When people get into difficulty with their finance and miss mortgage payments their home may be at risk of repossession, unfortunately there are thousands of houses reposed each year and placed up for sale by the banks. Although when this happens it is obviously very sad, but what it does mean these repossessed houses are placed for sale, usually well below the market value as the banks are just wanting to get back the loan or mortgage amount, on completion of the sale the former owner will receive the remainder of the purchase price after the mortgage has been paid along with any fees applicable.
Repossessed homes would often benefit from renovation and decoration, because the former home owner is often low of funds, the home is often run down (but this is not always the case). With the appropriate funding and expertise a shrewd property developer is able to make a good investment on the property.
Repossessed Houses
