• Question for the Experienced Investors

  All of the other properties they own were bought at significant discounts. This could mean anything from buying them during market crashes (2008-2009), buying non-livable properties and fixing them up, finding properties zoned for multi-family with a single unit and knocking the unit down and building multi-family, adding ADUs where properties were already zoned and garages were already built, h over 2.5 - it's...

• Auction.com property with HUD addendums

  So I did a little bit of digging on auction.com's website, and it does seem like they have a "first look" program for basically everyone except investors. This house isn't coming up as a first look property though. I think I'm going to bid and hopefully not run into any issues. I guess the worst thing that can happen is I lose the EMD.

• buying a property from an online auction.

  Also noticing auction.com has had bed/bath wrong. They were wrong on my current house, 2/1 not a 3/1, and are wrong on another house I was thinking about buying, 3/1 not a 3/2. Not sure if this is intentional or not... Source: over 1 year ago

• Buying house through Auction.com

  I've bought several through Auction.com over the last 12 years. During the last down turn, there were deals on deals, everywhere. I know another poster touched on this but, you have to be prepared to pay the winning bid right then and there. I've never bought at a "in person" auction, which is most of what's listed on auction.com at the moment. It appears you have to bring a cashiers check with your max bid made...

• 30 years old software engineer looking to start a business

  Yep, it could lead to good opportunities. You should be able to buy in all market conditions and keep moving ahead, barring Armageddon. I use a software called propstream and it gives you some market analytics per zip code. Its important to understand in real estate that markets while cyclical are very much not tied at a macro level, each little market is different and behaves different and are at different points...

• How to buy an investment property with cash? What are the "other" costs?

  The comment you replied to said I didn't know know shit about foreclosure. My experience consists of looking at foreclosures handled through websites like auction.com. I am a drive by viewer as I stated earlier, I did not pretend to be an expert and I only mentioned what I saw. Which you could tell by the line of questioning so there was no need to be a prick about it. That website happens to intermix the auctions... Source: about 2 years ago

• Auction.com is a waste of time..

  Auctioneer here. I'm going to get downvoted into oblivion for this, but for all the people accusing auction.com of dishonesty through this policy, please first try to understand this:. Source: over 2 years ago

• Auction.com is a waste of time..

  I also won an bid on auction.com for 650k which was 680k after their fee. My market estimate of the property was 750-800k and I budgeted in for repairs since it was sight unseen. This was about 5 years ago and it's gone up a lot. very happy with my experience on this website. Source: over 2 years ago

• Auction.com is a waste of time..

  There was an auction.com listing in my area that ran through the auction about 5 times before some sucker finally bought it. It had to be sight unseen, because they inherited the old owner, tenant or squatter. Source: over 2 years ago

• Looking for a Foreclosure sale, am I crazy?

  Would auction.com be a good place to look for foreclosure deals? I saw 818 W Main St Ashland OH listed less than 70K, which is very attractive price for me. The house has been remodeled in 2018 and sold out around 130K. However, I didn't find it from the local county sale list. Source: over 2 years ago
