Re: IRS and their Right of Redemption process.In Reply to: Re: IRS and their Right of Redemption process. posted by Sean Wagle on April 01, 2002 at 11:55 PM : : IRS won’t redeem unless they have someone agree to be a “guaranteed bidder” by depositing with IRS a cash guarantee in the amount of 20% of IRS’s planned opening bid at their redemption sale. : This is interesting to learn. It sounds like it isn't really the IRS you have to watch out for, but other foreclosure specialists. If your purchase was too "plum" then someone might take it away from you by joining with the IRS. : Although, this strategy wouldn't win you any friends in the auction pit. It's kinda like betting with the house at a craps table... So that's why it's important not to visibly fix up the property nor evict the occupant for the 120 day time period. I go to the extent of renting to the ex-owner for 90 days and explain to them not to cooperate with anyone who wants to go inside and look around. I figure that nobody wants to put up a cash deposit without looking at the interiors first. So if they can't look maybe they'll pass. Follow Ups: Post a Followup:
