Featured Topic: REOREO's are non performing assets that burden the books of banks as they are not set up to handle real estate. In the area of REOs, each bank and lender works differently, but all have similar goals - to get the best price possible and have no interest in dumping the real estate as cheaply as possible by using what is sometime an entire department at a bank that is set up to manage REO inventory. Being clear on exit financing allows the REO investor to define their price range and buy the same type of property over and over. With the currently low interest rates this is an optimum time to finance REO's for long term hold and cash flow. The majority of recent closed sales in Southern California are REO wholesale purchases. An educated, well researched offer can be profitable in almost any market but especially so in a down market with a glut of REO inventory. When buying REOs from a lender the investor must submit their offers on standard realtor forms. The banks do not like to see custom investor looking contracts. According to the National Association of Realtors, all but one state association's May 2009 membership totals trailed membership totals for May 2008, with 28 state associations experiencing a double-digit percentage drop in membership -- that trend has not held for all local and state Realtor associations, though. Many experienced investors make their inspection of an REO by looking through the windows and budgeting for the rooms they cannot see. This is not the most desirable method but will suffice when interior access is not possible. Many investors make the mistake of guesstimating market rents when trying to determine monthly cashflow on an REO purchase. HomePath Mortgage financing is available from a variety of lenders both local and national. REO buyers should be aware of the following FHA loan qualification guideline: Bankruptcy's must be at least two years old, with perfect credit since discharge. Remember that these guidelines are subject to change at anytime and you should stay abreast of current loan programs. Hire a buyer's agent who has experience working with REOs. A faster cash closing puts money into the REO lender's pocket sooner. There are also fewer things that can go wrong in a short escrow period. When a Property is sold through a foreclosure auction, do not draw any bidders & does not end in sale goes back to financial institution holding the Property. This type of property is often called as REO property or Bank Owned Homes. Many REO buyers select an area that they like, drive the streets and collect agent and property details off of the signs. In this regard they are able to touch and feel an area in a way that can't be done over the computer. Many REO experts are involved in wholesaling their REO homes. They will pass along a deal they found in as is condition to another buyer for a nominal fee. REO tip..When inspecting an REO look underneath kitchen and bathroom sinks for evidence of water damage and mold. Extensive damage or mold can mean a costly cabinet replacement and/or mold remediation. Buying a bank-owned or REO property may take an equal amount of time and angst, but the property will be vacant and easier to inspect. In fact, some banks will put a little money into prepping the home for a better sale for them: paint, handyman work, landscaping, etc. Homes are sold without guarantee because the bank has never lived in the home and is selling as-is. The REO option offers many more benefits and less stress than the foreclosure auction. |
