The San Tan Valley Housing Market
San Tan Valley is one of the largest unincorporated communities in the country, more than a hundred thousand people in Pinal County subdivisions with no city government of their own. It was built almost entirely between 2004 and 2008, so the housing stock in Johnson Ranch, San Tan Heights, Copper Basin, and Pecan Creek is aging in lockstep: tile-roof underlayment, air conditioners, and water heaters from the boom years are all due at once, and the HOAs that run every community are quick to cite homes that fall behind. This area was hit as hard as anywhere in Arizona by the foreclosure wave, and a lot of today's sellers are the second or third owner of a home that was flipped cheaply. Services come from the county, the main roads into Queen Creek and Gilbert are congested at rush hour, and the older pockets along the San Tan foothills are still on wells and septic. Tired landlords, HOA fines, relocation out of the far east Valley, and inherited homes are the situations we handle most in San Tan Valley.
Inherited House Facing Foreclosure in San Tan Valley
This is one of the most common calls we get, and it is almost always discovered late. A parent dies, the family is dealing with the funeral and the estate, and nobody realizes the mortgage has gone unpaid until a notice of trustee's sale is taped to the door. In Arizona a lender can foreclose without going to court, and the sale can happen about three months after that notice is recorded. The lender does not pause because the borrower died, and it will not discuss the loan with you until you prove you have the right to speak for the estate. Two clocks are running at once. The foreclosure clock runs on the lender's schedule. The inheritance clock depends on how the house passed: by beneficiary deed or trust, you can sell quickly once the death is recorded; through probate, you need Letters of Appointment before anyone can sign. Heirs who wait for the estate to be fully settled before acting usually lose the house and the equity in it. We buy inherited houses facing foreclosure and we build the closing around the sale date. We help you get the documents the servicer needs, request the payoff and reinstatement figures, ask the trustee for a postponement when the dates are tight, and close through a title company so the loan, arrears, and fees are paid and the remaining equity goes to the heirs. The house can be full of your parent's belongings; we buy it that way.
