I have seen a lot of negative on Activerain about Bank of America short sales.  I have had the opposite experience with them.    The first one is a short sale in Livingston CA.  I received multiple offers on this one.  I submitted a very good cash offer to BofA through the equator system.   It di...

If you are like many people here in Stanislaus and Merced counties of California's Central Valley you are upside down in your home.    I know it can be very frustrating and you might not be sure what to do.  You might think foreclosure is inevitable.  Foreclosure might not be your only answer.  M...

Ok, this has nothing to do with real esate.  I know activerain is great for getting peoples opinions about everything real estate, now how about something else.  I have been thinking about getting a motorcycle, specificially a Yamaha Roadstar.    I know there must be some motorcycle riders out th...

I am  sure we have seen bank owned homes with the fixtures removed, appliances gone, carpets torn up, etc.  I recently ran across a property where the owners really went to the extreme.  I was asked to do an interior Brokers Price Opinion (BPO) by one of the major banks.  So I drove out to the pr...
