Does anyone know of any TRUE real estate and foreclosure sites?
Question:
Answer:
It's right on the steps of the courthouse. Usually on Thursdays. After that, it's like stepped-on Perfume. Cut to the point of no return and costs skyrocketing.
You have to get the attorneys before someone else does. Every forclosure site is a scam. Why would someone with money tell you about something desireable that could make tons of money? Because they're nice? Not a chance. They would buy the house themselves instead of trying to make money on subscriptions, memberships and affiliations for their website.
Check the classified/real estate sections of your paper. In most states, foreclosure sales are required by law to be advertised usually for 2-4 weeks in advance.
There are bunches out there but the two main ones are Foreclosures.com and Realty Tract and they both charge. If you are looking for foreclosures by the Government here are some sites that might help you out.

The VAST majority of foreclosures by lenders are placed with real estate firms for disposition. My firm deals extensively with foreclosure properties through several REO asset disposition agents. Generally speaking, if you manage to contact them prior to my firm obtaining the listing, they will simply refer your call to my firm for placing an offer.
If you are interested in looking at foreclosures BEFORE the lender takes back possession, you will need to be present at the courthouse or whatever location is used for the public auction of such properties. Be aware that the lender always has an agent present to bid on the property on its behalf. In most cases, the lender will continue to bid up the property until the bidding exceeds what is owed to the lender on the property.
