Upcoming Foreclosure Auction
August 11, 2008
On Sunday Aug. 17, 2008 at the Riverside Convention Center, US Home Auctions will auction off 275 homes in Riverside and the surrounding areas.
Registration begins at 8:00 a.m. Auction starts promptly at 9:30 a.m.
You can review the properties that will be at auction at: http://www.USHomeAuction.com
We highly recommend you go see these properties before the auction. If you would like to see the inside, give us a call at (951) 205-4429. There is no obligation, and having a professional real estate agent assist you with the auction process will really help in making the right decision and not getting caught up in the frenzy of the auction.
After you find the properties that interest you, go online and pre-register; be sure to register your agent’s name also.
When you arrive at the auction you will be asked to show your identification and a $5,000.00 cashiers check or cash for the earnest money deposit and will be assigned a bidder number.
A 5% “Buyers Premium” will be added to all winning bid amounts to establish the total purchase price. This is the fee the auction charges for costs involved.
In some cases auction properties are not the better deal. By working with us we can provide you with comparable listings and you can set a ceiling of what you are willing to pay. Many times we can actually show you better deals than an auction property.
REMEMBER, if you plan to purchase a property at the auction, you must have:
- a $5,000 cashier’s check (or cash) made payable to yourself.
- the available funds to write a personal check or pay cash for the balance of the required 5% earnest money deposit due on auction day.
- valid picture identification for all parties to the transaction.

[ SOLD for $269,900 ] Text book cute! This historical 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom single story cottage is approximately 1400 sq ft and was built in 1942 with Colonial Revival style detailing. This traditional single family residence has been designated as a “Structure of Merit” by the City of Riverside, and has been carefully maintained over the years.
Some wonderful features include updated plumbing, central air/heat, original (and gorgeous) hardwood floors throughout, eat-in kitchen plus formal dining room, original tile in hallway bathroom, original bedroom closet shoe rack, romantic fireplace, crown moulding, indoor laundry, 30-year commercial-grade kitchen lineoleum, and $1,000 whisper-quiet dishwasher.
The recessed brick porch overlooks a large sycamore tree in the front yard. The backyard is large enough to accommodate a pool if you wish, but for now please enjoy the garden shed, citrus trees and built-in BBQ. A detached 2-car garage matches the style of the residence, and is accessed by a long Hollywood driveway. The garage has been drywalled, and an extra room was added for storage, office, or workout room, etc. The traditional garage door was replaced with French doors; however, a garage door could be easily re-installed.
You couldn’t want better neighbors, nor could you be in a better location which is walking distance to the Riverside Plaza, movie theatre, supermarkets and banks, and just blocks from RCC (Riverside Community College).
This is a standard sale — this is not a foreclosure or short sale! Sellers are able and willing to respond to all offers within 24 hours. No waiting weeks [or months] for a bank’s answer!
Start thinking about how to spend your First-time Homebuyer Tax Credit … as long as you qualify, are under contract by April 30th, and close escrow by June 30th!!
