Lake Charles Real Estate Foreclosures


title line


You find a Lake Charles Foreclosure home for sale  and  it's such a good deal you decide to make a low ball the offer.  This happens all the time and 9 times out of 10 the Buyer loses out on the house.  There is a reason that foreclosed Lake Charles homes are priced the way they are.

Banks  are not looking to profit when they list a foreclosed property, The bank just wants to get the property off their books, and more than likely the listed price is going to be close to what is owed on the house.  If you are going to chase foreclosures, then you have to learn to play by the bank's rules!

Banks have a system in place when they list foreclosures for sale. 

  • The property will always convey in AS IS condition

  • Purchase will usually convey via special warranty deed with no title policy

  • Seller chooses closing attorney/title company

  • Seller will make no repairs

Remember the bank wants the house off their books they are tired of accumulating expenses!
