Fishy seller

[Alex Martin]

I came across a local property that seemed to be a pretty good deal on craigslist. I got in contact with the owner who came right out and said that he is extremely motivated to move this property for cash soon, the property is priced considerably below market. I inspected the property which is currently occupied and the tenants wish to remain there.

Upon looking up some information on the property I discovered that on Zillow, not sure about the validity, that the property had been foreclosed on within the last week. Is this something that I could pursue safety or should I run?
