How low of a bid does HUD accept?

How much should I bid on a HUD home?
If the listing is new on the market, HUD will generally accept 85 – 88 percent of the list price as net proceeds to HUD. This means if you offer an amount that allows them to net more than 85 percent of the listing price, there’s a good chance they’ll accept your offer. See the 88 percent strategy below.
How do I know if HUD accepted my bid?
Results will be posted each business day by 1:00 p.m. Once a bid is accepted, details are available to the public. You can view the broker’s name, bid date, opening date, and amount of the bid. Accepted bids are displayed on the HUD Web site for 14 days after the property has gone under contract.
How long does it take for HUD to accept a bid?
7 to 14 days
Once HUD accepts your bid for one of its homes, it typically takes 7 to 14 days to receive a fully executed contract from the agency. After winning bidders receive the sales contract, mortgage purchasers get 45 days to close, while cash buyers get 20 days.
Can you back out of a HUD bid?
Let your agent know you want to cancel the bid. Only HUD registered agents can submit and retract bids. A bid can be canceled or modified up until the Bid Open date. By logging into the Homestore site, your agent can select the bid and click “withdraw” to cancel.
Does HUD negotiate?
When buying a HUD home, there is no negotiation process. Unlike a regular home for sale on the market, there is no back and forth discussion with the seller. Instead, there is a bidding process, and the highest acceptable offer will be chosen.
How long is the HUD bidding period?
ten-day
Some HUD homes are offered through a ten-day bidding period, after which you will be promptly notified if your offer has been accepted.

Are HUD homes worth it?
Answer: HUD homes can be a very good deal. When someone with a HUD insured mortgage can’t meet the payments, the lender forecloses on the home; HUD pays the lender what is owed; and HUD takes ownership of the home. Then we sell it at market value as quickly as possible. Read all about buying a HUD home.
