<p>I think either of these two are good. I will use them to purchase a home. They are more legitimate than other agents trying to do the same. </p> <p>However, there is a lot of legwork involved in looking at properties.</p>

<p>I've used buyside to put in a couple of offers. they are great, however you have to do most of the legwork. their website stinks.</p> <p>redfin is a lot easier to use.</p>

<p>I was looking at one they purchased for 541k. Sold it for 640k in a few months. I believe there were some back taxes on that property.</p> <p>I think they have a couple of investors backing them. </p>

<p>hey graphrix,</p> <p>don't know if you remember but I mentioned these guys about a year ago. I met them at a foreclosure auction and tried to purchase a property from them. Pretty interesting folks. Pacific Legacy has been doing this for years. </p>

I believe cancelled is also used for 2nd mortgages.

<p>Just wondering what the verbiage preventing open house info in a list was (not an agent, just curious).</p> <p>I've run across a number of listings with open house info embedded in the listing description. These are agents who have been around for a while.</p>

<p>I have put 2 offers on homes I've seen through open houses. </p> <p>The problem with open houses is the way they are marketed. Many agents don't take advantage of the internet and the tools it offers. Editing the listing description to include information about the open house dramitically...

<p>Looks like this agent/buyer purchased quite a number of homes in a short period of time and is currently foreclosing on 4 of the properties. </p> <p>11533 Horton, Downey 3/05</p> <p>444 Ponce, Placentia, 11/05</p> <p>920 Bastanchury, Placentia 12/05</p> <p>10243 Cord, Downey, 9/06</p>...

good work. i think there are 3 or 4 investors that work with pacific legacy. i've seen them at the auctions in placentia.

<p>graphix,</p> <p>they could have setup a shell (a partnership, etc) and used that name as the buyer. Take a look at pacific legacy real estate, they buy properties in trusts and you have no idea who the real owner is unless you get the underlying trust documents.</p>

<p>If anyone has the resources, take a look at the previous sales (2005) for 5931 kingsbriar in yorba linda and 5762 furnace creek rd in yorba linda. </p> <p>Both bought by the same person, 100% financed and both bought from the same seller. first house ended up at an auction, 2nd one is in...

Same company as BuySide, which I am a big fan of. With regular FSBO, there was little exposure to MLS. Iggy's posts on MLS.

<p>Hi All,</p> <p>Wanted to see if any of you have had any experience in getting concessions from sellers. I've heard that even though prices do not show significant declines, sellers are easing the transactions.</p> <p>Realtors have said sellers would be willing to pay closing costs...

almon, I am pretty sure that the lenders did not know of the buyer getting financed for 3 properties in 1 month.

<p>Speaking of high school dropouts, one of our family friends drives a ferrari. The guy is a mortgage broker, dumb as a door knob. To top it off, bought a $2M house 2 years ago. He was pulling in close to $200k. I went to school and got a degree and am working hard to save for a downpayment...

Just wondering what incentive the brokers/agents would have to prevent fraud. Their livelihood is based on selling and moving properties. I realize in the end it hurts them by having a weak market, but why not game the market as long as possible.

NEW is headed towards bankruptcy. They are going to have a hard time getting through the investigations and answering questions regarding questionable (illegal) accounting practices.

I believe they buy properties listed on the MLS. They have atleast 4 properties in the 92602 with Notice of Defaults. I'm assuming they'll likely end up as short sales or foreclosures. One is up on MLS as a short sale now.

Seems like a lot of fraud going. My other post shows a couple of houses purchased by the same person. Additionally, her sister and husband/partner show up on the 92602 foreclosure list separately.

<p>This might be another on in a series of uncovered frauds on the blogs.</p> <p>looking at mls listing: <nobr><strong>I703388.</strong> The property is located at 5 Winterfield Rd, 92602. Originally purchased on 11/05 for 726k with $500 down. Now listed for 739k. </nobr></p> <p><nobr>I...
