VALUE
In today's market, new homes are becoming more affordable. However, purchasing a new home is still a solid financial investment. At Mercedes Homes, we are committed to providing families with homes of outstanding and eduring value.

NEGLECTED HOMEOWNER MAINTENANCE
Often, homeowners anticipating foreclosure will not spend the time or money on the maintenance necessary to keep a house in good shape. Some dissapointed homeowners may even intentionally sabotage the house before leaving.

MOLD
With humidity in the home, especially if the air conditioning is not running, mold can be a big problem. And sometimes it can be hidden behind a wall where an inspector can't see it. Once mold takes hold on drywall, there's usually no hope for it to slow down.

NO WARRANTY
While some home warranties are transferable, foreclosures are sold "as is". A foreclosure is a prime example of the old saying "let the buyer beware".

BUILDING DEFECTS
When purchasing an older home, buyers often encounter problems associated with the building's age. One of these is the use of Chinese drywall, found in some homes built after 2003. Foreclosure buyers often do not detect symptoms of building defects until after the purchase of the home.

BANK DELAY
The banks involved in the foreclosure have financial professionals who are very aware of what the property is worth. They are in a position to hold out for the best price, so a lot of time can pass while the people bidding on the property wait to learn the outcome.
