Buying off market REO
I was driving and saw a vacant property, after some research I found out who the owners were. While searching for their contact information, I realized they were in the middle of going bankrupt. That Monday the property owner was listed as Bank of America asset division (or something of the sort). I have the number for the Bank of America office. If I contact them, can I negotiate a purchase before the house goes on the market?
