The REAL "BANK OWNED" HOMES of the USA- A story in pictures part 8

Todays "Foreclosure" of the day


 
A large part of our business these days is REO " Bank Owned" homes. I receive so many comments how i can work with these "crooks" etc.... But there is another side to this story... by no means is any of this alright.... As you all know, as part of my ongoing blog, everyone reads and sees the mainstream media everyday reporting on foreclosed homes, but only a very few get to see inside them on a daily basis. I have decided to share with you the cream of the crop.

I have been asked several questions regarding my posts, to answer one of them... i have purposely left out towns, cities and pictures of the front of homes on purpose to protect the "innocent".

Scott, it's bad enough that they are foreclosed on but it would be nice to not leave them so nasty inside.

Scott, I have seen worse in some of the homes I've had....and the amount of personal belongings left behind is also amazing.  How about Coach bags with price tags still on them?  Wedding oil portraits, etc????

Suzanne i can not believe the things left behind sometimes, wedding albums, kids toys, closets full of clothes and then there is tons of trash. Most homes i have been getting assigned are abandoned though. Almost like they got up and left and never turned back.... it is sad to see some of them, it is even sadder that there was help but they just didnt find it to be able to stay or to sell through a short sale and save their credit and financial loss.
