Advertising HUD Homes

Advertising HUD Homes

All HUD registered brokers and their agents are encouraged to advertise HUD as long as they strictly adhere to the following rules:

Property must be listed for sale by the HUD listing broker

Advertiser must not convey the impression they are the sole source of property information or that they have an exclusive or favored sales listing or sales advantage

Advertisements cannot suggest the property is a “distressed sale” – HUD Owned or HUD Acquired is okay – but HUD Foreclosure is forbidden – no mention of foreclosure is allowed

All advertising just have the Equal Housing Opportunity logotype, statement or slogan
All ads must comply with the Truth-in-Lending Act – meaning do not advertise loan terms

If applicable – must include a flood plain notation.

Since Prudential Don Johnson is a HUD broker - as long as you follow the above guidelines - you may post them to Craigslist. Please keep in mind - all real estate advertising must include the name of the brokerage on each page.
