Specific challenges can be present when dealing with owners of properties in foreclosure. They may be uncooperative to allowing an inspection of the home. Sometimes the houses have been vandalized, unfortunately at the hands of the former residents themselves. Or, it's common to find nobody has lived in house for months or the home languishing in disrepair for long periods of time.

For real estate that has returned to REO, you probably will want to get rid of it quickly. In any case, you'll still want to consider three angles for figuring the value of the subject property:

• As Repaired. Value with the work needed to make the home marketable at full market value - comparable with competing properties in the area
• As-is. The market value of the home without any repairs done to it
• Quick sale. Somewhere in the middle, with minor investment in repairs - to get rid of the home quickly, probably to someone inclined to finish the job themselves
