I am going to look at one today. I have my pre-approval letter for up to 55k, have my down payment and closing costs.

3/2/2 1717 sq ft
across the street from the middle school elementary 2 blocks away
built in 1980
Asking price 58,000
Average comp based on sales price 92,206
Average comp based on sq ft price of sold units 58.02
listing sq ft price of 33.78
Original listing price 89,900
DOM 163

When making offers on a foreclosure what is acceptable? should i put together a presentation package with pics and estimates of bringing the property back up to shape? Do I offer an odd number say 50,208.83? Is there a percentage of asking price that mortgage companies will accept? It is held through Argent Mortgage securities if that means anything.

We are soooo ready to buy our next property!
