I can't tell you how much money we have made simply by controlling the BPO. I have to disagree vehemently with the first commenter, NEVER would we allow a BPO agent to simply access the property by lockbox. Make an appointment and we'll meet you. We'll get there early and be waiting with bells on. A BPO is show time for us! We make sure that every aspect of the property is seen. (gotta love disclosure rules). We recently bought a property that had a $300,000 mortgage balanc eon it for $5,000.00. Not a misprint, I said $5,000.00! It helped that when the BPO agent showed up we asked her if she had a concealed weapons permit as there were some crackheads sleeping in the unsecured house. She walked up and it was like a scene out of Silence of The Lambs...she could not wait to get out. She was there maybe 5 minutes...bank called the next day..bingo..cash money! Hey, we'll never put a dead dog in a house but if the dead dog is in there, we leave it there until the BPO has concluded. Now that's influencing and controlling the process. Cha ching! Great article, Barry Cunningham Real Estate Radio USA We have been teaching about the influence of a BPO being the most important aspect of a short sale and it seemingly falls upon the deaf ears of lazy agents.
