Banks and lending institutions eventually end up owning a home after the home owner stops making payments. The process of the institution taking the home from its default owner is called foreclosure. In Utah, this can take seven or more months.
Banks typically do not like to own homes. They are in the business of lending money, not managing real estate. Each bank has its own policy as to the disposition of its unwanted real estate. Some banks sell their properties as quickly as possible below market value. Other banks fix up their homes and try to sell at market value. Banks will most always sell their homes as-is. This helps protect the bank from further loss or litigation.
Banks are in the business of making money. They will not give away their real estate. In fact, the institution will try to sell their properties for as much as possible. In todays market, a bank may offer a 5-15% discount in order to sell their unwanted real estate quickly.
