Before the April auction I visited four REDC properties in upper-middle-class areas. Two were in perfect condition. One was missing an entrance :-O – previous owner tried to do some kind of remodeling, turned front porch into a mini-balcony, and apparently ran out of money before he could finish the path to the side door. One was somewhat neglected on the outside. (It had something like 0.75 acres of land, that seems to happen often when big houses fall into foreclosure)

All four ended up back on the market after the auction.
