Whats the best way to get information about foreclosures?


Question:
Do you really have to pay monthly fees to get foreclosure listings and info?? I would like to get a foreclosure and rehab it but everywhere I look is some kind of free trial, then a monthly fee to get the listings. I did one free trial and it seemed like the info was worthless because I found the same listings on other websites for free. Any advice?

Answer:
Your best bet is to team up with real estate agents who specialize in foreclosures and undervalued property and tell them what you're looking for and how much under market value it needs to be before you consider buying it.

I work with a couple of rehabbers in my area.

Find out what newspaper locally publishes the foreclosures and subscribe to that.

Foreclosure information is not free because no one wants to spend the time to collect the data, then give it away to the general public.

Realtors take listings then enter them into the MLS.

The public can access the MLS almost anywhere for free.

Realtors will not go to the county court house and look up Lis Pendes, gather the data, put it on a web site, the let the general public look at it for free.

Foreclosure properties do not offer any compensation for Realtors, therefore no incentive to gather the data.

Hope this helps.
