3) You must be pre-qualified for the Offer Amount for the property, otherwise, you could lose your Earnest Money. I can help you start the process with any number of lenders in Metro Atlanta. Earnest money of $1,000 is appropriate and it must be in certified funds.

4) Normally, HUD Homes are sold in an "Offer Period." At the end of the Offer Period, all offers are opened and, basically, the highest reasonable bid is accepted.

5) If the home isn't sold in the initial Offer Period, you can submit a bid until the home is sold. Bids can be submitted any day of the week, including weekends and holidays. They will be opened the next business day.

6) If HUD accepts your bid, your real estate agent is notified, usually within 48 hours.

7) Closing is within 45 days of acceptance of your bid.

8) Closing Day! Congratulations! You are now the proud owner of ......
