Foreclosures

If you are interested in purchasing one of Greenville SC forelosures, you can go to the courthouse auction and try to purchase one of these Greenville foreclosed homes for sale before they are listing on the market with a Greenville area real estate brokerage.

Unfortunately, most of these Greenville area foreclosure homes do not sell at the auction because of loan balances that are much higher than the price the amount the bank is willing to accept on the property. When these homes do not sell at the auction, they become an REO (Real Estate Owned) by the lender. This is when the bank would evict the homeowners if they have not already moved out, and then list the property with a real estate broker in the Greenville area.

Some of these bank owned homes are in good condition, and may only need new carpet, appliances or paint. Sometimes the lenders would make these updates and then try to sell it at market value or as close to it as possible. These Greenville SC bank-owned homes are mostly sold as-is, and they are usually in need of repairs and/or updates.

Greenville SC foreclosed properties that are in good condition and are priced right usually sell quickly, and some of them actually receive multiple offers. The ones that don’t sell fast just sit vacant. Since the bank has no hope of getting any mortgage payments, the longer it sits, the more motivated the bank gets.

Some homebuyers are also purchasing Greenville SC short sales before they are foreclosed on. Although short sales may take some time to finalize, it does allow the buyer to potentially purchase the home for less than the loan balance. Plus, the homeowner gets to avoid foreclosure.
