Welcome back to Crye-Leike Insights! Each week, we share tips, stories, and wisdom from our Crye-Leike family. This week, Kim Hairrell from the Crye-Leike REO Division joins to give us some advice and tips for buying a foreclosure.


Purchasing the Foreclosed Property



  • Cash Offers - You must get a proof of fund from your lender.

  • Loan Offers - Make sure your lender knows that you are purchasing a foreclosed home and that the repairs will not be done by the seller. You will have to specify that these will be completed after closing.


Making Your Offer Stand Out



  • Foreclosed homes are aggressively priced... usually resulting in multiple offers.

  • The Bank is looking for the best net offer.

  • Things to make your offer look better: cash offers, no closing costs,  no concessions, shorter inspection periods, shorter closing periods.


Inspections for Foreclosed Homes



  • All foreclosed homes are winterized in the winter. They must be de-winterized before inspection. Ask in your contract to have the seller pay for the de-winterizing.

  • Sometimes, utilities can not be turned on for inspection. Talk to your inspector on how to handle the inspection.


Crye-Leike's REO Division is here to help you through the whole process of buying a foreclosed home!
