March 5th, 2012 – VoiceNation, the leading telecommunications provider in voicemail and virtual PBX solutions, has confirmed the increase of distressed home sales in the recovering housing market is having a positive effect on business. According to Business Week, sales of previously owned U.S. homes rose in January to the highest level since May 2010 as investors took advantage of lower prices to buy distressed properties. CNNMoney reports home prices fell to their lowest point in more than a decade in January. This drop coincides with the significant boost in the housing market.
“We are in an extremely hot, active and competitive market. Home values have plummeted 30-60% within the past 30 months,” states Steve Banis, Registered Agent of South Carolina Homes, Inc. located in the Charleston Tri-County market.
Real estate investors utilize VoiceNation’s voicemail, virtual PBX, and live answering services to streamline business operations, offering property information to prospective home buyers. “South Carolina Homes, Inc. has actively used VoiceNation’s terrific services for the past six years as an important key integral part of our corporation’s marketing business model,” replied Mr. Banis. “We use signs with local automated telephone numbers to drive motivated prospects to our Buy and Sell websites. At our three websites the prospect completes a VIP Buyer or Sell profile that gives all the strategic information required to do the best job possible for our now new motivated client.”
The National Association of Realtors found that purchases climbed 4.3 percent, making distressed properties, comprised of foreclosures and short sales, the largest portion of all purchases since April. Almost one in four of all transactions were made by investors. These purchases help clear the market of unsold properties and may stabilize prices.
