“That world inside there is very competitive…. And their intent would be to raise your price so that you will not come back again.”

– Julian Dominguez, who’s been investing in foreclosures and guiding others through it from more than 20 years, shares some insight via CBS4.com on what the atmosphere is sometimes like during a public foreclosure auction. In short, it’s not uncommon for experienced investors to manipulate, intimidate or take advantage of new faces. Therefore, it’s always a smart move to attend a few auctions before actually bidding on a house during one. This will give you time to get a feel for the mood in the room and also meet with some of the other “regulars.” For more on the firsthand foreclosure auction experience click here.

That’s the focus of our most recent edition of “Investment Exchange,” which is our FREE real estate email newsletter.

In fact, we plan to delve into preforeclosures in great detail over the next three editions of “Investment Exchange” in an informative three-part series. And that’s all because we feel strongly about the massive benefits and financial rewards of preforeclosure investing.

What’s preforeclosure?

During preforeclosure, a property still belongs to the homeowner, but the lender has initiated legal foreclosure procedures because payments have not been made and the loan is considered to be in default.

Purchasing preforeclosure deals — many of which are available for up to 50 percent less than current market value on Foreclosure.com — is a lucrative real estate investment technique that is perhaps the smartest and safest option available to experienced and first-time investors alike.

In the first part of our preforeclosure series, we discuss how to find good preforeclosure deals before the “competition.” From where to find potential investments to how to analyze them, our goal is to give you the tools you need to get on and follow the preforeclosure scent.

One quick hint: It smells like money.

We receive several inquiries almost daily about what it’s like to attend a local foreclosure home auction. It’s hard to answer because each county varies in terms of organization, competition and atmosphere.

(Note: For more background information on auctions and sheriff sales click here and here.)

To provide some sort of context we decided to send one of our staff members to the Palm Beach County Courthouse located in West Palm Beach, Florida, to sit-in on one of two weekly foreclosure auctions (Tuesday and Thursday.)

Here is her report:

No strings attached!

Is it really possible to go to police and/or government auctions to buy things such as cars, trucks — even real estate — for rock-bottom prices?

Some quick searches on Google revealed that the answer to that question is an overwhelming, “Yes.”

In fact, there’s a good government site that we came across known as USA.gov that features quality products at affordable prices. This Web site is the creation of the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and the Department of Veteran Affairs (VA).

In addition, OCWEN — a global financial services company offering a variety of products and services related to residential and commercial mortgage servicing — is one of the sites that offers a great selection of Real Estate Owned (REO) listings.

General Merchandise Auctions is another good link for government auctions.

Overall, we found that there is some very useful information on these government sites — check them out when you have some time. Many of these items are online auctions and can be bid on by anyone. However, there is one shared caveat among the respective sites that warrants attention:

“PLEASE CONTACT THE PROPERTY CUSTODIAN TO MAKE AN APPOINTMENT TO INSPECT THE PROPERTY BEFORE YOU ATTEMPT TO BID.”

Hmm … how is someone supposed to go see, for example, some old computer parts in Indiana when he or she lives in Florida and is only bidding $50?

The chances are that person will have to trust the buyer. And in these instances, especially if there is a solid chunk of change at stake, we recommend that you exercise extreme caution.

For those reading this who have actually found, bid and purchased anything on these government auction sites, please share your experiences in the comments section below. We, as well as our visitors, are very interested in learning more about your results.

Now down to business.

At Foreclosure.com, we list hundreds of thousands of properties on our Web site from numerous government sites, as well as include several other sources of distressed homes. We aggregate that data and provide it to you in one convenient place as opposed to going to multiple sites.

What’s more, we also buy lists from multiple sources that do not have Web presences. At the end of the day, it turns out being quite helpful for people who cannot afford to pay a lot of money for these files.

It’s the reason we are the number one (and most reliable) source of real estate investment property information for police and government auctions … and so much more.
