When Your House Is A Monkey On Your Back...

Celebration, Florida

Real estate angel, mortgage broker and investor, Christian Bohyn, shares on this Blog how to survive and invest without losing your shirt. He deals on a daily basis with bank-owned properties, also known as "REO" or Real Estate Owned properties, a term used by lenders when they have to point out their portfolio of Foreclosed properties. As Christian Bohyn states, foreclosures, pre-foreclosure short sales, loan modifications, and declining real estate values have struck fear and panic into the hearts of homeowners and consumers alike. Dabbling in the real estate foreclosure and the short sale market is not for the faint of heart. Such are the lessons that Christian has learned, the hard way, as he saw his investments decline in value and rapidly needed to develop a system to sell homes fast. While some people are now making a fortune, even in this "down market," Christian learned to stop the bleeding by taking action. He decided to sell his housing portfolio in short sale or give it back to the bank in a "deed in lieu". Using his experience and his MBA background, he advises his clients how to properly evaluate both the potential and the risks involved with a foreclosure property. Together with MonkeySold, his mortgage company, he has developed a specific plan for negotiating short sales, loan modifications and sales agreements that result in win-win transactions for sellers and mortgage lenders - as well as the buyer. Tapping into a vast network of real estate and business experts, Christian Bohyn also shares a variety of knowledge and resources for those looking to build wealth during these challenging economic times.
