Bank Owned REO Homes for Sale: This is an area in the current market place that I think can have tremendous opportunities for buyers. These properties have gone through the foreclosure process and are now owned by the bank alone. The banks traditionally don't like to own these homes because it ties up money that they could be using to lend. Usually offers on bank owned homes for sale are responded to quickly and you don't have the time of waiting around for months to hear back like you do with short sales. Here are some important bullet points about Bank Owned REO Homes for Sale:
- In most cases you can use traditional financing on these properties just like you would with buying a Resale or New Home.
- You can also inspect the property thoroughly up front and have appraisals, termite inspections, home inspections, etc, performed in advance before closing.
- You can buy title insurance. Unlike with foreclosure auctions, Bank owned homes for sale allow you to protect yourself and buy the property with clean title.
- The last owner or tenants have already been evicted and the properties are vacant.
- The banks are motivated to sell.
I believe that in many cases bank owned REO Homes for Sale are just as good of a deal as Short Sales or Foreclosure Auctions. It still comes back to your personal situation and your risk tolerance for what is right for you. If you are looking at this as an investment, but its also a home that you and your family are going to live in, than I would suggest a bank owned REO home, a Resale home, or potentially even a short sale. If you are a saavy investor, you don't plan on living in the home, and you have a higher risk tolerance, than maybe buying at the Foreclosure Auction is the solution for you. Either way, we can help you make that decision easier for you.

More than half of my inspections in 2009 were vacant foreclosures. This year I’m doing more inspections but only about 25% are vacant foreclosures.
