By show of hands, when someone mentions HUD Homes, how many people think of something that looks like this: 

You may be surprised to know that in fact, HUD homes in the Houston Area in this day and age are much different than most stereotype properties that look like teardowns. If you think about it, in order for a property to become a HUD home, it must have had FHA (government guaranteed) financing and its condition had to fulfill FHA guidelines which happen to be very strict. In many cases, you can find two, three, five year old homes in the area that you prefer that look just like any builder home. The difference however, is that these homes come with a much smaller price tag. In addition, you can get benefits from HUD, like help with your closing costs, special discounts if you are a teacher or firefighter etc. 

The pictures above are just 6 of 25 Houston HUD homes available in the Greater Houston Area this week alone! Every week, there is a new contingent of HUD homes that come on the market and if you are looking to buy a home you should include these homes on your list because you might be missing out on a fantastic deal. For instance, imagine if you could buy the home that you want in the neighborhood that you want for a much lower price than the market and all you have to do is steam clean the carpet and touch up the paint. Wouldn't it make much more sense to move in with equity in your new home just for a weekend project that you would enjoy doing anyway?
