What is R.E.O.?


R.E.O. stands for Real Estate Owned. This involves the acquisition of property which is in the possession of a lender as a result of foreclosure or forfeiture. This is when homeowners must turn the property over to the Lender because they are unable to meet the mortgage.

Usually, when buyers plan to purchase an R.E.O. (or foreclosed) property, they incur special challenges such as tighter time-lines and rigorous policies.
