Featured Topic: REOIt is common for a few veteran and experienced agents to control a majority of REO listings in an area. In order to bid at a foreclosure auction, you must have a cashier's check in your hand for the full amount of your bid. In a REO situation, a bank will typically set the opening bid at a foreclosure auction for at least the outstanding loan amount and, if there are no bidders that are interested, then the bank will legally repossess the property, and as soon as the bank repossess the property, it is listed on their books as REO (Real Estate Owned) and is categorized as an asset (non-performing). The current REO inventory holds many opportunities to create a monthly cash flow on Southern California rental homes. Agents who have REO listings that don't sell will often see the listing expire and have the listing assigned to another agent. Even professional appraisers are struggling with determining property values as the REO inventory levels are skewing the current sales data. Sometimes banks will pay for repairs on REOs, but typically will not agree to do so at the offer stage. If there are problems found during a home inspection, renegotiate after your offer has been accepted. REO VS SHORT SALE. A investor who has a short sale agreement with home owner has no competition but must convince the bank of the homes value. An REO investor must compete with other buyers who may have different perceptions of the properties worth. Investors wanting to buy and hold section 8 properties must improve the property to comply with section 8 inspection guidelines. Some of the most successful buy and hold investors repair their properties to high standard and rent at sightly below market. This allows them to find and retain renters who have an interest in keeping and maintaining their houses for a long period of time. Home Path Renovation Mortgage Financing is special financing on Fannie Mae homes an offers low down payment and flexible mortgage terms, fixed-rate or adjustable-rate. REO buyers should be aware of the following basic FHA loan qualification guideline: Your new mortgage payment should be approximately 30% of your gross (before taxes) income. Remember that these guidelines are subject to change at anytime and you should stay abreast of current loan programs. REO listing agents generally represent the seller, not the buyer. Many are in fine neighborhoods and offer outstanding values. And while some REO homes do qualify as handyman specials, many are in very good condition. Each lender has its own procedure for the sale of REO homes. So once you have identified a property, check out the procedure of the bank which is selling the REO property. The competition and short time on the market before and REO goes pending has many REO buyers feeling discouraged. But many of these escrows will not close and the REO house will be back on the market. Many investors would like to get into the REO market but do not have the time to do the negotiation, repair and rental tasks that are required. A third party REO expert can be a great help in this process and can deliver excellent home for a small fee. 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. The process starts with the notice of default filed and, in California, ends with a trustee's sale back to the lender (if no one else buys the property on the county courthouse steps). A common misconception is that foreclosures and REOs are the same. Although they are similar they are in fact different with the REO being the direct result of a foreclosure option sale. Once the foreclosure has been initiated the bank or loan company legally has the right to sell the property regardless of whether the owners have moved out or not. The foreclosure auction is different than an REO property. |
