First, the site does not require any of your information or money just to see our properties. It’s free for everyone, which makes finding properties that much easier.
We are the only national listing service that caters to wholesale properties. Never again will you have to worry about searching for underground foreclosure lists that are hard to obtain, figure out, and even harder to benefit from. Every property on Bluechiplistings.com is laid out with lots of pictures and with all the important data you are looking for: property value, equity amount, equity percent, maps, owner contact, appraiser info, etc.
From the homepage, there is one-click access to the full property list. Other sites only show one or two properties just to bait you into paying money for the rest, or at least giving them your information so they can contact you. Not here.
We are the only site to use human appraisers to verify properties, instead of the normal automated value-verification sites you are used to seeing.
Our search and sorting features are more advanced than any online listing service.
Our member section allows you to not only edit your property info, but track the amount of traffic each property is getting! And receive email notifications when someone is interested!
The bottom line is this. This site sets a new standard for quality and functionality over any site that come even close to offering wholesale listings. It's not even correct to look at it as different, but better to consider it REVOLUTIONARY!
WHY SHOULD I WANT TO USE THIS SITE?
The main reason a buyer would use this site is to find wholesale or distressed properties in a easier and faster way. Save valuable time and make buying decisions quicker by having the luxury of seeing what appraisers are saying about every "verified" property. Also, everyone knows that pictures are a really big PLUS when evaluating properties, and Bluechiplistings.com has at least 6 pictures for every property listed.
The main reason why a seller would list their properties here is to increase the overall marketability of the property and to provide exposure to the retail, and especially the wholesale, marketplace. The biggest reluctance from a potential buyer is "value skepticism" – when the buyer does not believe that your property is the deal the owner or seller says it is. This best thing you can tell a buyer to help overcome this reluctance is to mention that an (unbiased) appraiser agrees with you. And that’s what Bluechiplistings.com does – we solve this problem, and this will help selling your properties easier (and more importantly) you will sell them faster! People sell properties faster from this site because there is no other central place to go to find just wholesale properties for free! Period.
The value is definitely there so give Bluechiplistings.com a try with your property. It's free to list, so you really have nothing to lose, but the added exposure, and a property to sell.
HOW DOES THE APPRAISER PROPERTY VALUE VERIFICATION WORK?
Human appraisers perform actual comparable checks on each property submitted for value verification. If it is determined that the value is reasonable, then the appraiser’s stamp of approval tag is placed on that property and posted to the database as a verified listing. The remarkable thing about it is that everyone viewing that listing will know which certified appraiser reviewed and confirmed the value in question, and the prospective buyer can contact that appraiser the submit an appraisal request, all from the property listing’s page.
HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?
Free listings are available for users who do not wish to have their property’s value verified, i.e., retail sale for example, or if the value/ price ratio does not equal to at least 10 percent. The main idea is this: Every property must have at least 10 percent equity in order to be considered for our appraiser verification service, because there is no point in verifying a property's value if there is no equity involved! To have your property’s value verified by certified appraisers, Bluechiplistings.com charges $15 for a 90 day listing. Your listings will run for 90 days after it has been posted to our site. If you do not cancel your listing, it will remain posted for a total of 180 days with an auto-renewal amount of $35 on the 91st day. During any 90 day period, you are able to delete your listing, modify your listings, i.e., reduce the price, and have it resubmitted for verification at no additional cost. There are discounted rates for longer listing time frames and for bulk listings. And right now, the 90 option is FREE in order to build our database!
WHY ARE THERE SOME LISTINGS THAT SAY UNVERIFIED UNDER THE LAST 3 VALUE COLUMNS?
Properties with "unverified" written in these columns are also tagged as such at the top of each property on its individual page. This means that this property’s value has not been verified by our appraisers for either 2 reasons: (1) The seller chose not to have the property verified, or (2) The property failed the value verification process. The yellow tag at the top of each property page indicates whether the listing HAS not been verified or COULD not be verified.
WHY DO PROPERTY LISTINGS ONLY LAST FOR 90 DAYS?
All property listings are subject to expire after 90 days for two reasons.
(1) For unverified properties: We want to keep fresh listings available for buyers. Sellers are likely to be careless and not delete their own ads after they sell. This causes needless searching by the buyer for properties that are no longer available.
(2) For verified properties: 90 days is the maximum time the comparable sales can be valid on a current appraisal. Since comparables are advertised with these listings, they must be renewed after 90 days in order to maintain their validity and reliability.
