What counts as a distressed property?

A distressed property is usually a house that is difficult to sell through the traditional market because of condition, title, occupancy, financial pressure, or timing. It may still have value, but the seller may not have the time, money, or bandwidth to prepare it for listing. 

  • Major repairs or deferred maintenance
  • Fire, water, mold, roof, foundation, or mechanical issues
  • Code violations or city notices
  • Vacant, inherited, or hoarder properties
  • Tenant-occupied or problem rental properties
  • Tax liens, mortgage pressure, or foreclosure risk
