The outlying areas are well-represented, to be sure.

GuestI attended the auction, it was the first one I have been to and did not know what to expect. There seemed to be a lot of people, I would guess 500. The auction started right on time 9:30 and first few properties sold anywhere between 50-66% of the previous value. Keep in mind that there was an additional 5% brockerage fee. The auction moved along, there were many homes that had to be re-auction for whatever reason, I suspect that maybe the auctioneer might have had insiders bidding and they ended up with the high bids. The following are two examples of 2 properties in Chula Vista that I feel were too expensive:
Berry Creek Rd
3800 Sq Ft
PV-919K
SB-399K
Sold for 710K plus 35.5K (5% Bkg fee) total 745.5K
This property was subject to Lenders Approval
Very nice property, but I feel too expensive for the area, plus its Taxes and Mellaroos were well over 14K per year.Bellena St.
2900 Sq Ft
PV-669K
SB-349K
Sold for 540K plus 27k total 567K
Again nice propertu but I feel too expensive for where the market will be in a couple of years.Overall it was fun and exhausting, I showed up with my 5K cashier check and my check book, but did not buy anything. It was hard, I wanted to participate and win something but I was patient and did not. Hopefully my patience will payoff soon.

ParticipantDoes anyone have insight into the previous auction and what happened to the properties afterwards?
I am curious whether the properties that ‘sold’ at the auction actually ended up in an escrow where ownership changed hands to a new homeowner.
As neto mentions, these auctions probably have shills at them and I suspect it is not uncommon for the shills to end up ‘buying’ the property.
There are also the practices of ‘rolling’ (where the auctioneer ‘rolls’ past a price-point as though he received a bid) and ‘taking a bid off the wall’ (where the auctioneer accepts a bid from a non-existent bidder). In both of these cases the auctioneer could end up with a ‘sold’ property that had to be re-auctioned because the final bid wasn’t from a real buyer.
Caveat emptor at these auctions. There are no laws against shills, rolling or taking bids off the wall. Understand that these auctions are being run by typical REIC slime who will stoop to very low levels to stick somebody with an over-priced house and earn a commission in the process.
Any insights into previous auctions? Are these properties actually coming off the market? Deeds being recorded showing new owners?

Participantneto: Thank your lucky stars! Both of them have been sold to knife catchers and will be back on auction block in a year again. It is insane for anything in Chula Vista to be valued at more than $150/Sqft.

ParticipantDarn… each time the REDC auction lists the properties I mean to download all of the advertised starting bids so we can look at them after the auction (several weeks later) to see if the properties closed and what the closing prices were actually at. I already went to the site and they have already removed the SD auction.
I agree with everything 4plex said about the auction. However I think they may actually provide bargains as long as you keep to your strategy, perform ALL of your due diligence BEFORE the auction, and stick to your price limit.

Lets give it about 5-6 weeks and then I will look up those properties posted and see if they have a new owner recorded on the tax roll. Then we will see what the closing price was.
What is more important to me then the closing price is how far the bid was from the starting price.
If I forget please remind me around December 1 okay? We need to wait until escrow closes to see the recording take place.

ParticipantAnybody up on what is happening at the trustee’s sale with regards to outside bidders? Are the lenders still taking back most of the homes? I am not an expert at this but if the houses at the REO auctions start really going lower then maybe the trustee will be letting places go cheaper, cash. I have been to the courthouse for a few of these sales in the 90’s never bought anything.

They are not being sold to private parties by the trustees.Even if the phantom inventory was being bought up by “bulk” buyers as REO’s we would see those properties coming from the bulk buyers to the MLS and I don’t see it.

As far as cash buying of trustee sale properties goes, I would think bargains are found by that method after all other options are netting the mortgage holder(s)less than some low cash offers would. That will probably be quite some time out. It would be interesting to study how to time it. Doesen’t seem like rocket science.

ParticipantUnderstood…
I used to be a big believer in the covert inventory of billions of dollars worth of homes being held back by lenders. The more I work on these sorts of transactions the less I believe it.
Once someone shows me some hard proof then I will be more convinced. It will take more then posts on a blog though. I am not saying it is not true, I just want to see more concrete evidence.
Agreed with your points on the cash purchases at the trustee sale. I can see it happening but not for awhile.

There is still very very little activity in the more desireable areas while the less desireable areas have very consistent activity but surely they havent gone through the roof. The idea of huge amounts of phantom inventory being witheld by the banks is a bunch of mullarky IMNSHO.

ParticipantAnybody up on what is happening at the trustee’s sale with regards to outside bidders? Are the lenders still taking back most of the homes? I am not an expert at this but if the houses at the REO auctions start really going lower then maybe the trustee will be letting places go cheaper, cash. I have been to the courthouse for a few of these sales in the 90’s never bought anything.

ParticipantSD Realtor, if you have time, it would be great if you could update us on what the auctioned houses eventually close at.
What about the previous auction? Does anyone have actual results to share?

ParticipantHere are the results for a quick look at the tax roll from the MLS for the listings that neto posted. Most of them did not have a change of status on the tax roll meaing either the property fell out of escrow or it is still in escrow.
Also the sales price I put in was what was recorded on the tax roll and as you can see the 5% was built into the price. (Neto thanks for posting all of these)
I think the amount of closed escrows actually surprises me.

ParticipantDarn… each time the REDC auction lists the properties I mean to download all of the advertised starting bids so we can look at them after the auction (several weeks later) to see if the properties closed and what the closing prices were actually at. I already went to the site and they have already removed the SD auction.
I agree with everything 4plex said about the auction. However I think they may actually provide bargains as long as you keep to your strategy, perform ALL of your due diligence BEFORE the auction, and stick to your price limit.

Participantneto: Thank your lucky stars! Both of them have been sold to knife catchers and will be back on auction block in a year again. It is insane for anything in Chula Vista to be valued at more than $150/Sqft.

GuestI attended the auction, it was the first one I have been to and did not know what to expect. There seemed to be a lot of people, I would guess 500. The auction started right on time 9:30 and first few properties sold anywhere between 50-66% of the previous value. Keep in mind that there was an additional 5% brockerage fee. The auction moved along, there were many homes that had to be re-auction for whatever reason, I suspect that maybe the auctioneer might have had insiders bidding and they ended up with the high bids. The following are two examples of 2 properties in Chula Vista that I feel were too expensive:
Berry Creek Rd
3800 Sq Ft
PV-919K
SB-399K
Sold for 710K plus 35.5K (5% Bkg fee) total 745.5K
This property was subject to Lenders Approval
Very nice property, but I feel too expensive for the area, plus its Taxes and Mellaroos were well over 14K per year.Bellena St.
2900 Sq Ft
PV-669K
SB-349K
Sold for 540K plus 27k total 567K
Again nice propertu but I feel too expensive for where the market will be in a couple of years.Overall it was fun and exhausting, I showed up with my 5K cashier check and my check book, but did not buy anything. It was hard, I wanted to participate and win something but I was patient and did not. Hopefully my patience will payoff soon.
