Foreclosures scheduled for Auction: We actually attend the Foreclosure auctions on a regular basis. They are either held downtown San Diego on the courthouse steps or at the Courthouse in El Cajon. These properties are ones that the lender was not able to work out a viable solution for the current homeowner by either refinancing them, modifying their loan, or facilitating a short sale. In this case, they take them to the foreclosure auction to offer them up for sale to 3rd party investors. There can be a lot of great deals to be had at these sales if you really do your homework and are diligent in your efforts. Some important things to note about these sales:
- You have to pay cash on the spot if you are the winning bidder (Via Certified Cashiers Check)
- You can't buy Title Insurance, which protects you against any unknown or past liens
- The properties are sold in completely "as is" condition
- Many times the properties are still occupied by the current owners or tenant and it is up to the new buyer to handle the eviction process at this point
- Many times if the property is occupied before the foreclosure auction it is impossible to inspect these properties up front
These items listed above could really come back to haunt you if you don't thoroughly do your homework, however they also many times allow for great opportunities.
