Owners of in foreclosure might be unwilling to allow an inspection of the home, thus presenting specific challenges. Sometimes the subjects have been vandalized, often by the former residents. Or, it's common to discover the residents have moved out or the home neglected for long of time. For real estate that has already changed to REO, you probably will be interested in a quick disposition . But you might want to understand and examine three values: as-is, as repaired, and "quick sale." These symbolize the worth of the house without any repairs performed, with the repairs needed to make the house marketable at full market value corresponding with competing homes in the neighborhood, and, somewhere in the middle, with minor investment in repairs - selling the property quickly, possibly as a "fixer-upper".
