Buying a property from a living trust
There is a property that I wanted to purchase a couple of years ago but came off the market for unknown reasons at the time before I had an opportunity. It is now showing in pre-foreclosure and a law firm is listed as the trustee and the house is part of a living trust. I would assume that it would end up in an auction but I'm not sure.
Has anyone dealt with purchasing properties from a living trust with a law firm listed as the trustee? Who should I contact? Are there RE agents who specialize in this type of transactions? Any information you could provide would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Talk to the attorney handling the trust. They should be able to sell without an auction.
