bradxschuman | Can buying FORECLOSED properties and reselling for profit be lucrative? |
Anyone with experience in this department? Thanks! |

It can be, but it is a very chancy thing - there is no guarantee that you will be able to sell the property for a profit, so you could lose money. It is best if you have a large cash cushion and have connections with people with experience. |

my brother tried but found out rather quickly that most of the "good" homes are taken up by the banks themselves. the only decent homes that will offer a profit after rehabbing them...are gone...if not to the banks or lender their attorneys or someone they know will always have first dibs....sorry,,,you can see whats out there and decide for yourself..good luck |

Yes. Provided you know what you are doing |

It could be if you are in the right situation and are lucky also. I attended an expensive training course on that subject taught by some of the big names in that field. They were great speakers and the people in their anecdotes were all rolling in profits. However when I looked up some of the things they talked about and went to some foreclosure auctions and banks it was not as simple as just holding a bucket and waiting for someone to dump hundred dollar bills into it. At that point it occurred to me that there are people who do find it lucrative but that they are making their money by selling training courses and reference materials to wannabes. |

Yes, If you know what you are doing. You should research your market and how quickly real estate is selling. You do not want to get a property you are not able to sell. |

A few years ago, absolutely. There were REO's everywhere. Today there is a lot more competition making the margins much lower. And the other huge difference is that the market was rising and it would cushion your mistakes. Today the market is stagnant or down, meaning no cushion for surprises. |

Yes, but keep in mind that with the economy the way it is, you should make sure you can afford to own a property longer than you might plan on. |
|
MiniME
|
yes, but you need to do so when the market is doing well, usually late spring/summer. |
