I have a foreclosure under contract currently in Baltimore, MD and 2 days before closing the bank came back to us and said they didn't have the title yet and it could take up to 2 months. Is this common or is the bank just taking their time for some reason? Also, would it be appropriate for me to ask for a lower price because now instead of getting a renter in during the busy summer moving season I now have to wait until possibly mid fall?
