Featured Topic: REOREO agents need to submit an offer along with a buyer package that may include deposit and proof of funds to the bank. In an REO situation, the bank will handle eviction of the defaulted prior owner, if necessary, and may do some repairs. 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). There are multiple sources of funding currently available to investors purchasing REO's in Southern California. Many novice investors make offers that get accepted by the bank but they rescind their offer when they realize that they did not do enough homework on the property and major repairs are needed. Many REO investors rely on the opinions of inexperienced buyers agents to formulate their offers. These agents are often desperate to make a sale and do not understand market value or cash flow analysis. Investor sshould exercise caution and avoid overestimating the value of an REO property. REO vs Short Sale. A home owner in foreclosure may be working on a short sale, loan mod and other options simultaneously to delay their foreclosure sale date. An REO property belongs to the bank and is available for purchase the day it is listed. Dead grass and landscaping are targets for citations from code enforcement on REO held property. As a short-term real estate investor, you need a very easy-to-use tool that will quickly calculate cash flow, profit, a budget, and the investment return for a potential flip. HomePath Mortgage financing is available from a variety of lenders both local and national. FHA would typically require that any outstanding collection accounts, judgments, charge offs be paid off in full before closing your loan but not necessarily before approving your loan on an REO. Banks negotiate bulk-rate discounts with title and escrow companies. If you elect to use the bank's title escrow company, check the fees those companies will charge you. Generally, fees not paid by the bank but paid by the buyer will be higher because title and escrow often make up those discounts by charging buyers more. 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. As rigid as REO properties or HUD homes may seem, the REO process is as much as part of foreclosures as the preforeclosure side of the business. Many REO investors are doing their work by desktop, that is, on the computer and never really get out into the field. This is a sure way to make mistakes that will hurt later. Many of the successful REO buyers are leveraging relationships with REO listing agents and buying inventory that is not on the MLS. Many REO investors do not realize the large number of homes that have gone back to banks but remain unlisted will eventually hit the market and have an impact on price. 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? Under the rules of foreclosure a bank or lender takes control of a property due to the inability of the borrower to make loan payments. The REO option offers many more benefits and less stress than the foreclosure auction. |
