What is a REO agent?
A REO (Real Estate Owned) Agent specializes in managing and selling foreclosed properties owned by banks or lenders. Their responsibilities include assessing property values, coordinating repairs, marketing listings, and negotiating sales.

Many REO Agents find that developing strong vendor relationships and maintaining detailed documentation are key to staying ahead in this fast-moving sector.
How do I become a REO agent?
