Buying foreclosures in Chattanooga TN

Buying a foreclosure can be a very rewarding experience both financially and personally gratifying, but it takes the right person to purchase a foreclosure. The future owner must have vision, patience, and a willingness to get their hands dirty. In Chattanooga, foreclosures are bought back only once the owner has lost the ability or the willingness to pay their note. Just like many things that someone does not pay for or is viewed as temporary, foreclosures get neglected. Also in most cases the proceedings take a few months and in many cases the bank holding the note has not received payment for 6-12 months. The good news is that all of these can work toward your advantage when purchasing foreclosures at some incredible prices.


Please note that the myth of buying a home for pennies on the dollar is not realistic, trust me, I have looked into just about every scheme I’ve heard of. The good news it that you can buy a home at an incredible discount and then rent it or fix it up and sell for a profit. Also be warned buying foreclosures takes a little more legwork and due diligence than purchasing a typical resale as there are some pitfalls if you are not careful. In almost all cases, whether you are a first time home buyer or a experienced and savvy investor, I would recommend you seek the help of a agent when purchasing a foreclosure.
