How to Buy a Forclosed Home

Posted on September 2, 2013January 14, 2021

Bank owned reo properties

If you are wondering how to buy a forclosed home, there are professional real estate and investment personnel available to help you. How to buy a forclosed home is relatively straightforward, but, like any market, it can take some assistance and experience before you can make quick decisions and thrive in it. Property “flipping”, or the rapid trading of real estate (often after doing some basic repairs and improvements), has become a popular means of making money in recent years.

Bank owned homes for sale are often where forclosure purchasers get their properties. Forclosed homes are also known as Real Estate Owned, or REO, properties. REO properties are forclosed on by the bank holding the previous owner’s mortgage for failure to pay. Usually, the amount of the loans owed by the forclosee exceed the property’s value. Often, no bids for the home are entered at a sale, so the bank takes possession, making it an “REO” property. In part because bids are few and far between, it is easy to get these properties well below their market value. They can sell for as little as 40% below their actual value. Also, banks frequently sell them “as is” to move them as fast as possible, further contributing to their low prices. Buying bank owned property, or buying REO homes, can yield high returns for investor purchasers of real estate. REO properties are for sale basically anywhere because there are always people defaulting on loans. REO property listings can help you to find opportunities near you.

Bank listings, real estate auctions, and other similar ways of selling foreclosed homes are good, general ways to find out how to buy a forclosed home. Talking to a bank directly can be another way of how to buy a forclosed home. Like any investment, do your background research before getting involved, consult professionals as needed, and understand that profit is not guaranteed and that loss is a possibility.
