REO stands for Real Estate Owned and is the proper name for a property that the Bank now owns having gone through the foreclosure process or accepted the deed in lieu of foreclosure. You can treat a bank-owned property just like you would treat a normal sale between a seller and a buyer. The appeal of a bank-owned, REO property is that the price will tend to be at or below a very competitive market price. Further, an experienced Realtor will be able to negotiate on your behalf to secure the best possible price and the best possible terms. The lenders do not want to own property. Apart from the cost to foreclose the lenders have monthly maintenance expenses. They want to get properties off their books. If you’re looking for a REO property we have the experience to help you find a very good opportunity and negotiate an attractive settlement.
