Foreclosures & Short Sales:
Dilemmas and Solutions
7 Hrs. ACE
With the recent real estate crisis foreclosures and short sales have become hot topics in the real estate and appraisal industry. Many appraisers encounter properties going through a foreclosure or short sale. This seminar provides students with the necessary background information to understand why foreclosures and short sales have become more prevalent in most markets. The seminar and text also covers how predatory lending and fraud schemes lead to a more volatile market.
The seminar describes the steps appraisers take to determine a value range for a foreclosed property by analyzing available comparable and market data. Topics include flipping, fraud and predatory lending, and determining a value range with "as-is", "as-repaired" and other types of values, as well as market time restrictions. The seminar covers specific report forms and documents needed in the development of these appraisals, as well as current legislation and regulations and future concerns for appraisers. Case studies and problem solving practices are included in this seminar.
The source of the material is Hondros Learning, and the seminar is AQB approved.
