Real estate owned or REO is a class of property owned by a lender, typically a bank, after an unsuccessful sale at a foreclosure auction. Investors who purchased REO's during the down turn of the early 1990's realized huge cashflow and equity gains.

Buying well researched and identified cash flow REO homes now will create a solid portfolio that will provide great cash flow and equity appreciation in the future.

Many REO buyers are using current market rents to establish a buy price. This model is similar to a commercial real estates buyers approach. REO tip...REO homes usually have no water service on, you may want to look up in the attic for any broken pipes or mold damage and check the interior walls and ceiling structures for water damage. If the house does not sell in the auction, it reverts back to the bank. The lender now has the right to sell the property as an REO (real estate owned), the third and final phase of a foreclosure. The REO option offers many more benefits and less stress than the foreclosure auction. When a bank takes back a property they then have the property listed as a salable asset on their books. The role of a bank is to maximize the wealth for it's shareholders. |
