Advice from Our Real Estate Professionals
Our Real Estate Experts help you find the perfect foreclosure and navigate the unique challenges of buying a foreclosure.
My name is Troy Ott and I have been in the real estate business for over 20 years. The last five years I have owned my own company Troy Ott Real Estate, LLC. I am a licensed broker in charge/owner in both North and South Carolina. I learned a long time ago that short sales and foreclosures represent the absolute best buying value opportunities in our local market or any market for that matter. A “short sale” is when a property is offered for sale in lieu of its imminent foreclosure for a discounted as is price. These opportunities are extremely advantageous to all, both buyer and sellers alike. For sellers the chance to liquidate a real estate holding before having to hire foreclosure attorneys is a huge benefit and cost saver, while for buyers the same rules apply plus short sales many times are in reasonably good condition as they have not sat stagnant off the market for long periods of time as is the case with many foreclosures.
Throughout my career I have sold literally hundreds of foreclosures and with great affect, spotting them first for buyer clients is a skill in an of itself that I have mastered and then facilitating a seamless sale and closing is my second gift to my investor clients. The Columbia, SC Metro Market include all of Richland, Lexington, and Kershaw counties, and I can assure you their is no better pure value market in the entire country. I have sold $50,000 foreclosures and $1,000,000+ foreclosures, no matter the price point my expertise, market acumen, and work ethic, is always the same, beyond compare. Call or email me today with your desires and buying parameters and I will make it happen for you like no other. 2021 looks to be an outstanding year for foreclosure activity as the COVID debacle finally plays itself out. Let’s get started together.
