I fact one of my investor friends who wholesales fixer uppers, puts "Corporate owned" in the listing so investors will think it is a bank owned property. I too am amazed at how unresponsive REO agents are. In the recent boom REOs sold in my area for above fair market price given the condition. I think agents and Banks got used to that. It's a different market now and I see REOs starting to become more reasonable. I hate Wal Mart and I hate bad service. When I see corporate owned I have assumed it is a bank owned property.
