Hi all! Can someone please tell me, what are the best ways to source and bid on Foreclosures? There are so many websites and of course, most cost money to join. Thanks in advance!

Looking on websites at foreclosures is like being on a wholesalers email list. What you see has already been passed over by all of the experienced investors. Both still have value, but you have to know you are looking at third or more serving options in these places. I think Hubzu is better than Xome, Foreclosures dot com, and Auction dot com, but they could all be daisy chaining each other.

In most states they must be published in a local paper which all are online. It’s free and that is one way to get free listings.

judical states also have to file a lawsuit and you can search civil suits or contact sheriffs offices to get the calendar and listing for foreclosures

paying for a site is all in one and maybe worth it compared to how much time you are spending searchjng

if you stay in one area then I recommend what I mentioned

Hi Jonathan! Thank you for answering my question. I just found out about Hubzu. I've seen the others as well. I bought my first Multi-Unit (Duplex) and I'm gearing up to find my first SFH/Fixer Upper so I'm trying to build my list of resources for available properties in Atlanta and surrounding areas.

Thank you Chris! I'm going to start at the Atlanta Journal Constitution. But I'm also going to visit the other resources you mentioned.

    Is anyone seeing a sizable increase in pre-foreclosures in their market yet? Curious if we have to officially wait till trump is president or if some banks have already started. Not seeing it in my market yet.
