Added Benefits Of Bank Owned Foreclosures

Bank owned forclosures are properties which have been repossessed due to a defaulted mortgage

. Banks and financial institutions sell these homes sometimes at good discounts to earn back the money lost on the loans. Savings are the main benefit of bank owned forclosures, but these types of repo homes have fringe benefits as well. For example, pricing on these homes can be flexible. Banks and other financial companies are answerable to shareholders and for this reason banks are often especially eager to get rid of foreclosed real estate quickly. After a home has been on a foreclosure list for a while and before shareholders need to be informed about non-performing assets, buyers will find that banks are often willing to negotiate price on foreclosure homes.

In addition to low and flexible costs, REO properties also can mean easy financing. Banks make their money through loans and if you need financing on a foreclosure the bank is selling, the bank is very eager for your business. In fact, your business can make up for the money the bank may have lost on the defaulted home loan on the foreclosure. As a result, banks are sometimes willing to offer great rates or good terms to buyers who buy their foreclosed homes.

REO real estate is also very easy to buy. Unlike other foreclosures, which require you to bid in an auction or buy a property sight unseen, most repo homes sold by banks are sold through a real estate agent. This means that you can tour bank owned forclosures, get assessors and inspectors to look the property over, and buy the property just as you would a traditional (full priced) home.
