Product Description

Representing a purchaser of real property at a foreclosure auction or at a real estate owned (REO) sale can be a complicated and voluminous review even for the most seasoned conveyancing attorney. The panel of experts provides a review of the process, statutes, important cases along with perspectives from those who represent the foreclosing mortgagee, the buyer, and what a title insurance company is looking at. The panel helps guide you through the title examination, the off-record documentation gathering, and other relevant questions to ask during the purchase. In addition, the panel discusses the best practices, traps for the unwary and common issues that arise during the acquisition of distressed property. Bring your questions!
