Real Estate Defintion – Loss Mitigation

August 13th, 2008 Jeffrey Posted in Real Estate Definitions 1 Comment »

Loss Mitigation – Loss Mitigation is a term used to describe a few different positions. The term is pretty much self defined. People who work in loss mitigation do their best to mitigate or minimize loss. This term can be used to describe a realtor or firm who mitigates the loss of a homeowner by negotiating a short sale. The term can also describe the department in a bank set up to minimize the loss on the bank’s behalf. These usually are the people you want to contact to talk about a short sale

Real Estate Defintion – Real Estate

July 30th, 2008 Jeffrey Posted in Real Estate Definitions 2 Comments »

I thought it would be interesting to define real estate for everyone. Give everyone a technical definition for real estate just in case some didn’t know. Real estate is by far one of the most to the point words you can look up in Real Estate. Real Estate according to dictionary.com is plain and simple, real property. when You click on the link for real property it gives you a slightly more detailed answer. It calls real property an estate or property consisting of lands and of all appurtenances to lands, as buildings, crops, or mineral rights.

So my conclusion for the techniocal definition of real estate is :

Real Estate = Real Property = an estate or property consisting of lands and of all appurtenances to lands

and we are done…

Once again, I hope you are having a great day. Thanks for reading!
