Mike S asked:


I have found some houses that are currently bank owned (I assume a REO). I have found these through a site that lists pre-foreclosures, foreclosed houses up for auctions, and bank owned properties…
But it won’t list the address, or anything about when the auctions are, and I have no idea who to contact if I am interested in this house without paying for the service. Are these records listed for free anywhere? Can I go to the cityhall of the city the house is in? Do I have to go to each bank to find it out?

How much money must a bank set aside for each REO?

dlowe_2008 asked:


I am doing a project on real estate foreclosures. An important question for me, is the motivation for lenders to NOT take back foreclosure as REO, but to sell prior. One reason would be the requirement that that a bank must have X number of times of the asset value (home value) in reserves and out of its lending budget. Is this true and if so, how much is the X?

I am looking to purchase a home but would like to save some cash. I thought a REO would be the way to go but having a hard time finding a concrete list for my city and state, especially the kind that includes all of the banks. Going from website to website is a pain.

How much should I bid on an REO and what should I expect?

Amy H asked:


So I found a great REO priced below market. It was bid on after being on the market only a week. It fell out of escrow because the buyers got cold feet. Now it’s up for sale again, and according to the listing agent he has several full-priced offers. How do I know if this agent is blowing smoke or not? Is there a formula for how much under you can bid on an REO? Is there any way of knowing how much that original bid was for?

How much to offer for an REO home?

S P asked:


House is listed for $204K. The house needs some work done to it, very obvious from looking at it(exterior and interior). How low can you make an offer considering it needs work done to it and is being sold “as is”? Home is in a nice area definitely not up to par as others in the area. Do you think offering 170,000-175,000 is too low of an offer?
