Foreclosed properties offer both opportunity and risk. While they can generate substantial returns, success depends on effectively addressing any underlying problem.
At Asset Field Services Pro, our services include mitigation of fines and liens with city and county authorities—a crucial step that often gets overlooked until it becomes costly problem. Left unsolved, these issues can lead to thousands in penalties and delayed closings.
Why Fines and Liens Are a Serious Concern?
When a property goes into foreclosure, it often remains vacant for extended periods. During this time, municipalities may issue code violations for issues such as:
- Overgrown vegetation
- Accumulated debris of trash
- Hazardous of deteriorating structures
- Broken windows or unsecured entry points
- Unauthorized renovations or unfinished construction
- Failure to register or renew registration for a vacant property
These violations can quickly escalate into hefty fines and, over time, result in municipal liens. Additionally, utility companies may file their own liens for unpaid services, further compounding the financial burden tied to the property.
How can Asset Field Services Pro can help?
Our team works directly with city departments, code enforcement officers, and utility providers to reduce—and in many cases eliminate—these penalties.
Here’s how we do it:
- We research public records and city databases to uncover all outstanding liens, including code, municipal, citations, HOA and utility-related.
- We provide the field services needed to bring the property into compliance.
- We get in contact with local governments, code enforcement officials, and utility companies to reduce penalties, dismiss outdated liens, or settle for a fraction of the original cost.
