I was a little frustrated realizing that it takes more work to buy a foreclosure and most home owners that are selling are still unwilling to lower their prices to compete. When I realized that a house I had my eye on for 129K is now being offered at 89K after foreclosure, it made me realize that it really isn't that much more work to do when your talking a years salary, more or less!

That's the good thing about actually being in the area while you do your final search - you can get the feel for what's going on at a house and see if you like everything about it. Appreciate you taking the time to keep your interested public up to date! =)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
