FSBO after sheriff sale
Hello BP community! I want to purchase a house (FSBO) in Michigan from an owner who's house was sold at sheriff's sale. In Michigan, owner has 6 months to redeem if they come up with the cash (49K in this case). There are no junior liens that would be reinstated if owner redeems.
My Question: Since owner will need to use my cash (purchase money) to redeem the property should I hire an RE attorney, or can I find a title company that knows how to do this?
Would love to hear from someone that has done exactly this. Thanks!
