I would like to be able to buy a repossessed house to live in  within my local area but I have been unable to find any information about where they are advertised or sold locally or nationally.  Can you help

My first port of call would be contacting your bank. As banks are the one's who repossess, they should have a list. \n\nThere are a few companies who have their own lists - but you usually have to pay for this. \n\nGood luck.

Ours has been discharged now for about a year and a half and we are in the process of purchasing a 4 bdr, 2bth home. So far we have the home but are now looking for a piece of land to put it on. All we had to do was show proof of discharge and what all was paid off in it. Since you have no money to put down I would check around and find out what ya had to have down. If you had to have a down payment I would try to get a co-signer, or look into FHA, HUD or Section 8 or any Government loan programs to see if I could get help from any of them. Good luck and wish ya the best..... :0)

That does sound suspicious.  Perhaps there are construction problems that make it illegal for the houses to be sold yet.  Or perhaps the builder is in bankruptcy court or something, or a lawsuit, or...who knows what.  Anyway, I'd look toward a different location for now.\n\nYou shouldn't have much problem finding something in this market.  It's a buyers market now, so feel free to make offers below asking price.  \n\n(and if you're looking in Columbus, Ohio, I have a home I need to sell...let me know if you might be interested.)

you can google for tax reposessions, it will sort them according to state. There are usually onle a few auctions per year, while they are open to the public they are not highly advertised. A lot of websites will charge you money to the information, as long as you have a credible site you should be safe. \n\nalso, a good real estate agent and help you find listsings to HUD houses. those are forclosures.

You can advertise on Homestore.com or similar sites. Link to your own website.  Get a farm list of non-owner occupied homes (call your local title co. rep) - send direct mail to those tenants/occupants - maybe they'd like to own their own home instead of paying the landlord's mortgage?

Contact fannie mae (www.efanniemae.com)  they have recently added some programs for their MyCommunityMortgage thing that is meant to help people like yall.  I work at a mortgage company and we have been able to get people in homes when they had bad/nocredit no savings no down payment no assests. Youd be surprised what you can get if you go through the right lender. good luck!!!

Its not on www.rightmove.co.uk, but it may be a private sale.\nHe shouldn't be able to sell it without your permission though, if you are joint owner.

You don't say what State you are in or looking to buy in.\n\nI'm guessing you are talking about bidding on the house at the foreclosure sale.\n\n Foreclosure sales are published in the legal notice of Newspaper\n\n1. Bidding- There are 3 types of bids\n    Total Debt- This the total amount due on the house including fees/cost etc.\n     Specified Bid- A percentage of the Total Debt Bid\n     Range Bid (if applicable in that state)- Lender has the chance to place mulitple bids \n\n2. Contact the attorney who is handling the foreclosure sale- don't go thru the Sheriff-  Ask what if there is an opening bid available yet- sometimes they don't get them from the lender until the day of the sale.  Ask their sale requirments- if cashier's check is due that day or if they have " X" amount of days.\nRemember they are very limited on what they can release to you.  Be nice- they are not always obligated to release even the bid to you.\n\n3. If it's money is due at the time of the sale go get a cashier's check for the highest amount you want to pay. \n   Or atleast be have a letter of credit from our back\n\n4. Bidding is pretty fast \n\n5. Not all states have redemption rights. If not you are the owner when the Deed is recorded. \n\n6.  You will be responsible for eviction \n\nAgain the title issues  vary state by state. \n2nd mortgages and other liens may be wiped out at the time of sale \n\nYou may be responsible for back taxes, some lenders will pay them and include them in their bid\n\nJust remember you are buying as is.

This sounds like time-shares. Personally I would never buy property in a foreign country let alone with a group of people.  Unless you have money to throw away. Remember, if it sounds too good to be true, most likely it is. And if living cheaply is what you're looking for, there are many places right here in the good USA where you can do that. Or if living in a third-world country is appealing to you, that too we offer---Try Mississippi, Alabama,  Oklahoma, New Mexico, Los Angeles and New york city.

I'm assuming you want to ask your local bank if they have any houses in foreclosure you can buy.  Best way to find out about that is to get a foreclosure list.  (Ask your local title company)  It will show what houses are going into foreclosure and where they will be up for auction.

You should try to contact the land registry at \n\nwww.landregisteronline.gov.uk\n\nYou can also visit www.housepricecrash.co.uk, which has links to various sites about house prices.\n\nGood luck!

When I lived in Brancaster (a small village in Norfolk) the housing association built some "affordable" housing under the Shared Ownership scheme.  \n\nWhen I looked into it a bit further I wasn't impressed.  The idea was you bought a share of the house and rented the remainder from the Housing Association - not a bad idea really but then I found out that you are responsible 100% for any repairs that occur.  Not only that but the most you could own was 80% of the house and if you wanted to sell it on you had to find a buyer willing to take on the same committment.\n\nIn the end I decided to just rent.  There is always a risk that you could have your lease terminated but if there was a major repair to be done at least you are not responsible for it!!\n\nHope this helps!

My house has been on the market in Michigan for 1 1/2 yrs. I don't anticipate it selling any time soon as the market in this area is very slow right now. We just dropped the price $10,000 (it was already priced below appraisal) and still no nibbles. The only offers we have had were between 40,000 and 50,000 below the asking price (even after the price drop). Even at what we are asking now it is more than a bargain (it's a newer build on 10 acres). I am trying to talk my ex into letting me list it myself (it was written into the separation agreement that a certain realtor had to list it) so that I can drop the price another couple of thousand but still walk away without owing money on it.

have you checked on prior sales and similar homes currently on the market in your area?  That would be the first place to start....

I don't know your city or the traditions there. But I would advise you to think about this question from the point of view of a potential renter.  If you wanted to rent a house like yours, where would you look?  Are there newspapers that people find advertisements in typically? Can you put a "For Rent" sign on the house? Is there a large employer nearby that helps its employees find housing?  Are there universities nearby that bring many students in from other cities?  If so, they may also need to rent space.  Finally, I have also learned that I can often find tenants just from word-of-mouth.  I mention the opportunity to my friends, and tell them to mention it to anyone they know who is seeking a rental.  I have had luck in renting this way more than once.\n\nAfter that, you simply need to decide on the terms of your rental agreement, and determine the legal documentation (if any) that is needed in your community.\n\nBest of luck to you.
