WHAT’S IT LIKE?

Buying an REO (Real Estate Owned)/Foreclosure.  You, the buyer, are usually buying the property “As-Is”.  This does not mean you can not investigate the condition of the property.  You should have all inspections done, as you would on any other home.  You need to know what exactly you are buying. 

Be prepared to pay for the inspections up front,  yourself.  There are some banks/lenders (sellers) that will credit the buyer back , for those inspections  paid by the  buyer, at close of escrow.  Most inspectors are requiring payment  when services are rendered.     Your real estate agent should be able to furnish a list of possible inspectors.
