Thanks everyone for the great info. I've started working with a realtor that's familiar with HUD and Homepath because as some of you stated the process is pretty long and involved. I'll update the thread with the my results.

Thanks again.

Hi I need some advice on how to bid on a HomePath or HUD home.

I read that I would need to use a HUD-registered selling broker in order to bid on homes listed the hudhomestore.com site. Does this mean that I don't need a buyer's agent or does this mean that the selling broker is functioning as the seller's agent and I should still contact a buyer's agent?

Also, I didn't see any similar requirements on the Homepath.com site.  Does that mean that I can bid directly on homepath homes myself?  Also, if I plan to flip the home, do I still need to take the Homepath Ready Buyer course?

Thanks (DC, Maryland, VA)
