hello and welcome back i'm sandy curtis
[2]
with berkshire hathaway bowen realty
[4]
and today we're going to discuss the hud
[6]
home store website
[8]
and how to search for a home so let's
[11]
get started
[17]
how do we find if there are any hud
[20]
homes
[21]
for sale in our area so we're going to
[23]
go up to the search bar we're going to
[25]
type in
[25]
hud homestore.com
[28]
and hit enter of course you can always
[31]
google hud homes and it'll take you to
[33]
that website
[34]
so this is what you are going to see
[37]
when you are looking at the home
[39]
hud home website and there is a
[42]
pretty intelligent map here you can use
[45]
or you can go down here and you can put
[46]
your state in
[48]
and your county and if you have a
[51]
specific
[53]
house that you're looking for you would
[55]
put in the address but if you don't
[56]
you're just looking for that
[58]
area i'm looking for the whole county of
[60]
washington county and maryland i'm going
[61]
to hit
[62]
search unfortunately there are no homes
[64]
for sale at this point in time
[66]
in washington county so let's try
[71]
some baltimore and see what we have in
[73]
baltimore all right so we have a few
[75]
here
[76]
there's only three in baltimore as you
[78]
can tell covet has slowed things down
[80]
with the foreclosures which is a
[82]
great benefit to a lot of homeowners who
[84]
are struggling now i'm going to show you
[85]
here if you go back to that main screen
[87]
and you just want to use that
[88]
interactive map you
[89]
choose the state you want to go to again
[92]
i'm going to choose maryland just
[93]
because that is my area so it's pulling
[95]
up
[96]
everything in the state of maryland and
[98]
then you can go through and you can
[101]
filter through the areas that you're
[103]
looking to purchase in so we have some
[105]
in hartford county
[106]
we have some in allegheny county
[110]
worchester montgomery county these are
[112]
all of the homes that are currently
[114]
available for
[115]
offers if you think there is a hud home
[118]
and you do not see it on this list that
[121]
means it is not available for offers
[124]
either it's not on the market or they
[125]
have accepted an offer so if it's not
[128]
here it's not available guys so don't
[130]
waste your gas going out to look at a
[132]
property that's not available to you
[134]
let's break this down here this gray
[136]
section here at the top
[138]
is how you can control the search you
[140]
can
[141]
list view it which is what you're
[143]
looking at right now you can view it
[145]
through a gallery
[146]
i prefer the list view myself you can
[149]
save
[149]
this search if you are logged in
[154]
you can email this search if you would
[155]
like to share it
[157]
you can also view it on a map and it'll
[159]
show you
[160]
the locations on the map of where those
[163]
homes are in that state
[165]
below that is the blue line and that's
[167]
what we're looking at for the individual
[169]
properties we've got the property case
[172]
number we have the address
[173]
price status how many bedrooms how many
[176]
baths
[177]
the listing period when the bid opens
[180]
and the details about the property
[182]
you can sort some of these if you see
[184]
the little arrow on there
[185]
if you know you're looking for a
[188]
specific property case number you can
[190]
click on that
[191]
and it'll put it in numeric order
[194]
low to high high to low so you can
[198]
hit it a second time to go the opposite
[200]
direction then of course
[201]
if you want to search by your price if
[204]
you want to search by how many bedrooms
[207]
if there's a little arrow next to it you
[208]
have the ability to click on it and
[210]
it'll put it in the order of
[212]
up or down so if it's got one you click
[215]
it once it'll have one
[216]
bathroom if you click it a second time
[218]
it takes you to
[220]
2.1 bathrooms i'm not exactly sure how
[223]
one
[223]
has a 0.1 bathroom it's usually a half
[226]
so the listing period it says it's
[228]
exclusive meaning exclusive means owner
[231]
occupants non-profits and government
[233]
agencies only that means it's not been
[235]
on the market long enough for
[237]
an investor extended however is open
[240]
to all bidders so again exclusive
[244]
is for owner occupants non-profits and
[246]
government agencies
[248]
only extended is for everyone let's see
[251]
what's under
[252]
each column underneath here you can see
[255]
the property in the little
[256]
clip that they have the tiny little
[259]
picture of the home
[260]
you can see the case number that they
[262]
have assigned to the properties
[264]
and the addresses of the properties
[266]
along with
[267]
the list price that it's currently at
[269]
and then we have status this is where
[271]
it's going to
[272]
notate this is a brand new listing or if
[275]
you look at this one here it's only
[277]
thirteen thousand dollars
[279]
this little icon here is important to
[281]
real estate agents because it points out
[283]
that on this particular property there
[285]
is a minimum
[286]
commission of a thousand dollars so just
[289]
because this one is listed for thirteen
[291]
thousand dollars they're letting you
[292]
know that the commission is not based
[294]
off the sales price like it
[296]
traditionally is
[297]
they are guaranteeing the buyer broker
[299]
and the listing broker a thousand
[301]
dollars each in commission
[303]
under the details column there are items
[306]
you can click on
[307]
you can view the actual street that the
[309]
house is located on
[310]
if it is in google maps it's going to be
[313]
there you can look at the property
[316]
street which is pretty cool so you can
[317]
kind of see get an idea of what the
[319]
neighborhood looks like
[321]
and you can pull it up on their map
[326]
and you can email that information to
[328]
yourself
[329]
or someone else that you would like to
[331]
share the house with
[333]
now remember when we were able to save
[335]
the search
[336]

[339]
