Evicting previous owner?

[Marcus B.]

Im thinking about buying a townhouse(foreclosure), but the previous owner still lives in the home. She upset that she lost home. Should I buy home?

Still some information needed to really give you sound advice.

You're calling this a "foreclosure", but often people use that term loosely, so defining some more specific things about this opportunity could get you some other info.

So, is this already owned by the bank? Is this property going to be bought at the "courthouse steps" type auction? If the former, let getting the occupants to leave be the bank's problem. If the latter, you are buying it with all the problems that are in place, and getting occupants out becomes your problem.
