Nothing is more misunderstood then in the world of Michigan real estate investing then the search for the foreclosure listings in Michigan or as is it called amongst the hard core real estate investors - “the list”.
Every body wants to get their hands on all the Michigan foreclosure listings that they can get - in their home town or some other area that they are interested in. My office gets calls all the time from out of State investors especially from high priced States like California, Florida, Nevada, Arizona, New Jersey to name a few - real estate investors from those States looking for Michgian foreclosure listings.
But very few people ever get the whole story about the foreclosure listings and where to get them in Michigan and even few ever break the code to take those Michigan listings and actually make money with them.
I have written this post and some subsequent posts after receiving countless email and fax requests coming to my office, my personal email and personal requests - all looking for the elusive Michigan foreclosure list. I wrote this to answer and dispel many myths that surround the word - foreclosure listings and hoping that you will take the knowledge so freely shared that took a while to figure out myself and make money out of this.
But first a little introduction - there have been lots of new blog readers in the recent weeks (my email list is growing like crazy!) and I am an expert in buying and selling Michigan foreclosures.
My name is Mark Ijlal and I am a full time real estate investor in Southeastern Michigan. I buy and sell foreclosures - usually single family homes, 3-4 bedrooms in Southeastern Michigan. Sometimes, when I am bored, I would deal apartment complexes also. I, too searched for the Michgian foreclosure listings in my surrounding towns furtively for a good year when I started buying and selling foreclosures before I cracked the code behind the search for foreclosure listings.
Life is very interesting - happily married with 2 daughters, 35 years old, and living a life that is pretty much would have been impossible to even dream five years ago - all because of my understanding of how the world of bank foreclosures work.
I want you to take this knowledge that I so freely sharing with you and do something with it. Don't just print it and put it in a folder - read it, implement it, use it and put some new money in your bank account.
