Pre-foreclosure; Auction; Bank-owned; FSBO; Resale
Any knowledge at what determines the housing status would be greatly appreciated, it doesnt have to be too detailed, I just want to be able to filter what I need.

Pre-foreclosure - this means the bank has given the owners a chance to become current on an overdue mortgage.
Auction: home is foreclosed and going to public auction.
Bank-owned: the bank has foreclosed and taken back legal ownership of the property.
FSBO: For Sale By Owner
Resale: Being sold after prior ownership.

Pre-foreclosure would be a house that is currently behind in payments, but not yet in foreclosure.
Auction would be a house that was foreclosed and auctioned off to the highest bidder.
Bank-owned would be a house that was foreclosed and the bank has taken back ownership of the house. It hasn’t yet been sold or auctioned.
FSBO - For Sale By Owner
Resale - not sure the context, but probably means it was sold one way or other.
