Featured Topic: REOREO's are non performing assets that burden the books of banks as they are not set up to handle real estate. 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. Cash is preferred by the banks on REO offers because the escrow period is shorter. The bank will want to see proof of funds submitted with the offer. Positve cash flow is attained when the monthly collected rent minus expense exceeds the mortgage payment. REO listings are currently receiving multiple offers and being bid up above list price REO investors must develop a method of appraising current market value and after repaired value on the homes they offer on. It's not unusual for some REO homes in Southern California to receive 15 or 20 offers. Sometimes the bank will throw out all but two offers and then ask the selected buyers to resubmit what is called "Highest and Final" offer. It is common to see holes beat into the drywall of REO homes. 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. Local unemployment stats should be factored in when determining cash flow on an REO property. HomePath Mortgage Financing is available on Fannie Mae homes and is available to both owner occupiers and investors. FHA will look mostly at the last two years of your credit history of REO buyers. If there are some credit issues, we may be able to overcome them with sufficient explanations and supporting documents of why the issues occurred. Following is some the the reasons FHA will accept: Loss of Job, Job Transfer or Serious Illness. 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. An REO property has been foreclosed by the lending institution, and has reverted to their ownership. This is not how the bank wants foreclosures to end. In most cases, the market value of the home simply does not cover the loan balance, repair costs, and other fees associated with foreclosure and sale. An REO house becomes the property of the lender (usually a bank), and needs to be sold as soon as possible. Ask a group of real estate millionaires how they made their money and most will recite some version of this axiom When everyone zigs, you zag. In today’s downward real estate market the axiom simply translates into buying property when most others are not and that’s exactly what REO buyers in Southern California are doing. In a down market loaded with opportunity, investors should focus on having a successful first project not buying the cheapest house. A good first experience will lead to multiple purchases and ultimately wealth when the up cycle occurs. 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 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. 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. If you've been looking at foreclosures but are unsure whether you want to risk your money on a property you can't inspect or know what might be hidden behind the low price, you might want to consider a real estate owned property. Real estate owned (REO) properties can be a better option for people who want to have all the information before deciding to buy. |
