Made a mistake? how much was this worth?

Posted by Nick(CO) on November 04, 2001 at 11:07 AM

Readers:

I recently passed on a (Colorado) foreclosure because I did not
know how much the foreclosed lien could be worth. Please let me
know what you think:

1. The lien in question was granted by previous owners.
Originally 60K now at 40K. Would be minimum ~43K at auction.

2. Currently home is incumbered by large mortgage. Sale price on
house ~175K, original loan amount for current owner ~145k.
This newer lien was filed after (9+ months) the lien in
default.

3. Of course the name on the property and the name on the lien
being foreclosed do not match. The current owner (and pervious)
may not have any idea what is going on. Or think that the
other is responsible for the loan.

4. I assume the title company for the new owner made a mistake
in allowing the new loan to go forward. (At least until the
previous lien was discharged.) At minimum they may be
responsible for the 40K.

The question is: What is the maximum amount that the foreclosed
lien could be worth. What is the best route to get to that value.
