When a lender forecloses on an FHA loan the property will eventually be sold by HUD.
These foreclosures are an excellent opportunity to buy a home at below market prices.
The HUD purchase process is simple . You will need to work with a HUD approved Real Estate Broker (I am one).
You can view the foreclosure list on-line and then see them with your chosen HUD broker.
Bids are done on-line, proof of funds and a deposit check are required at time of offer.
If accepted , you have 45 days to close.
These homes are usually in rough shape and utilities are off. They are best purchased with cash.
I have sold many HUD homes and would be glad to answer any questions you may have.
