With the increase in foreclosures on the market today, many people are wondering whether there are new opportunities to make money in buying homes that have been foreclosed on.

There are definitely opportunities to make money in foreclosures. There are a few times when you can purchase a home that is or has been in foreclosure:

1. Before the home has been foreclosed on (Pre-Foreclosure)
