Advice on Foreclosures

What do I need to know about shadow inventory when it comes to foreclosures?

In this case, shadow inventory refers to real estate properties that are in foreclosure and have not been released onto the market. What we are seeing are homes being released in batches. I don’t expect there to be a huge rush of homes at once.

In some cases there are homes that have been in default for 3-4 years. Some people are even paying rent to live in their property through housing programs.

Is there any advice you’d give someone who wants to purchase a foreclosed property?
