subject: Realtors Market HUD Homes on Craigslist [print this page] HUD Homes are previous FHA foreclosures that are now owned by HUD. They are open listings in Real Estate Terms. Open Listings are not exclusive and may be marketed openly. Because of this, Realtors can use advanced marketing tools and effort to create buyer leads. Video is a big part of the process. But very little compares to the power of Craigslist to market HUD Owned Homes. There are a couple of secrets to effectively optimizing your Craigslist Time. These tips can be found in the Distressed Property Network training and tools available from Tyler Morton and Scott Harris.
