A HUD home is a foreclosed property owned by the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).

In an Effort to reduce it’s inventory of homes, HUD is temporarily offering a $100 down payment to purchase a HUD home for owner-occupants using FHA financing!

Here is some information on the $100 down payment program for purchasing HUD homes:

• Sizable sales allowances that can be used to pay closing costs, make repairs, or pay down the mortgage amount
• Broker bonuses for real estate brokers that close owner-occupant sales
• As an added incentive, HUD can give borrowers up to $5,500 at closing for repairs to the property.

Countrywide provides FHA financing for these sales, subject to the terms of the contract executed by HUD.

 Here is a link to search current HUD homes for sale in the area.  There are not too many HUD properties in King, Snohomish and Pierce counties yet… but that could change:

As with any government program, there is a bit of red tape and a few hurdles to jump over.  For more information, give me a call. 

 Happy Hunting!
