next update!

Those foreclosures don't appear to be at much of reduced price. Makes sense that they're trying to recover as much value as possible but I thought there would be some better deals to be had at this point.

Guess we're not there yet?

[Travis Munroe]

You might save yourself an additional 2-3% on a foreclosure. Perhaps more if there is work needed at the property but the idea that your going to buy a 400k home for 200k as you see in media throughout the states is pure bs.


Foreclosures are great for the value driven buyer. While selection is lower, that small savings is still a savings on the house that goes up for sale next door.

Thanks for the running updates. Do you intentionally do every two months or just too busy? What happened to the other way of viewing the list? It was much more user friendly.

With respect to the savings on foreclosures, seems correct that you're not going to see too much of a difference - but we're talking about completely different markets. There were streets littered with foreclosures in the US. With 80 currently that's maybe 0.45 per community. So the comparison is poor.

If and when the number grows and they become a bigger amount of the listing inventory you might start to see bigger discounts. However, those would likely be somewhat matched by non-foreclosure listings until there's just too many which is when you'd see banks liquidating.

We're a LONG way from that though. Which doesn't mean it can't happen. By long I mean long with respect to the size of the inventory vs. time. Things can change fast.

The updates come as time permits, no set schedule. It can look like I have 3 days with little to nothing to do and then I have a full week.
As for the new layout, I have figured out a way to go back to the old system without having any errors on my back end so the next update will be back to the user friendly way.

[SeeGeeWhy]

Really interested in this thread this year

[Travis Munroe]

bump for update - and went back to the old format!
