Foreclosure homes are alluring to both real estate investors and first-time home buyers. These distressed properties are oftentimes sold below market value and can yield a tidy profit or provide a wonderful residence. However, if you have never invested in distressed properties it is crucial to understand the pros and cons of this type of real estate investment.

It's extremely rare to find foreclosure homes in perfect condition. More often than not, considerable repairs and renovations are required to get the house back to livable condition. You will either need to engage in physical labor or hire contractors to do the work for you. Either way can add considerable cost to the price of the property.

When purchasing foreclosure homes it is best to work with a realtor or private real estate investor who specializes in distressed properties. Working with a foreclosure homes specialist can provide you with greater bargaining power and obtain additional benefits such as reduced closing costs or a lower purchase price.

There are four ways to purchase foreclosure homes:

1. Purchase the property at a foreclosure auction
2. Buy directly from the seller
3. Hire a real estate firm to bid on foreclosure homes on your behalf
4. Work with an REO (real estate owned) or foreclosure specialist

If you do not have the ability to pay cash for foreclosure homes, it's best to obtain pre-qualified financing before looking at distressed properties. This will ensure you will have money in hand when you find a good deal and provide you with extra leverage when you're ready to make an offer.

Realtors and REO specialists have access to multiple foreclosure homes. Using their services can help you locate distressed properties more efficiently than if you search for them on your own. Many specialize in bank owned foreclosure homes and help you avoid the hassles associated with purchasing from foreclosure auctions. Real estate specialists can help you quickly locate a house in the area where you wish to reside or purchase investment property.

If you decide to purchase foreclosure homes without the assistance of real estate specialists be certain to do your homework. Thoroughly investigate the area to determine the market value of other homes and anticipated property value growth. If you have school-aged children or plan to rent the property to families with children, check for availability of public or private schools in the area.

After completing your research, compile a list of foreclosure homes you are interested in. When working with a Realtor, your agent will make viewing appointments on your behalf. When working on your own, you will be required to contact the seller to arrange an appointment.

Take a pen and pad of paper, video or digital camera so you can document potential problems, repairs and renovations. Check the house from top to bottom and make note of any structural damage, plumbing or heating issues, termites, rodents and other common problems.

When investing in foreclosure homes the more problems you can find, the better your bargaining power. Take time to thoroughly investigate the house and document damage before making an offer. Doing so could potentially save you thousands of dollars.

Although it can be tempting to purchase low-priced foreclosure homes, it might not be the best deal. If the house requires extensive renovation it can cost considerably more than purchasing a foreclosure home that requires few repairs, but has a higher price tag.

Last, but not least, be certain to determine if there are any liens against the property. Foreclosure homes sold at auction oftentimes have numerous liens attached to them, while bank owned foreclosures usually have a clean title. Creditor and tax liens can be a huge legal hassle that consumes a great deal of time and money to resolve. Take time to engage in due diligence before placing an offer or it could end up costing much more than you expected.
