That Makes Cents: Foreclosure Bus Tour

Peter Bohush, DCU Realty
"It's a little bit different than buying a regular house."

For about $25, homebuyers can join a foreclosure bus tour and be shuttled around to see several vacant homes in one trip.

Peter Bohush, DCU Realty
"We see between six and 10 properties. And we look at the properties, we go through the house. We get about 10 minutes per house."

While checking out the homes inside and out, riders can also learn the tricks of foreclosure buying.

Peter Bohush, DCU Realty
"In between the properties we have a little rolling seminar where we talk about issues related to purchasing a property."

Haneet Laffin, Prospective Homebuyer
"I think one of the things that we're learning is that you really have to be aware of what you're getting into."

And the tour is not just for experienced buyers.

Dan Fitek, Prospective Homebuyer
"We're just really starting the process, just looking around, and this has just been a good educational opportunity."

That way you'll know just what you're buying before you sign on the dotted line.

And that makes cents.
