Finding hidden information on investment homes to flip, rehab, rent or resell in Iowa.
by Brian Wentz, Realtor
Many of our investor clients ask us to locate bank owned and government foreclosed properties for them. These properties can have considerable investment value, as lenders prefer to get foreclosures off their books quickly. Especially these days.
Knowing where to look, and what information is available can certainly give you a head start . So I wanted to take a moment to share a website I use that you might find valuable also!
VA and FHA foreclosures in our area are managed by "Best Assets". This company maintains a website which includes government repossessed homes for sale in Iowa, and a few other States. The site also includes a considerable amount of additional information about each property; information which is often not found anywhere else! This can include inspections that have been completed, known defects, lead paint information, and recommendations for additional inspections you may want to have preformed.
All of these foreclosures are listed for sale in the Des Moines MLS, but the Best Assets website allows the public to view the HUD listings without even registering. Should you find a property you are interested in, you will, however, need a "HUD registered broker" to help you make an offer - and that's me! I am authorized to work with buyers to purchase HUD homes, and can help you understand what is involved!
As a Full service Realtor, and a DMAAR MLS member, I can easily set you up to receive daily emails with the new foreclosures for sale in Des Moines and Central Iowa, including HUD homes and bank owned properties from other sources. (We can do the same if you are looking for a personal home also!) And since I don't list these foreclosure homes, you can be assured I am always working for you!
