Go to http://usa-foreclosure.com All of usa-foreclosure.com is 100% free No subscriptions, no ads, no popups just foreclosures directly from the trustee. These are homes that are up for auction, if they don't sell at auction they revert back to the lender and become REO's (bank owned).

If you want a free list of REO's (also known as foreclosures) any Realtor in you area can provide this to you for free. For Seattle area foreclosures visit http://sorinrealty.com

Hi Rich,
You can go to http://www.homepath.com. These are Fannie Mae homes that have been foreclosed on. Special financing on these properties is being offered plus incentives for closing ...such as picking up some of your closing costs. Good deal all around.
If you see a property that you like don't hesitate to give me a call on my cell#858-775-3226.

You've got to watch out for a lot of these guys offering lists of foreclosures, and distress sales or access to foreclosure listings. They usually have some sort of alterior motive.

Here are a few government sites (.gov) No strings attached:

It's hard to filter out all the noise when looking for free information. Bottom line, if you're serious about buying a home and putting an offer in, a few dollars for accurate information isn't that big of a deal. A lot of the free sites I've checked out are haphazard. Best bet...

1. Pick up the phone and call a good agent
2. Go with one of the real foreclosure websites, the big ones. (and just cancel before your free trial runs out, don't forget)

You can search for foreclosures on my web site free - a printed list would be outdated the day you got it. Make sure you search online on an accurate Foreclosure Search Site. Good Luck.

you can develop your own list, but when you say foreclosure list do you want a list of bank owned houses or houses that are up for auction?

Hi there Rich. I can send you a list of the weekly defaults too. But are you looking for a forclosure of just a really great deal. The NODS are usually not a real good indicator of actual homes that go into forclosure status, There a re many bank ownder and short sales all ove the san diego area.
If you would like some guidance let me know

Rich,
I can have the weekly Default list sent to you via e-mail for free. It includes the last week's, notice of defaults, the notice of trustee sales and the real estate owned list (reo). If you want the list each day, you will have to pay for the service. You can look at the San Diego Daily Transcript for this type of information too. http://www.sddt.com
Here is the exact foreclosure timeline...

Be cautious of going to a trustee sale for the reasons that Linda mentioned about 2nd's, 3rd's etc. You could unknowingly buy what you think is a first trust deed and buy a 2nd or a 3rd instead. A Realtor can hlep you with either a short sale or to buy a bank owned property. I can recommend a good one if you would like some names.

A Realtor serving your geographic area can provide regular free listings. Or you can go to your local courthouse for the listings. Generally, also, the listings are published regularly in major area newspapers--usually in the classified ads section.

Rich,
You can find information on foreclosure properties on line at RealtyTrac.com. I can also provide you a list of foreclosure properties in San Diego without enrolling in a paid program. However, the most important thing is to determine what you are looking for in a property or on those lists then find the information that meets your needs. Please give me a call if I can be of service. (619)850-5432.

FIRST ANSWER

Beware of the free foreclosure lists. Most are simply lures to get you to sign up for paid programs.

In CA, the foreclosure process lasts a minimum of 120 days. The foreclosure lists report homes that have NOD's (Notice of Default) filed, which doesn't meant that the home will actually be sold at a foreclosure auction. The homeowner who is in default does have the opportunity to either bring the loan current, refinance, negoiate with the bank, or attempt to sell the home on their own as a short sale. The short sale process itself can take many months, so quite often auction dates are postponed several times.

Many times the NOD is for a second mortgage (or 3rd or 4th mortgage), so the first mortgage holder will likely take some action prior to the auction date. Also, many of these lists will have multiple postings for the same property, since they report each time a NOD is filed.

You'll find many homes with NOD's filed listed on the MLS as Short Sales. Contact a local Realtor for information on short sales in your area.
