Nearly 70 Bank-Owned Homes Auctioned in Arizona, Colorado, Idaho, Nevada, and
Utah



Homes Come with Title Insurance Paid for by Sellers and Will Hit Auction Block
November 12th-14th

PHOENIX, Nov. 9 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Foreclosures continue to
overpopulate the nation's housing market with amazing deals for investors,
first time homebuyers or those looking to trade up. Typically, buyers can
expect to purchase bank-owned homes at a 15%-20% discount off their last list
price.  Hudson & Marshall will auction nearly 70 foreclosed or bank-owned
homes in cities across Arizona, Nevada and Washington November 12th - 14th. 
About 20 of the homes, including properties in Idaho, Colorado and Utah will
be auctioned online and on-site at properties addresses. 

Valued from about $25,500 to $400,000, all the homes come with title insurance
paid for by the sellers. Buyers will be required to make a cash or certified
check deposit of $2,500 for each property which they are the winning bidder. 

"As the housing market trudges down the rocky road of recovery, foreclosed
homes are good buys because they can be purchased at extremely affordable
prices.  Markets like Las Vegas, Phoenix and Seattle have experienced double
digit price drops from a year ago, making it a great time for home buying in
these cities," remarked Dave Webb.

According to the S&P/Case Shiller Home Price Indices data through August 2009,
Phoenix, Las Vegas, and Seattle's housing market continue to take a bruising.
In August 2009 home prices in Las Vegas have dropped nearly 30% from a year
ago, Phoenix home prices declined 25% and Seattle prices plunged 14.7%.

All homes being auctioned by Hudson & Marshall are sold "as-is" and buyers
should inspect properties before placing any bids. Properties can be viewed by
