HUD homes in San Antonio have been selling like hotcakes. While the now expired tax credits helped sell some of these homes the HUD $100 down payment program that is still in effect is largly responsible. Without the $100 down program, buyers are required to bring a down payment of 3.5% to close in addition to closing cost that can run as high as 6% under an FHA loan. HUD also offers 3% closing cost on top of the $100 down program. Buyers with low cash reserves have been buying up homes in the San Antonio area at a quick pace. Over the last 6 months as of July 13, 2010 Hud homes are selling on an avg of 47 days. See the previous 6 months of sales here. If considering a HUD home buyers should consider all options and steps in this transaction with care. Speak with your agent in detail about the pros and cons of this type of transaction or give me a call.
