During our stint in the real estate “representation” realm, we have been blessed to procure several banks that used my team exclusively to sell their real estate owned assets.  You may know them by another title, Foreclosures.

There was a “huge” educational process that was in place with the larger ones(banks) with reference to broker price opinions, pre verification, occupancy, 90 days estimates of value and the pre marketing process.

After all of that work had been completed, the next step involved the 90 day estimates of value of the particular asset.

It was not as simple as just establishing the Fair Market Value (FMV), of the specific home, condo or town-home. It always came down to the “end of contract” time as to what the “advertised” listing price was going to be.

If we were in a declining real estate market, then the REO agent would have to established, per factual information that was Multiple Listing Service Based, what that decline was per month. If we were in an inclining real estate market, the same rule applied but by an appreciation standard.

REO – Stands for Real Estate Owned, named appropriately as this is the “column” on the “old style” bank ledger and tally sheets.

Some of the larger banks held thousands of reo assets after the last fall of the real estate market.
