Tax Foreclosure Homes List

Question: Foreclosure homes are cheap at they said???

Hi, I was looking at yahoo for some houses in my state, so I found some information about REO homes, but for example, there are many prices, are prices listed there from $3,000 to 3,000,000 so, cause I don't know how this works, I wonder if a REO home said that the price is $5,000, that is the real sale price?? that is the only price that I need to pay for the house??? or there is the basic price or what??? Do I need to pay something else (besides insurance and taxes????) I 'm very confused.

Thanks.

Answer: First of all if you are looking at HUD homes (foreclosed FHA homes) you can only buy them threw a Realtor. HUD does not sell homes directly to the public.

Now for a little education on Foreclosures. Before they go for sale on the open market they have to be sold at a local Sheriff sale. This is the process the mortgage company takes possession of the home for non payment. The really good deals usually don't make it past the sheriff sales. Remember, just because something is really cheep does not mean it is a good deal. Location, Location, Location makes a good deal if the price is right.

I can make this really easy for you. Get yourself a Realtor that you are comfortable with and stick with them. They are educated, licensed and insured to assist you and they are absolutely free to you. A good Realtor can answer or get the answer to any of your questions. Just remember not to get on realtors black list by jumping from one to the other. They only get paid when you go to a closing and the word gets out when you work with more than one realtor at a time.

If you would like a referral free of charge to a good Realtor in your area please feel free to contact me.

You could also go to Realtor.com and take your chances of finding one on your own.

Good luck,

Free Hud Foreclosure List

Question: Does anyone know how to get a free foreclosure list?

Not the free trial and the hud ones

Answer: In order to proceed with a foreclosure, a lender has to provide a public notice - usually in the newspaper classifieds under the "legal notices" section. A consolidated list of pending foreclosures can also often be found with the trustee's office, or with the sheriff's office (depending on which office handles foreclosures in your particular state). The information is also usually freely available on the websites of the public official who handles the foreclosures.

You can also attend a foreclosure sale (again, find one in the newspaper) and ask the person conducting it where to find a comprehensive list of foreclosures for the county you're in.

Just beware - Finding the foreclosures is the easy part. The hard part is doing the title work. Many new investors get burned buying what the "think" is the first and only mortgage on the property. Make sure you know what you're buying by asking a title company to do an "O&E" (ownership and encumbrance) report for you. They'll usually do it for free if they think you'll later do business with them.
