So are only certain foreclosed homes stripped like what has been described in here? Also where is a good place to find foreclosed homes at? Are the interest rates the same on them?
Thanks

Anyone got any tips besides shop around? I have been shopping around and found a well priced fixer on the things I want to customize anyway... so the work really isn't a big deal. But this is my first time buying a house... Any tips for the noob?
When i was looking i saw alot of houses with Mold. Saw a couple that were really nice but you have to look at them as soon as they come on the market and pull the trigger quck if you like it. because they go fast. The really nice foreclosures i saw went for 20K+ over asking. Has anyone looked into a short sale?
Hire a good home inspector. Seriously.
Equally as important as an "inspection" is to get a deluxe home warranty!! Make the seller pay for it in the closing costs!!
Is her name Liz Hensley?Make sure your realtor understands your needs. When we were looking for a house to rent, we found a really nice one that specifically mentioned pets were allowed. After we'd applied for the house and were about to sign the paperwork, the owner mentioned he didn't allow cats, and just didn't understand why that would be a dealbreaker for us. The realtor, a cat owner herself, totally understood and was able to get our application fees etc back to apply to the next house.
Our current realtor, now that we're looking to buy, is a fellow car nut, and she understands our need for garage space and space to park a trailer etc. She's done a great job at digging up possible houses for us to look at.
