We go right to the source, the county recorder, to obtain the information. We are confident that we capture all the necessary notices and supply the information to you.

Question: |
I am a licensed agent; can I sell to my buyer and collect a commission? |
| |

Yes, as a licensed agent you can collect a commission for the sale. You will be responsible for handling your own commission, your commission or fee will be added on top of the final sales price.

Question: |
Will I receive a warranty deed from a title company? Does the transaction go through title? |
| |
Answer: |
No, the transaction does not go through title. The successful bidder receives a Trustees Deed. Depending on the trustee, the deed can take up to two weeks to get to you. Some Trustees record the deed while others send it directly to you and you have to record it. |

Question: |
Should I bid on a property that is occupied by the current owner? |
| |
Answer: |
We have never found occupancy to be a reason not to bid. Approximately 50% of the homes going to trustee sale are occupied. |

Question: |
What do I do if I find that the original owner is still occupying the house after I was the successful bidder? |
| |
Answer: |
The legal process to remove the previous owner is called Forcible Detainer. We have attorneys that we can recommend that handle this situation. Often you can create an arrangement to get the previous owner out without having to go through an attorney. We cover these techniques in our video that covers “what to do after the sale”. |

Question: |
If I have limited capital, can I get a loan to pay for the property? |
| |
Answer: |
Hard money or private money loans are available. We have sources for you to contact. In Arizona, trustee sales must be paid for by 5pm the next business day. Conventional financing does not work in this case as they can not produce funding within that time frame. |
