Hi Naomi...Great Question.

A house that has been foreclosed has, as a norn, a bank as its owner. They are normally listed as any other sale, in a local MLS. Almost always a Realtor is representing the bank in the marketing of this foreclosure.

Here in Southern California our MLS has as a criteria field "REO" and we can pull up foreclosed properties in a given area. Ask a local Realtor, they can assist you in finding what you are searching for.

Good Luck!
