31. Forclosure

Wed Dec 4, 2013, 03:28 PM

Dec 2013

I was trying to figure out how this guy was finding these "abandoned" homes and I now know how. When a forclosure occurs the attorney handling the default is required to post a forclosure sale notice in the newspaper of local circulation. This is stated in the Deed of Trust or Mortgage that gets recorded in the County Courthouse. He then waits for the owners to leave the house and then claims that they have abandoned the property. He files theses briefs with the local courthouse to buy himself some time. Problem is the bank has a lien on the property and the house is the collateral. Say the owners have moved out because they do not want to be evicted after the forclosure is done, then this guy says the property is "abandoned' and he takes possession. This isn't going to work out for him because sooner or later the bank is going to win out and they will simply evict him. This guy is a scum bag plain and simple. he is preying on other peoples misfortunes.
