[ Follow Ups ] [ Post Followup ] [ The Forum Board ] [ FAQ ] I bought the 2nd...Did I do something wrong???? Posted by mark on April 08, 2002 at 2:25 PM I need some input on this one... House is in preforeclosure worth probably 112k. First is foreclosing with FJ about 82k...I took assignment to the second mtg of 27k..I got it for 5k. Third is not negotiable and they want all 6k. Here is the story. Lady gave me written authorization to talk to the lenders and get payoffs and such, but did not want to sign a contract or deed if I couldn't promise to purchase the property and clear her name from mortgages. So I got all my figures and in the meantime she said she was going to contact a person who promised to buy her house. I ran ads and scheduled an open house and when I arrived she said she'd just signed a contract with the other investor/buyer. So I left. The next day I sent my 5k cashiers check to 2nd lender and took assignment to their mortgage and planned to negotiate with the investor or even recoup our money at the courthouse. I then sent her certified letter letting her know I now owned the 2nd. Now three weeks later I get a call from the owner who says I went behind her back using information she supplied to get her mortgage at a discount. The owner of the contract told the owner she can go to an attorney because I'm messing up his deal.... Does anyone know if I did anything wrong ... thanks..
