| You can find here a link to all the HUD properties. HUD homes are foreclosed properties that were originally purchased with FHA loans. Residential properties become HUD homes when a homeowner is unable to keep up with their monthly mortgage payments and defaults on their loan.

Any buyer who has the funds or can qualify for a loan is eligible to purchase a HUD home. |
