Particular challenges might be present when working with owners of properties in foreclosure. They might be unwilling to allow an inspection of the house. If they left the home already, they could have overlooked the care of the home for some time - or worse, ransacked the property.

For a house that has already reverted to Real Estate Owned, you most likely will want it off your hands as quickly as possible. In any case, you'll still want to consider three ways of determining the value of the asset (or in some cases, liability):

• As Repaired. Value with the work required to make the house marketable at full market value - consistent with similar homes in the neighborhood
• As-is. The market value of the property without any repairs performed
• Quick sale. Somewhere in between, with minimal investment in repairs - to get rid of the home quickly, probably as a "fixer-upper"
