Buy from the current owner or wait for the auctionIn Reply to: I just want to buy posted by Paul Aurthor Anderson on April 17, 2002 at 3:43 PM : There is a foreclosure home that was going to go up for auction. The owner declared bankruptcy. Can I just by the home from the lender? Can I buy the home from the lender before the auctoin? Can I buy from the lender when the first payment is defalted from the owner? thanks =•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•= Paul, The lender can’t sell you the property because it doesn’t have title to it. All it has now is an unpaid loan secured by a mortgage that it is foreclosing against. The bankruptcy stops the lender’s foreclosure from going forward to sale until the bankruptcy court gives the lender permission to do so. So you will have to bide your time until the lender gets their relief from stay. Another alternative is to buy the party who still owns it—the delinquent owner. Follow Ups:
