Those are handled differently.John Corey

It’s best if the funds are held in a separate account for the sake of simplicity but I’m not sure if it’s required, I use a property manager and they handle that stuff..

A helpful title company might not require two separate title policies, though.Best to call some local title companies and find out directly from them how they would handle it, and exactly what you would have to pay.Jon

With some persistence, you should be able to locate the agents who handle REO's in your area.Jon

If so, if anyone handles these and wants to tell me about them, please do.ThanksMark

Generally you need a relationship with the company handling the REO.

I have them mail me my check, and my buyers know the situation, so they show up, and handle it with the seller.

If it stays on the market then consider a fresh offer (the same or lower) later.It could be that the people who will handle the paperwork and will actually approve the sale are unclear as to the condition.
