Auction Sites - Yay or Nay

[Erik O'Grady]

Good morning BP Nation!

I'm newer to RE investing and brand new to investing on an auction site but this really interests me. The questions I'm seeking support on are:

• What are things I should look out for when buying on auction? 
• Who has had success with auctions sites and are you willing to chat :)? 
• How does the process work with a title company pre purchase?
• How important is an attorney in this process? 

The thing that I'm most uneasy about is getting a property with all kinds of liens and major issues with the home itself...who would have thought right? LOL Anyway, thanks in advance for your time, thoughts and energy.  

Moving forward - Erik
