For anyone that is interested in purchasing a foreclosure, here are some very good reasons to buy a new home foreclosure.

1. You don't have to worry about the old homeowner destroying the property before they leave.

2. Most of them are already complete but if they are not, a lot of the time it's just flooring, paint and cleaning.

3. You can still hire an inspector prior to purchasing.

4. It's not personal.

5. When it comes time to sell, nearly new is more marketable and may cost less to prepare to sell.

6. You may get to pick your flooring, color scheme, etc (most of the time).

7. You will be under priced from everyone else that bought new.

8. Buying "As is" isn't nearly as scary!

9. Most people in the neighborhood don't know it's a foreclosure and if they do they forget that your the one that bought it for a deal... you just become another homeowner in the community.

10. Future material leins can be taken care of with title insurance. (just make sure you purchase the insurance)

When purchasing any home whether it is a foreclosure or not, you should contact a Realtor to help. With new construction seek out a new homes specialist. They normally have a list of properties and know which builders were, and are, good.
