What is the easiest way to find foreclosure homes around your area?
for those much wanted tax foreclosures(cheap)- you can try google searching tax auctions in (insert) your county and state. they are usually provided by the county financial department or sometimes a private auctioneer is listed.
For bank foreclosures- watch your local mls listings- almost all bank foreclosures are listed here including all HUD properties, maybe hook up with a real estate agent to keep a eye out for you. like the other person said HUD, VA and USDA properties are availble to- they have a website -go through and find your state.

Although theres tons of places out there trying to charge you for their services of collecting those foreclosures- most are listed on the mls- public information.
Theres also a few auction houses that do bank sales for the smaller banks – you can check out www.auctionzip.com and maybe find some of those.
Also try to find a agency in your area who specializes in REO properties, theres usually one in a large city nearby – try a google search.

Foreclosure notices will be posted in the classifieds of your local paper (Legal Notices). You can also look up records at the county courthouse, or work with a local Realtor who works with buyers looking at foreclosures.
