Rates, Bank owned and short sale tips for Las Vegas Real Estate Blog


(Las Vegas)

If you are making an offer on a bank-owned property, and the listing states “cash or conventional only,” this usually means the home faces extensive repairs and may be difficult to get FHA or VA financing on.

However, if you need FHA financing, don’t be afraid to make an FHA offer, on these properties, with an FHA 203K loan.

Our team is certified to do these loans and this may be an acceptable alternative, in many cases, to those “cash/conventional” listings. If you have questions on this, please call me.
