This is a big weekend for house hunters and investors in the Florida and Minnesota markets looking to take advantage of the best real estate deals in their areas.

REDC, one of the nation’s most reputable and successful real estate auction companies, will conduct public foreclosure sales on Saturday, Sept. 19, with bids on homes that start as low as $500.

Condominiums and townhomes, as well as single- and multi-family properties, are all on the block and up for grabs for ridiculously cheap prices.

You can bid in-person or online.

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.

We hope that you take advantage of these rock-bottom prices and easy financing at today’s low interest rates while they last!

Right now there are so many great discounted properties available throughout the nation that you can essentially “steal” them for dirt cheap prices.

On top of these amazing deals, as well as the limited-time tax credit for first-time homebuyers that expires on Dec. 1, 2009, banks are still offering fantastic mortgage rates to encourage spending.

In fact, rates recently dropped to less than 5 percent!

Mortgage applications have skyrocketed thanks to this “perfect storm” that has created ideal homebuyer conditions.

How can you not be tempted to capitalize on these opportunities of a lifetime?

All these facts add up to one major point: for the right property, the numbers make good, solid “cents” right now. There has literally never been a better time to get into distressed property investment.

The September 2009 edition of Foreclosure.com’s free educational newsletter, “Investment Exchange,” is now available, which is all about helping you figure out how to get your hands on the money you need to get started in distressed property investing.

We touch on everything, from funding options to tips for raising your credit score. We also cover how you can accomplish it all without experiencing any of the headaches that can often deter first timers.

So get ready to learn everything you need to know about financing your dream home at the best possible terms! Check out “Fund the Deal” today and get going before it’s too late — remember the clock is ticking to lock-in the best terms and incentives!

Time is running out to claim the $8,000 first-time homebuyers tax credit! We’re down to three months before the limited-time government-sponsored program expires on Dec. 1, 2009.

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’s a short sale then the process will likely take longer … much longer.

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 right now.

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 … if it hasn’t already.

For the next three months (Sept. 1, 2009 to Dec. 1, 2009) we are giving our blog readers and Twitter 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 “Tax Credit Countdown.”

Foreclosure.com is already FREE to search for seven days — 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.

Therefore, we’re slashing our monthly subscription — already among the cheapest in the industry — by 30 percent! That’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).

So how do you get started? It’s simple.

Just visit this registration page: www.foreclosure.com/registration.html?rsp=0 and insert the phrase “taxcredit” (no quotes … just taxcredit) where it says “Click here to enter a promo code” (see screen shot in the extended entry).

That’s it!

That’s the latest from an Associated Press report, which cites data from the National Association of Realtors, indicating that home sales nationwide jumped 7.2 percent in July 2009.

It’s the fourth straight month-over-month increase for the beleaguered housing market.

Prices have dropped remarkably across the board, creating amazing opportunities for homebuyers to purchase properties that may have been out of their reach just a few years ago. In addition, the clock is ticking to take advantage of the $8,000 first-time homebuyer tax credit. It expires on Dec. 1, 2009.

These factors and many others, including low mortgage interest rates, have created a sense of urgency among buyers and investors.

In an interesting twist, sales of foreclosures and other distressed properties are now down, accounting for about one-third of all real estate transactions last month — down from nearly half earlier this year. Those sales, however, “helped drag down the median sales price by 15 percent to $178,400.”

It also means that there are more foreclosure deals from which to choose.
