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. 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. Many times homeowners get in over their heads when it comes to purchasing a new home. If they have taken out a loan from the bank and are unable to make their payments their home will be turned over to the bank. From there the bank will place the property on the market for auction or sell. These types of properties immediately become REO Properties and are generally a steal to catch. Buying, renting and holding REO properties now will create a number of options for the investor in the years to come. REO buyers must prove themselves to be dependable and trustworthy to REO listing agents to gain an inside advantage and develop a long term business relationship. Many of the currently low priced REO's that look good on paper are in fact non conforming and have many bad features such as undesirable configurations, small square footage, border noisy streets or have bad add ons. If there are no offers on the REO home, you can probably offer less than list price and get your offer accepted. However, if there are more than two offers, you will most likely need to offer above the asking price. A vacant REO only depreciates in value and is a liability on a banks ledger sheet. Repeat vandalism may cause a bank to lower price on an REO listing. It also may be a caution to the investor about the neighborhood. It is important to be mindful of potential holding costs when calculating monthly cash flow on an REO purchases. When buying a Fannie Mae owned REO, you should know the condition of the property, the cost of any needed repairs, and the steps in the loan qualification and closing process before you enter into a purchase and sales agreement. REO buyers, don't rule yourself out of qualifying for FHA loan to buy a home or refinance your existing mortgage because of credit issues until a mortgage professional has reviewed your credit. Some REO Homes do not qualify for conventional financing. Mortgage underwriters may turn down a loan from an otherwise qualified buyer if the property requires too much work to meet health and safety codes. A conventional buyer's offer with 20% down, however, will typically beat out an offer from a buyer obtaining an FHA loan. Almost any REO Property you look at will have room for improvement. But the more that needs to be done to a home, the less you’re going to have to pay for it. One of the best advantages of buying REO properties is most of the REO property is below market value. Another advantage is REO properties is very easy to find, banks have a number of them and will love to sell them. While REO investors are underbidding on many foreclosure properties, Christopher Thornberg, a principal at Beacon Economics in Los Angeles, said that interest is coming from “vulture funds” with millions of dollars to spend on distress sales. Thornberg said Wall Street vulture funds are amassing war chests in preparation for a new cycle of opportunities in loans or bonds of struggling financial companies or homebuilders. It is good to see a neighborhood at different times of of day. A quiet street at noon can be a war zone at night. This reality will be encountered by your renter and can affect rent amount and vacancy rates. The current REO market in southern California has shown a recent drop in inventory and that has created a price increase. What are the benefits of buying an REO property that has been foreclosed on and what are the reasons they failed to find a buyer? REOs are properties that the lender has failed to sell at auction. At this point, since the home has gone back to the lender, the mortgage no longer exists. |
