This was an REO, meaning this property has been foreclosed on and was transferred back to the bank. Most banks are not set up to own homes, and are typically motivated to sell the home at a very low price. The list price is for financing by the owner but you may present any reasonable cash offer as they often give big cash discounts. Because the current owner is willing to finance this home, the down payment and monthly payments are very low. Call to see this property today, these deals don't last long!
