REO's  

Real Estate Owned (REO's) are bank owned properties.  The lender takes ownership of the property, either through an agreement with the owner during pre-foreclosure and at times at an auction.   The lender usually sells the property to recover the unpaid loan amount and other expense.  They typically clear the title.  The potential bargain is less than a pre-foreclosure.  However, it has a secured title. 
How to Buy on Maui



Not much people have the luxury of saving a lot of cash, nowadays, however a smart buyer  establishes a relationship with a responsible knowledgeable Lender.  Being prepared to buy in our current market is the key to financing short sales, pre-foreclosures and REO properties. 
 
A good Lender should know the latest trends and mortgage programs that are available to provide you with a loan you can qualify for.

Currently available is the new FHA Stimulus  Loan Program that assists new home buyers with low or "zero money" down payment. 

Your credit score is not considered as the qualifying factor.  In fact if you have credit problems in collections, bankruptcies or a foreclosure within the past 2 years, this loan probably will help a lending hand.  This program may also help those who are struggling with a sub-prime loan.


Once your
"BUYING POWER" is determined you need to work with a very reliable and knowledgeable Realtor, that is committed to
service you with a great sense of integrity.
