In my local area at this point the vast majority of homes on the market are either foreclosures or short sales, so it's important to work with an agent who's knowledgeable when it comes to this facet of the real estate business.

Foreclosures are taking place and homes are sold in auctions. The problem with auctions is that a bidding war starts which result in homes sold at a higher price. For this reason many investors try to approach the owner before his/her home is foreclosed.

Buying foreclosure properties is smart business, that nets many investors a fortune. The fact of that matter is that the homeowner couldn't pay their bills, their house was foreclosed on and now being sold for cheap, do you want to cash in or let someone else do it? My wife got me into investing in these types of properties a couple of years ago and we have managed to make a pretty decent income, I don't feel bad about it, if I didn't buy the homes then someone else would!

I have tried similar foreclosure sites, however, and didn't find them to be particularly helpful. I totally appreciate the homework you did about foreclosure properties.

While it is unfortunate that some homeowners fall into forclosure, it is by no means a "scam" or "fraud" to capitalize on other people's inability to pay their bills. Would you rather those people be coddled like suckling babes and have their hands held while they max their credit cards out on junk like iPods, Xbox, clothes, car stereos, plasma TV's and then they can't afford to pay their bills? Nobody said the business world is a perfect place but to call a perfectly acceptable business practice a scam or a fraud shows your lack of maturity. What about the lenders who wrote these mortgage loans that are being defaulted on? How about the real estate brokers who sold these people their over-priced homes? Are they scammers and fraudsters? Oh, I guess everybody should just be entitled to a free house, a free car and a free ride in life. a shto chesh!
