Banks and Lending Institutions hold auctions of foreclosed homes. Check for auctions in your area. There are several ways to do this. Check the Legal Advertisements section of local newspapers to find out which properties are in foreclosure or about to be auctioned off after foreclosure. If foreclosure has not gone through, you might be able to buy the property right from the owner. Sometimes an owner gives the lender a deed in lieu of foreclosure so that the lender takes title without foreclosure. You can then buy from the lender itself. Many foreclosures are auctioned off by the local sheriff or similar public official. You can find out about those auctions either through newspapers, the lenders or the offices of the government official that will conduct the auction. There will be rules governing such auctions, so check with that official's office.
