Buyers net bargains at VA home auction
Houston area buyers used credit cards as the Veterans Administration sold 125 foreclosed residences and condos in the largest U S auction of its kind. The weekend sale yielded about $2.6 million with high bids averaging just over $21,000 and a range from $3,500 to $47,000. The properties were seized during a period of mortgage foreclosures blamed on falling energy prices and other Houston economic woes since the early 1960s.
