To get your free ForecloseRadar search just enter the State, County or Zip Code for the area you are interested in the Free Foreclosure Search box on the ForeclosureRadar home page at ForeclosureRadar.com. (We are not compensated by Foreclosure Radar for directing you to their website.)

The first thing you will get are the current trends in the area’s foreclosures. This is all valuable data you need to have at your finger tips to be an informed buyer. Next, click on the “Listings” Tab. Now you will see the area’s Pre-foreclosures, Properties set for Auction, and Bank Owned Properties, 20 at a time. ForeclosureRadar keeps this list up to date daily and is frequently more current than the MLS that realtors use.

You can get much more detail by signing up for their 3 day free trial of the complete professional foreclosure search. Before you sign up, make sure you have some free time to devote to it because although it is very easy to use, the amount of data they provide is overwhelming.

I have found that the estimated values are usually much higher than houses are really selling for. That is why I have directed you to a local real estate agent. The banks usually list these houses much higher than local properties are selling for. Of course, they want to the entire loan value back but that is normally impossible in this market.

The pre-foreclosures are the properties that might be listed for short sales. If you want to buy a short sale, be prepared for the ordeal to last 6 months or longer. And make sure you completely understand what a short sale is.

The main reason I have directed you to a real estate agent is that the banks won’t deal with individuals. They will only work with real estate agents, so your are going to need to work with an agent eventually no matter what. Also, an experienced agent will immediately recognize when properties are listed too high and help you make a realistic bid. They can also save you a ton of time because they usually have properties already listed on the MLS that are better deals than you can find in the early foreclosure process.

Good Luck in your search. With a little homework and some patience you will find the perfect property.

Sample from "Real Estate Agent Hiring Guide":

Do you need to hire a real estate agent?

The answer to this question depends largely on your situation. If you are looking to purchase a home, it is very possible that can do so without hiring a real estate agent. There are tons of resources available for people looking to purchase real estate. Often, for a buyer, the only job for a real estate agent is to unlock the doors to allow you to look inside.

It is completely possible for you to perform research, negotiate prices and buy a house without an agent – but for most people this is not recommended. Real estate agents often help in the closing and escrow process. You can also use a property attorney for those procedures as well. The answer to whether or not you need to hire a real estate agent gets trickier if you are looking to sell your home. It is possible to sell your home by yourself using local marketing, the internet and advertising. But using a real estate agent all that work is done for you.

In short, choosing whether or not to use a real estate agent is like anything else. You can choose to do it yourself but most of the time it just makes sense to use a professional.

With all that being said, DO NOT decide whether or not to use a real estate agent based on a few short paragraphs. Read through this entire report to get a clear picture of the benefits of both using and not using a real estate agent. Once you’re done you’ll have the information needed to make the right decision for your situation.
