Usually the answer is "real estate owned." I've also heard that it's "real estate, other" which is what accountants call the real estate owned by the bank after a foreclosure. "Other" to distinguish it from productive, useful real estate (branches, that sort of thing) on the books.

I've also heard it called (B)ORE for (Bank) Owned Real Estate.
REO? Aren't they a musical group from the 80's?
Oh, yeah, I forgot. That was REO Speedwagon. oops.
