Featured Topic: REOREO listing agents have some degree of influence over the banks asset manager and like to work with investors who have done there research and due diligence. An REO (Real Estate Owned) is a property that goes back to the mortgage company after an unsuccessful foreclosure auction. Real estate owned or REO is a class of property owned by a lender, typically a bank, after an unsuccessful sale at a foreclosure auction. There are multiple sources of funding currently available to investors purchasing REO's in Southern California. Unlike a traditional purchase an REO buy is as is and the seller will require many disclosures to be signed that absolve them of liability. the buyer must exercise great care in analyzing their purchase. Many REO investors rely on the opinions of inexperienced buyers agents to formulate their offers. These agents are often desperate to make a sale and do not understand market value or cash flow analysis. In many cases, the list price of an REOhas little bearing on the value of the home. The market value carries the most weight. If you are up against competing offers, other buyers will offer more than list price. Due to high opening bid prices most homes do not sell at the trustee sale and go back to the banks, becoming REOs. REO investors must visually inspect houses for the structural integrity of major components such as the foundation, roof, walls, plumbing and electrical. The bank will not take responsibility for the investors mistakes. It is important to understand the local economy in your area when considering cash flow over a longer period of time. HomePath Mortgage Financing is available on Fannie Mae homes and there is no mortgage insurance. Fannie Mae wants to be sure that prospective REO buyers will be able to complete the sales transaction, including obtaining financing when needed. Pre qualification allows you to see how much house you can afford and the mortgage amount you may be able to qualify for before you make an offer on a home. It also helps you focus on homes in an affordable price range. The bank may ask for you to submit a loan application so it can prequalify you for an REO, however, you are not obligated to obtain your loan from that bank. An REO property has been foreclosed by the lending institution, and has reverted to their ownership. This is not how the bank wants foreclosures to end. In most cases, the market value of the home simply does not cover the loan balance, repair costs, and other fees associated with foreclosure and sale. You should check market prices for homes in your region and calculate the cost and repair time, before deciding that an REO property is a good deal. The REO warranty Home Protect will cover electrical, plumbing, air conditioning and heating systems, as well as ductwork and many major appliances. Freddie Mac will pay for the first two years of the warranty after which buyers will have an option to continue the warranty on their own. Many REO buyers are using current market rents to establish a buy price. This model is similar to a commercial real estates buyers approach. REO: this is an acronym for Real Estate Owned, and this used to be called the bank department that managed the properties the bank had reacquired through a foreclosure process at the court house steps. Short Sale versus REO: Big difference! If you make an offer on a home that is potentially a short sale, you will work with the seller and the bank, with the bank (or banks) being ultimately the decision maker on your deal. Because of all the unknowns and requirements with foreclosure auctions many people prefer buying an REO. |
