Discounted Pricing of Foreclosed Homes

When a homeowner continues to default in making her mortgage payments, the lender takes recourse to legally foreclosing or seizing the property in question. The foreclosing authority could variously be HUD, VA, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, Sheriff, or banks. Indeed, banks comprise the predominant category that is seizing homes all over the US. Since the seizing bodies are not real estate players per se, the foreclosed homes merely represent their NPAs or nonperforming assets. They are, therefore, naturally keen to convert such REO or real estate owned into liquid assets. Property auctions enable them finding a buyer with ease.

Moreover, since such seized homes already have had varying mortgage payments made towards them, the auctioneer only seeks to recover the pending loan amounts from the auction of the seized homes. This translates into a boon for potential buyers, who get the rare opportunity of purchasing splendid homes in classy colonies in fast-growing cities at frequently half their usual market prices. No wonder the foreclosure auctions have been drawing huge crowds of intending buyers in cities across the US.
