REO listing agents make money by either selling a lot of REOs or operating as a dual agent.

Yet, REO banks typically will not authorize repairs prior to closing. Then, toss into the mix that bank repo buyers rarely want to pay for repairs before they own the home.

REO Part II: Banks have departments that must maintain these homes, keep the lights on and keep the taxes paid. Banks cannot legally sell real estate directly to the public, so they enlist the services of a real estate broker to list the home for sale.

The foreclosure auction is different than an REO property. |
