Sources for Deals

[Stephon Blackwell]

All over this site, there are threads dedicated to "finding deals." In order to cut back on the number of these threads to be created in the future - which are often repeats of past ones - I want to compile the most exhaustive list possible of places on the web to find RE deals.

This can be a reference guide for newbies and veterans alike.

Here's what I've got so far:

Fannie Mae
http://www.homepath.com/

Freddie Mac
http://www.homesteps.com/

The FDIC
http://www.fdic.gov/buying/owned/
http://orelistings.cbre.com/
http://www.fdiclistings.com/

Department of Justice
All DOJ RE sales are handled by LPS Asset Management Solutions: http://www.lps-am.com/

All others
http://www.ustreas.gov/auctions/

I've noticed that a lot of federal agencies as well as regional and community banks use CB Richard Ellis to handle the sale of foreclosed property. So they are definitely a good source for leads.

If you have links/sources to other places, please list them here.

I'm especially interested in finding out where national and regional banks are listing their properties online.

Any ideas?
