Synopsis
Buy bank-owned properties at fire-sale prices! Banks and lending institutions today own more than one million foreclosed properties, more are in the foreclosure pipeline. Banks desperately want to get these properties off their balance sheets, but there aren't enough buyers. The result is a soft real estate market with prices investors and homeowners may not see again in their lifetime. In recent years many bargain-hunting investors and homebuyers made the mistake of trying to get foreclosure prices via short sales and pre-foreclosure-- before the bank reclaimed the property. They've been burned by endless delays and uncertainty of the messy foreclosure process. With bank-owned properties, that's over. You deal directly with a motivated seller--the bank--and get the foreclosure price without the hassles and complexity of a short sale or pre-foreclosure. This book shows you how to negotiate the best possible terms with the real estate owned (or REO) department of a bank or lender, including step-by-step instructions and no-nonsense advice on finding great deals, estimating fair market value, and closing the deal. You don't need a ton of cash, because REO investing at fire-sale prices is affordable for almost any investor or homebuyer. Provides detailed, step-based guidance on buying REO properties Written by a super-successful REO investor with fifteen years of experience, Secure the Best Deals on Bank-Owned Properties in Todays Market! "This is the most powerful, persuasive, and practical book on buying bank-owned properties you will ever read. It is loaded with strategies for anybody who wants to get started buying foreclosures." David Lindahl, author, Multi-Family Millions and The Six-Figure Second Income "Over the past eighteen months, Ive purchased over sixty foreclosures using the methods and techniques that Jeff Adams reveals in this book.

Chris McLaughlin, Keller Williams Realty "Jeff Adams is truly a master investor and his strategies work in todays real estate market. He is changing the lives of investors all across America." Dave Seymour, star of A&Es Flipped and founder of City Light Homes "Jeff Adams is a master at buying bank-owned, REO properties. In this book, he has laid out step-by-step how he makes tens of thousands of dollars per property. With more REO properties on the market than there have ever been, now is the time to learn the insider secrets Jeff reveals in his new book."
