Some New "Best Buys" for Investors...

Here is my latest Charlotte area real estate investor suggestion list. There appears to have been a slight slowing of activity in the late-summer. REO properties seem to be on the market longer, and with a 15-day owner-occupant preference period for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac properties, that means more become available to investors. Here is a summary of the properties in this edition:

#1- MLS 2171420 - 3BR/1BA in the Starmount community (near South Blvd and light rail); reduced to $90,000 with a tax value of $140,700. This could be either a good fix-and-flip or a decent rental property.

#2- 2163665 - 3/2 Fannie Mae REO in Matthews (good area and schools); reduced to $120,000 with tax value of $135,300.

#3- 2143477 - larger 3/2.5 in Huntersville; this Fannie REO was under a contract that failed; nice upgrades and finishes, but needs some rehab; reduced to $172,000 with a tax value of $206,500.

#4- 2162256 - 4/2.5 in Dallas (Gastonia) built in 2010; this Chase REO needs very little and would make a good rent-and-hold property with a LP reduced to $137,750 and a tax value of $169,079.

#5- 2159466 - 4/2.5 in zip code 28273 - reduced to $138,900 with tax value of $181,100.

#6- 2173179 - 3/2 Fannie Mae REO in northern Monroe on 1.53 acre lot; priced at $129,900 with a tax value of $164,360.

#7- 2173568 - 3/2 on .56 acre in Mooresville (Lake Norman area), this Fannie Mae REO is priced at $185,000 with a tax value of $213,940.

#8- 2173881 - 3/2 VA REO just north of Mint Hill; asking $85,000 with tax value of $106,300.

#9- 2143911 - 3/2 in Matthews (again; good location and school assignments), reduced to $134,900 with a tax value of $148,300.

#10- 2166733 - 3/2 Fannie Mae REO in Idlewild South reduced to $59,900 with tax value of $92,300.

#11- 2169714 - 3/1.5 REO in zip code 28212 (East Charotte) reduced to $67,000 with tax value of $90,200.

#12- 2173717 - Duplex in zip code 28210 with each side rented for $590; listing price of $115,000 with a tax value of $123,900. This is a bit unusual in that these smaller multifamily properties don't usually generate a decent gross yield, but even at the full LP, this one would generate 12%+ gross, assuming the $590/month per side representation is true. It might also have some room for appreciation.

#13- 2164998 - 3/2.5 in N. Charlotte is a rare HUD home that made it past the 30-day preference period; reduced to $81,000 with a tax value of $149,200. There are probably condition issues here.

#14- 3/2 Fannie Mae REO in Indian Trail with 57 DOM, reduced to $141,900 with tax value of $165,580.

#15- 2160176 - 4/2.5 in B of A REO in sizp code 28211 (near Dilworth) reduced to $199,400 with a tax value of $257,200.

#16- 2149617 - 4/2.5 Matthews/Weddington home on 2 acres; reduced to $225,000 with tax value of $289,080.

#17- 2150030 - 3/2 renovated turn-key home (probably a flip) reduced to $134,900 with tax value of $157,000. Zip code 28212; this might still make a decent turn-key rent and hold.

As always, if you have any questions about these or any other properties, please don't hesitate to contact me.
