    There are but they are nowhere near as lucrative as in the US. When a property is foreclosed on, the mortgagee has the legal onus to sell at fair market value.

    And they will be hard to locate. There are no ‘lists’ or website etc where you could find these properties.

    You are better off going for public trustee sales.

    they have to be identified and not all agents get them.

    Contact the public trustees office.

    They look after wills and estates, most deals go to auctions.

    I have been to a State Trustee auction in Melbourne and it wasn’t much different than buying from an ordinary seller. Unfortunately, not much cheaper than a usual auction, and people where more interested because they thought it might be cheaper.

    If anyone knows a site of upcoming auctions, please let us all know.
