What’s Working? What’s Not? Where are the Deals? How Can I succeed? What does the Future Hold?
Presented by: Bruce Norris
Real estate investors are wearing out the question marks on their keyboards thanks to a market that’s as stable as a one-legged table in a slanted room. If navigating the constant state of flux has you frustrated and flabbergasted, you’re not alone.
But there is good news. Despite all of the legislative confusion and regulation-induced mayhem, investors continue to successfully buy, sell, and — most importantly — make a profit.
Here’s proof: Since the beginning of 2011, The Norris Group has purchased 75 wholesale deals and funded more than 100 other deals for capable buyers all over our sun-drenched corner of the world. That’s nearly 200 quality deals in just four months.
Bruce Norris is the man behind those successes, and he’s bringing that knowledge to California Real Estate Investors at Work. Here’s a sample of what Bruce has planned:
He’ll start by covering the charts and trends you absolutely must know.
Next, he’ll dig into the DNA of five real-world short sales and trustee sales and show you how and why they happened … no hypotheticals here.
Bruce will also walk you step-by-step through the entire process — from listing to price reductions to negotiations, acceptance and funding.

The Foreclosure Report – April 2011
Foreclosure activity slowed in April. Foreclosure filings were down in Arizona, California, Nevada and Washington, with Oregon being the sole exception where filings were up. California filings were down to levels not seen since late 2008, when governmental intervention caused a temporary but massive drop in activity. Foreclosure sales saw similar declines throughout our coverage area, except Washington. Notably, cancellations were up significantly across the board, leaving fewer propeties scheduled for trustee sale.
“The drop in filings, and the rise in cancellations, is surprising,” says Sean O’Toole, CEO and Founder of ForeclosureRadar.com. “Banks have had time to resolve robo-signing issues, so we should be seeing exactly the opposite results, with lenders starting to catch up from recent delays.”
Arizona
Notice of Trustee Sale filings were down 27.9 percent in April 2011 from the prior month, falling to the lowest point we’ve seen since we began tracking Arizona in August 2009, and down 41.5 percent from the same time last year. There was a similar dip in foreclosure sales, with a 22.2 percent drop in sales Back to Bank and a 15.4 percent decline in Sales to 3rd Parties month-over-month. Cancellations rose 18.8 percent month-over-month, which together with the drop in filings led to 10.6 percent fewer properties Scheduled for Sale.

California
Foreclosure filings in California fell to lows not seen since the fall of 2008. Notice of Default filings dropped 25.8 percent, and Notice of Trustee Sale filings fell 10.9 percent from March. On a year-over-year basis foreclosure filings were down as well, with Notice of Default filings down 28.0 percent and Notice of Trustee Sale filings falling 31.2 percent from April 2010. Foreclosure sale cancellations rose 27.0 percent from March. Acivity on the courthouse steps slowed from the prior month, with 17.2 percent fewer sales Back to Bank and a 15.8 percent drop in properties purchased by 3rd Parties, typically investors.

Properties sold Back to Bank fell 17.8 percent, however, Sales to 3rd Parties increased 38.7 percent month-over-month.
