Bank Owned Properties - How to make a strong, acceptable offer!

How to make your offer on a bank owned property stand apart.


1. Have a great Buyer's agent on your side, because the listing agent isn't going to negotiate for you!


2. Have your pre-approval letter ready when you present your offer.


3. Present the offer with 3% or more (of offer price) earnest money.


4. Have your agent include comparables sales if they support your offer.


5. Put together a list of repairs that need to be done to the property along with photos as evidence.


6. Pay all cash...if you can!


7. Make a clean, solid offer...the bank usually don't make repairs...so don't ask them to.


8. Make a clean, solid offer...with as few contingencies as possible.


9. Offer a quick closing...
