Foreclosure Bargains: three things you must do

Friday August 8, 2008

In 2003 one could point to any piece of real estate, buy it for the asking price and make money by reselling it a year later. In this market, the rules have changed.

In the CNN Money article on how to buy a foreclosure, the discussion is about the three stages of the foreclosure process where one can get the best deal.

The bottom line is that now is a great time to buy real estate, but you have to be ready to do business.
1. You must be pre-approved by a lender, not just pre-qualified.
2. You must have a very firm grasp of the values in the area you want to buy.
3. You have to know about the title status of a property.
