Record Foreclosures in Denver
by Osman Parvez
—-
A few weeks ago, I had dinner with a friend who had just bought a foreclosed home. A smart investor (and lending officer), he ran the numbers thoroughly and dived-in at a very attractive price.
Foreclosures are truly a cloud with a silver lining. For the previous owners, it was a painful experience but hopefully one they will recover from. For the new buyers, it’s a fresh start and if they did their homework, a savvy investment.
There are opportunities out there.
More on the regional impact of foreclosures. From the Rocky Mountain News:
More than 19,000 foreclosures have been filed in the seven-county Denver area in the first nine months of the year, only about 300 shy of the record set for all of 2006.
There were 19,120 foreclosures in the first three quarters of the year, marking a 37 percent jump from the 14,001 filed through September of last year, county public trustee offices said Monday. A record 19,425 foreclosures were filed in 2006.

We can highly recommend Sophie. Her attention to detail and communication skills are great. Our home was in area that most realtors are not familiar with, but Sophie took extra time to get to know the neighborhood in order to give us quality service. She also brought in a professional photographer to make our home look its best. Even though the listing was in winter, the house sold quickly. With Sophie’s business and people skills, we have no doubt she will be a top realtor in the area.
Osman was a refreshingly honest realtor. He stressed through the entire process that his goal was to make me happy with my home purchase. I greatly appreciated the fact that he never shied away from pointing out the negatives as well as the pluses of different places while leaving the final decision up to me.
