Does a repossessed property sell at a cheaper price than a normal one although there is nothing wrong with it?

I would like to buy a (private) property that is a reposession, marketed by an estate agent. I assume the seller in this case is the bank? Would they accept a lower offer than a private seller would, as all they need to recover is the loan plus interest owed plus admin. costs? What is the cost of a repossession to a lender? Would they wait around for the highest offer or would they be happy with a let’s say 90% of the asking price? Are they interested in making a profit or all they want is to cover their costs? To make the question simple, would properties that are repossessions sell at a lower price (if yes how much lower?) than similar properties on the market simply because they are repossessions?

Usually yes – however they are normally auctioned so you could pay more than expected!! All the lender wants is to regain the moneys lost (as this is all they are legally allowed to rake) any money gained above this price gets split amongst the occupier & there other debts (normally)

Usually they are cheaper, but the problem for the private buyer is that they are generally sold at auction, so you won’t be the only one interested and of course the problem with an auction is that once the hammer goes down the property is yours so you need to have finance in place and be certain that the property is in good condition. all the best.
i have viewed properties that have been for sale by private treaty on behalf of mortgagee. The agent is obliged to obtain the highest price but may put a time limit on accepting offers.
Normally, repossessed property will go to auction but because so many agents are owned by lenders and visa versa, more properties are now going through high street agents.
