“Program returns for 2010 after wildly successful 2009 campaign financially assisted several bright scholars from throughout the nation!”

Boca Raton, Fla. — Sept. 2, 2010 — Foreclosure.com today announced that it will reward five more college students with scholarships who can best provide a solution(s) to one of the most troubling issues facing our nation today:

“How could education at the high school level help avert and/or minimize a future foreclosure crisis?”

Foreclosure.com, which received thousands of entries from students during its inaugural scholarship program last year, will accept written essays/plans (800-word minimum, 2,000-word maximum) through its website from Sept. 1, 2010, to Dec. 1, 2010.

Five winners will be selected at the conclusion of the contest and will share $9,000 in allotted scholarship funds. The top prize is a $5,000 scholarship and four $1,000 grants will be awarded to the runners up.

All students must read and agree to the scholarship rules, which are located on the Foreclosure.com contest page at www.foreclosure.com/scholarship.

“Education equals freedom,” said Foreclosure.com Director of Education, Linda Yates. “Often we don’t know what we don’t know – where do the roots of the foreclosure problem really lie? How far back can we trace it? These are important questions. So we are eager to get answers, which is the reason we are excited to review this year’s submissions on how the future generation of homebuyers will be able to make smart financial decisions.”

In addition to the cash prizes (5) in the form of scholarships, winning submissions will also be published on Foreclosure.com.

See what $25 will get you after the jump:

What to look for when inspecting a house

What you see isn’t always what you get … especially when it comes to buying a house.

It’s absolutely critical that you take the time to conduct a thorough inspection before you buy any property. You don’t want to be caught off guard by problems that turn a home from a cash cow to a money pit.

Distressed properties present a particular challenge because you often can’t go the traditional inspection route.

The most savvy distressed property investors rely on a sharp eye and insider expertise to find out which properties are worth their time and money.

The August 2010 edition of Foreclosure.com’s free educational newsletter, “Investment Exchange,” is now available, which gives you (whether you’re an investor or buyer) that insider expertise so you can make smart purchase decisions that lead to sound, money-making property investments.

To lean everything you need to know about “Inspecting the property” click here.

You’ll get home inspection tips that gurus like Foreclosure.com CEO Brad Geisen has taken to the bank time and again … and much more.

Three great reasons to invest in real estate right now
Michael Murphy at MarketWatch.com lays out the compelling, and concise, case (bullets have been shortened): Desperate sellers. Not the homeowners, of course. It’s the banks that financed the mortgages that are desperate…. That gives the few buyers out there big leverage. Little competition. … those investors willing to be patient and do the work will [...]

Michael Murphy at MarketWatch.com lays out the compelling, and concise, case (bullets have been shortened):

1. Desperate sellers. Not the homeowners, of course. It’s the banks that financed the mortgages that are desperate…. That gives the few buyers out there big leverage.
2. Little competition. … those investors willing to be patient and do the work will reap big rewards down the road.
3. Low financing rates. … getting 4-to-1 to 32-to-1 leverage at a low fixed rate of interest is like having someone give you money … rates for 30-year fixed mortgages are an incredible 4.5%. That’s the lowest in 39 years….

To drive his point home, Murphy correctly points out that the real estate summer sales season is almost over. Most house hunters prefer to get settled before school starts and certainly before the holiday season begins to heat up.

Indeed, the time between Labor Day (Sept. 6, 2010) and New Year’s Day (Jan. 1, 2011) is the perfect time to “seriously consider making a low-ball bid on a distressed situation.”
