You've been watching David Becks lately haven't you!! J/k but... for your first proptery don't you think the 300K range is a bit much. I would recomend something around the 100-180K range. Something that doesn't require to much renovations and work but still needs a month work of attention and about 15K. I have some helpfull hints... care to hear me out?

If the home seems a little bit rough ask if you can have a structural engineer check out the place. If its a bank prop... be particularly aggressive in negotiating with a bank. They're very keen to sell a foreclosed home fast, as it's just sitting on their books doing nothing. They also like to sell to first time private home owners. HUD and other agencies often auction foreclosed homes. However, buyers are frequently unable to inspect any property before making an offer. With so little information, the higher the bid for the property, the higher the risk that you may end up with a money pit. You might want to hold off on the auctions till you get a few homes under your belt Foreclosures are difficult.... to locate and to execute the transactions... but the potential to turn them over for a tidy profit may be there

- Be prepared to deal with more paperwork with a foreclosure than you would with a conventional purchase, particularly when a government agency is involved.
- Have your agent check nearby or comparable homes to see if the asking price for a foreclosed home is, in fact.... a bargain of some sort.
- Investigate the advantages. Since a bank or other lender wants to recover as much of its investment as quickly as possible, foreclosed homes are often unloaded at significant discounts...upwards of 30 percent or more.
-Government agencies such as Fannie Mae (fanniemae.com) and the Department of Housing and Urban Development (hud.gov) also advertise foreclosed homes for sale. Check public records for other leads. A lender deciding to foreclose must file a notice of default in the local county clerk's office.... You can normally acess these online.
-Tour the property and inspect it as closely as possible. Some foreclosures--unlike fixer-uppers--are in fairly good shape. Others may be behind in maintenance.
-Check to see if a foreclosed home has any liens on it, such as unpaid property taxes. Find out who is liable for those costs.
-Check your credit report and correct any defaults or outdated information. Get prequalified for a mortgage...Depending on the agency handling the sale, it may be required.

So basiclly I should start out with bank forclosures and hud homes...could I just go to the bank and ask them if i could take over the loan on the house, or dose that hardly ever work?

They will flat out laugh at you... Thats how quick most of the bank homes are sold I think that you should maybe stick to fixer upper homes... not nesscarily foreclosures unless you are ready and willing with money in hand.

When I dealt big time in foreclosures I was in New Orleans... they were gone in matter of hours most times. And I picked up a few lots in Old Meterrie back when I first started out and get about 3 offers a weeks. But the area hasn't reached its fullest potential yet.
But if your going to try fixer-up homes... it requires a lot of personal time if your going to try and save money and do it with out a GC.
