Investors who are not clear on their exit financing are much slower to decide on their offer numbers and get beat out by more experienced buyers. With the currently low interest rates this is an optimum time to finance REO's for long term hold and cash flow. It is important that REO buyers have a realistic idea of what repairs will cost on the houses they offer on. 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 an REO is HUD or VA owned, the offer will need to be on special forms. The agent representing you will have the original forms that your need. According to the National Association of Realtors, all but one state association's May 2009 membership totals trailed membership totals for May 2008, with 28 state associations experiencing a double-digit percentage drop in membership -- that trend has not held for all local and state Realtor associations, though.

Many banks are moving away from paying typical closing costs for the buyer on REO. Some fees such as transfer taxes, county and state fees, are borne by the buyer and not the bank. Banks do not often pay for pest reports, repairs or home warranty plans. Buyers with all cash are REO lenders' favorite purchasers. A list-price all-cash offer will beat out a conventional offer, even if the conventional offer is above list price. If the listing's conditions state "cash buyers only," it is unlikely the bank will consider an offer from any buyer who is relying on financing. Usually the Bank won’t accept an offer directly from you. Banks accept offers only from a real estate agent or broker.

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.

REOs are a safer method of buying a home than foreclosures and short sales, but you might be paying more than you bargained for and be faced with repairs and replacements. |
