What is a HUD Home?
A HUD home is a 1-4 unit residential property acquired by HUD as a result of a foreclosure action on an FHA-insureed mortgage. HUD becomes the property owner and offers it for sale to recover the loss on the foreclosure clam.

Who Can Buy A HUD Home?
Almost anyone! If you have the cash or can qualify for a loan (subject to certain restrictions) you may buy a HUD home. HUD Homes are initially offered to owner-occupant purchasers (people who are buying the home as their primary residence).Following the priority for owner occupants,unsold properties are available to all buyers,including investors.

How Are HUD Homes Sold?
All properties available for purchase by the public for sale atInternet listing sites maintained by management companies under contract to HUD. Any real estate broker registered with HUD may submit and offer and contract to purchase on your behalf. HUD pays the real estate broker's commoission,if included in the contract.

HUD Homes are offered for sale at fair market value,based on a recent appraisal.Generally, HUD Homes are sold in what is know as an" Offer Period",during which a potential buyers offer must be made. At the end of the "Offer Period" all offers are opened and the bid providing the highest acceptable net erturn to HUD may then be accepted. Following the initial "Offer Period" homes remaining unsold are offered on an "extended" basis which means offers may be submitted any business day. If a bid on one of these homes is acceptable,the broker will usually be notified within 48 hours of HUD's acceptance of the offer.
