Free Jasper GA Foreclosure Specific Search Now Available: Refine MLS Listing Search to ONLY Bank Owned REO Homes in Pickens County GA!

With the number of foreclosed homes (and increasingly lots and land) that are now lender "Real Estate Owned" (REO) properties, many buyers are focusing their search on these distress sale houses as real estate bargains. But, targeting these bank owned properties specifically in online home and land searches from the convenience of your home or office has always been difficult . . . if not impossible. It usually means having to contact some real estate agent for assistance first (and who wants that, right?!!) . . .

As of this writing however, an estimated 45% of closed transactions nationwide involved properties identified as some form of distress sale. The low prices presented by this growing inventory of homes for sale that fall in this "foreclosure" or "short sale" category, makes being able to quickly identify these great deals more important than ever.

And now you can!

Aside from the other convenient search features already available at TrentCluley.com (including the ability to search the entire multiple listing service by property type, City/County, Neighborhood, Map Location, Address/Zip Code, MLS #, School, and more), a radio button is now available to refine the search to ONLY those properties identified in the MLS as "Foreclosure" or "Lender Owned".

Now you can move to the front of the line on the best foreclosed home deals in Jasper, Talking Rock, Bent Tree, Big Canoe, Ball Ground and other parts of Pickens County GA. No fees, no subscriptions, no junk data like many of those so-called foreclosure sites carry. Just current data on homes and land actually available for sale . . . including prices, addresses, and all!

Yeah, you'll probably still have to contact that dreaded salesperson at some point, once you've found that great bargain you've been looking for and just can't wait to get in and take a look at it, but at least now it'll be on your terms and at your pace. ;-)

Just visit the property search page at TrentCluley.com as always, and define your Jasper / Pickens County GA real estate search however you want it from there. And remember, use the "Save Search" and "Save Favorites" features to save your preferences and results so that you don't have to enter them each time you come back . . . plus you'll receive handy-dandy automatic email auto-notification of any new listings on the market, so you don't have to come back and run your search again every day!!! Cool, huh?

Thanks for trying it out.

Feedback and questions on the search features are always welcome, positive or negative . . .

  1. Trent,
    I followed the link looking for a small (5-10) acres, but it sure seems like it list all listings and not just the foreclosures, short sales.

  2. Are you clicking the small round button at the top of the search screen that says "foreclosure"? You have to select between all listings or just REO properties.

    I'm trying to get the link to default automatically to foreclosures only, but for some reason it's going back to all active.

    And keep in mind, the MLS relies on user-entered data. Occassionally a bank owned property may not be marked as such in the MLS, or mistakenly entered as one it's not, but this doesn't happen too often.

    Will keep tweaking to get the link to default to foreclosures only, but you should still at least be able to adjust your search from the main search page.

    Thanks for the input (and sorry it didn't cooperate for you!). If you have other questions or need specific info about a property, just shoot me an email.

    -- Trent.
