September 21st: REIA Main Meeting with Sham Reddy, CRS
7:30-9:00 Main meeting
How to Buy HUD Houses (and other foreclosures)
The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) is the largest insurer of sub-prime loans in the country, which is why the number of HUD foreclosures is expected to skyrocket soon. But HUD has a completely different process for seeing, bidding on, and buying properties than the typical bank. Sham Reddy, past president of Ohio REIA and a real estate agent with tons of HUD experience, will share the pros, cons, and opportunities in the HUD foreclosure market as well as the future of other foreclosures.
6:00-7:00 Early meeting
