HUD Homes / Foreclosure List
I am an investor in Upstate, NY looking to find deals in the foreclosure space. All of the HUD sites i see charge money, which im no opposed to paying, but i wanted to check with the BP audience to see the best way to find these homes! Are there agents that specialize in HUD Homes? If so, where can i find them? Are there any free sites where these are listed?
Thanks in advance for the help!

ALL other websites are a scam of some variety.
"But but but Chris, 123 Banana St is listed on the scam website, but not on hudhomestore.gov" - yeah, because it sold 9 months ago, but the scam website isn't interested in showing you accurate information, it's a scam website.
I made a tiktok video about this intended for owner occupants. The only difference for an investor is, obviously, the $100 down option goes away.
Note that like 1 week after I made the below video, they redesigned the website. But if you're on www.hudhomestore.GOV (emphasis .gov, not .com or .net or anything else) then you're at the right place.
Second emphasis on where I discuss in the video that you have to have a hud-approved buyer's agent to place bids. Nope, you can't call the listing agent, nope you can't work something out, nope there's not a workaround.
