Re: Mitigating risk when buying from an owner before the foreclosure sale.In Reply to: Mitigating risk posted by bperki on November 02, 2001 at 3:35 PM : Hello Ward. You spoke this past tuesday of title insurance, and how useful it can be in protecting oneself in the event of an undisclosed, undiscovered lien laying claim to the property. : I have found, calling various title insurance companies, that this protection cannot be had when purchasing properties at the trustee sale. : Is there any way to mitigate my risk and protect my investment when purchasing properties through this route? : Your guidance is very much appreciated. =•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•= I’m truly perplexed by your post. That’s because I don’t recommend trying to get title insurance before or right after getting title at a trustee’s sale. And in the main, it’s because it’s not available—which was your experience. After mulling this over I think maybe I was speaking of getting title insurance when buying from the owner before the sale. In that instance getting title insurance makes sense and the title companies don’t have a problem with that application.
