John Topa answered:
Is the house owned by the bank or is the owner in the process of being foreclosed upon? Big difference. If it is bank owned, you can typically buy the home the same way you would any other home.

If it is being foreclosed upon, the owner would have to obtain a payoff statement from the bank and make sure they don't owe more than they are selling for.

Typically the are many attorney fees, late charges, etc. added to a payoff. Make sure this payoff is obtained prior to you paying for inspections, appraisals, etc. Any further questions, please feel free to contact me. 570-344-6091. - Tue Sep 9 2008, 07:13
