Sarasota Foreclosure Real Estate Frequently Asked Questions


Are there a lot of foreclosure homes available in Sarasota?

No, it is not typical to find a selection of Sarasota foreclosures in the past several years. The Sarasota FL. market is one of the healthiest markets in the country currently, so the number of foreclosures available is very low.

Is there a lot of competition for foreclosed properties?

Yes. There are many cash buyers looking for foreclosed properties in the market, so competition is typically fierce.

Is there risk in buying a Sarasota Foreclosure?

Buying a foreclosure anywhere has risk. The biggest risk is that the home needs more work than a buyer anticipates. These homes are sold as-is, so buyers can not expect the bank to make any repairs.

How do I prepare to buy a foreclosed property in Sarasota?

“Cash is king” with foreclosures, so having funds available to close quickly is imperative. IF you are planning to finance, have a lender pre-approval letter ready to go. Getting a home inspection is important, and speak with the owners of homes that surround the property to understand more about the property history.

Are foreclosure auctions a good option?

Some lenders will market property through a Realtor for a period of time, while others will auction properties immediately. If not experienced at buying foreclosed properties, it is best to work with a Realtor that is experienced with foreclosures.
