Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. There are many cash buyers looking for foreclosed properties in the market, so competition is typically fierce.
Buying a foreclosure anywhere has risk. The biggest risk is that the home needs more work than a buyer anticipates. These homes are sold as-is, so buyers can not expect the bank to make any repairs.
“Cash is king” with foreclosures, so having funds available to close quickly is imperative. IF you are planning to finance, have a lender pre-approval letter ready to go. Getting a home inspection is important, and speak with the owners of homes that surround the property to understand more about the property history.
