<p>Everything is bigger in Texas … even the huge savings on foreclosure homes about to hit the auction block!</p>
<p>REDC, one of the nation’s most reputable and successful real estate auction companies, is gearing up for another big weekend (Sat., Nov. 14 and Sun., Nov. 15) with several major public foreclosure sales in the “Lone Star State.”</p>
<p>In fact, nearly 150 properties &#8212; condominiums and townhomes, as well as single- and multi-family properties &#8212; must be sold.</p>
<p>Everything must go, which is the reason bids can start as low as $500!</p>
<p>Here is where REDC will hold its upcoming foreclosure auctions in Texas (For complete details <a href="http://www.foreclosure.com/auctions/redc" target="_blank">click here</a>):</p>
<p><span id="more-2631"></span></p>
<ul>
<li>November 14 &#8212; Hilton Anatole-Khmer Pavilion in Dallas, Texas (2201 Stemmons Freeway)</li>
<li>November 15 &#8212; Hilton Americas-Houston in Houston, Texas (1600 Lamar)</li>
<li>November 15 &#8212; Hilton Garden Inn Austin Downtown – Sabine in Austin, Texas (500 North IH-35)</li>
</ul>
<p>Remember that you can bid in-person or online. If you plan to attend the foreclosure sale keep in mind that registration starts promptly at 8 a.m. local time and the auctions begin at 9:30 a.m. sharp.</p>
<p>The process is safe, easy and compliant with all legal regulations. And you don’t have to be an experienced real estate expert to purchase a property.</p>
<p>In fact, all you need to register are W-2 forms from the last two years, as well as a cashier’s check and/or check book for the Earnest Money Deposit(s).</p>

<p><!--adsense--></p>
<p>Kendi purchased a &#8220;one-bedroom, one-bath apartment in Chicago&#8217;s trendy South Loop neighborhood, with skyline views and heated parking, for just $105,000,&#8221; according to <a href="http://www.reuters.com/article/gc03/idUSTRE59E01B20091015?pageNumber=1&amp;virtualBrandChannel=11618&amp;sp=true" target="_blank">Reuters.com</a> feature today. The final sale price was $62,000 less than its last listing and well below true market value.</p>
<p>Her good fortune is just more proof that it&#8217;s a buyers market. Plain and simple. Opportunities to buy homes at deep discounts have never been better than they are right now.</p>
<p>And according to Dave Webb of Hudson &amp; Marshall, one of the biggest players in the real estate auction business, more amazing deals could flood the market in the very near future.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s a snip:</p>
<blockquote><p><em>&#8220;The foreclosures are going to explode again.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote>
<p>Why?</p>
<p>Mr. Webb points to moratoriums that have or are about to expire on  foreclosures, which were put in place months ago by major lending institutions and banks to minimize defaults and stabilize the market.</p>
<p>However, this well-intentioned move may have just delayed the inevitable and, as the report suggests, an &#8220;avalanche of new repossessions&#8221; could be on the horizon.</p>
<p>So keep your eyes peeled in the coming days and months for your <a href="http://www.foreclosure.com/index.html?rsp=22279" target="_blank">winning real estate ticket on Foreclosure.com</a>. Or just use our <a href="http://www.foreclosure.com/alert.html?rsp=22279" target="_blank">FREE foreclosure email alerts</a> and we&#8217;ll keep our eyes peeled for you.</p>

<blockquote><p><em>&#8220;We’re starting to see banks loosen up on financing and consider a number of different incentive programs to move their inventory. I know a number of banks who are getting ready to release programs like this, between now and the end of the year.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote>
<p>Deep discounts on prices and insurance, as well as closing cost and home repair assistance, are several of the perks that buyers can take advantage of right now.</p>

<p>On <a href="http://www.foreclosure.com/index.html?rsp=22279" target="_blank">Foreclosure.com</a>, of course. Paul Owers from the<em><a href="http://weblogs.sun-sentinel.com/business/realestate/housekeys/blog/2009/10/if_my_property_value_went_down_1.html" target="_blank"> Sun Sentinel</a></em> explains:</p>
<blockquote><p><em>&#8220;&#8230; there are many bank-owned properties here in Florida. Banks often offer reduced or no closing costs when these homes are purchased. All lenders are motivated to unload their inventories, so there are deals to be had out there. As far as financing, rates are still at historic lows and Federal Housing Administration loans allow for as little as 3.5 percent for down payments. You can contact different banks or check out websites such as Foreclosure.com.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-2221" title="blog promo" src="http://blog.foreclosure.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/blog_promo_long.jpg" alt="blog promo" width="400" height="250" /></p>
<p>Time is running out to claim the $8,000 first-time homebuyers tax credit! We&#8217;re down to three months before the limited-time government-sponsored program expires on Dec. 1, 2009.</p>
<p>That might seem like enough time to get in on the action; however, finding, financing and then closing on a home can take as much as 90 days. And if it&#8217;s a short sale then the process will likely take longer &#8230; much longer.</p>
<p>So if you have any intentions of saving as much money as possible on the home of your dreams then the time to act is <span style="text-decoration: underline;">right now.</span></p>
<p><!--adsense--></p>
<p>We decided to sweeten the pot, which will hopefully provide you with even more incentive to search for the best real estate deals in your area before the prices start climbing back up. And before the last-minute rush on the most affordable homes begins &#8230; if it hasn&#8217;t already.</p>
<p>For the next three months (Sept. 1, 2009 to Dec. 1, 2009) we are giving our blog readers and <a href="http://twitter.com/foreclosure_com" target="_blank">Twitter</a> followers a special discount offer to search our nationwide real estate database of more than 1.8 million distressed real estate listings. We refer to it as the &#8220;Tax Credit Countdown.&#8221;</p>
<p>Foreclosure.com is already <a href="www.foreclosure.com/registration.html?rsp=0" target="_blank">FREE to search for seven days</a> &#8212; no strings attached, cancel at anytime. However, sometimes house hunters need more time to comb through and visit all the awesome deals right in their backyards.</p>
<p>Therefore, we&#8217;re slashing our monthly subscription &#8212; already among the cheapest in the industry &#8212; by 30 percent! That&#8217;s savings, on top of tax credits, on top of more savings (you can find homes up to 50 percent off on Foreclosure.com every day).</p>
<p>So how do you get started? It&#8217;s simple.</p>
<p><strong>Just visit this registration page: <a href="https://www.foreclosure.com/registration.html?rsp=0" target="_blank">www.foreclosure.com/registration.html?rsp=0 </a> and insert the phrase &#8220;taxcredit&#8221; (no quotes &#8230; just taxcredit) where it says &#8220;Click here to enter a promo code&#8221; (see screen shot in the extended entry).</strong></p>
<p>That&#8217;s it!</p>
<p><span id="more-2216"></span></p>
<p>If you find a deal within seven days, which many of our subscribers often do, then our special offer is simply not a factor in your overall savings. You got it all for FREE, saving a ton in the process &#8230; and that&#8217;s just fine by us!</p>
