"When you really need to know"

Call Harold A. Scott and Co. when you need appraisals for New Haven foreclosures

Harold A. Scott and Co. is the company you should trust when it comes to foreclosures in New Haven County

Homes in foreclosure and homes that have returned to the institution's holding create particular appraisal challenges.

When there is a home in foreclosure, you need to know market value versus a "quick disposition" assessment to evaluate your probable charge-off liability. The professionals at Harold A. Scott and Co. can provide both snapshots of market value for our mortgage servicing clients, in addition to "quick sale" forecasts that take into account your time line.

We have the qualifications to handle the special dynamics of a foreclosure appraisal. Contact Harold A. Scott and Co. for a company you can .

Occupants of homes in foreclosure may be unwilling to allow an inspection of the home, thus presenting unique challenges. They may have deserted the property already and/or overlooked the care of the home for quite some time - or in some cases damaged the property.

For a house that has already gone back to Real Estate Owned, you typically will want it off your hands as quickly as possible. In any case, you'll still want to consider three ways of looking at the value of the real estate at hand:

  • As Repaired. Value with the repairs called for to make the home marketable at full market value - commensurate with competing homes in the area
  • As-is. The value of the home without any work performed
  • Quick sale. With minimal investment in repairs - to offload the property quickly, most likely as a "fixer-upper"
Again, we understand your timeline and the unique situation of a Real Estate Owned home, as well as the special data you will need - competing listings, neighborhood trends, and so forth. You can bank on Harold A. Scott and Co. to take on the task of your bank owned property with expertise and professionalism. Contact us today.
