Actually, no, all the outsourcing companies I found will do various levels (based on client requirements) of REO activity on SFRs. They’ll do drive-bys, all the way up to full interior/exterior inspections, evictions, loss mitigations, workout plans on pre-foreclosures and REOs, and even evictions. Then they’ll market and sell.
I’m just curious about whether they are a waste of time for investors looking for bargains. I guess no one knows, or I’d have received a reply by now.

I’ve found some information regarding companies who manage lender’s REOs. I’ve included an ad for one of them, below. I wasn’t aware that these companies existed, but now that I know, I can see how they could be very useful to large lenders.
But, my question is this: for any of you that already know about these companies, are they a source of good REO leads, or is it too late by the time they get the properties to manage? Will they accept low offers in an effort to liquidate their assigned inventories, or do I need to forget about them because of the added middle-man expenses involved?
Thanks in advance.
