Featured Topic: REOInvestors who are able to buy, rent and cash flow with REO homes now will realize a great passive income in the future. Once you make an offer to purchase a REO, banks generally present a counter-offer that may be at a higher price than you expect, but they have to demonstrate to investors, shareholders and auditors that they attempted to get the highest price possible and you should definitely plan to counter the counter-offer. Fannie Mae guidelines allow investors to buy up to 10 investment properties. This is an excellent opportunity to build a portfolio of cash flow REO houses. Buying, renting and holding REO properties now will create a number of options for the investor in the years to come. Agents who have REO listings that don't sell will often see the listing expire and have the listing assigned to another agent. Many REO investors are sitting on their hands waiting to see how government legislation will effect REO inventory in the coming months before they make any offers. If other buyers ask for 17 days on an REO, for example, to conduct inspections, and you ask for 10, you will be deemed the more serious buyer. Many of the poor condition and damage issues associated with REO homes is due to the homeower taking out their anger on the property. Many REO homes have not had water service for a long period of time and will require a complete landscaping job. Giving the current state of our economy, factoring a decline in rents over the next few years is a good idea when calculating cash flow. Home Path Renovation Mortgage Financing is special financing on Fannie Mae homes an offers financing to fund both your purchase and light renovation. Fannie Mae will not accept REO offers contingent on the sale of your current home. Other types of contingencies will be considered on a case-by-case basis. If the bank won't budge and you receive an offer rejection, wait another 7 to 30 days and then resubmit your original offer, with the original date crossed off and your new date inserted. The US Department of Housing and Urban Development's REO properties are a result of FHA paying a claim to a lending institution on a foreclosed property which was financed with FHA Insured Mortgage and the lender transferring ownership of the property to HUD. If you need a loan get your loan application not only pre-approval or pre-qualified but underwritten also. The Home Steps REO warranty is available only on single-family HomeSteps homes. The home must be sold as primary residence for at least $25,000 in the 48 contiguous states or Washington, D.C. The warranty and closing cost opportunities are not available on HomeSteps homes sold as investor properties, second homes, or vacation homes. It is important to consider quality when buying an REO in this market. A quality home in a quality area in good condition will produce a higher quality renter and improve vacancy rates, cash flow and appreciation over time. This may be more costly initially and take more work to find but will pay dividends at the end of the cycle. REO tip....Take note of the condition of the top sold comps in your area and try to estimate your repairs to the market standard. Over repairing can eat away at profits and under repairing can take your property out of consideration for top buyers. An REO is a property that has been foreclosed on and has reverted back to the ownership of the bank or lender. We expect REO activity to spike in the coming months as foreclosure delays and moratoria implemented by various state laws come to an end |
