Welcome

At Better Neighborhoods Revitalization and Better Neighborhoods Realty, we specialize in foreclosed properties. We represent individuals and groups of individuals who purchase distressed property at the court house steps and then rehab the property, getting it ready for sale.  The rehab could include any combination of new paint, carpeting, hardwood floors, appliances, cabinetry  roofing, landscaping, hardware, to name a few.  You will be pleased with the "new home" feel of our homes.  

Additionally, we represent banks in the disposition of property acquired through the foreclosure process.  Bank owned properties usually will not have any cosmetic rehabilitation; it is up to you as the potential homebuyer to see the home at its future potential.  Imagine the home with new paint or carpeting and refreshed landscaping.  In exchange for you completing the cosmetic repairs after the close of escrow, you can benefit from a lower price than a regular, non-distressed home. 

None of our properties are short-sale transactions, so there will not be an extended escrow period while you wait for the bank to approve the transaction.  Our listings are ready to close, as soon as you are.

This website is one piece of a multi-faceted service commitment that combines personal, one-on-one attention with dynamic web and e-mail resources to deliver the most comprehensive and timely service to you.

It would be my honor to serve as your real estate agent. Let's get together to talk about your home buying and/or selling plans.  Call Paul Bourn, License #01166064 at 888-843-8456 or email at pbourne@bnrrealty.com. Call Lauri Preedge,  License # 00902883 at (949) 413-1307 or e-mail at  lpreedge@betterneighborhoods.net.   We'll set-up a time to meet that is easy and convenient for you.

We look forward to working with you!
