Negotiating Medicare Lien prior to Foreclosure Auction
Has anyone had any success negotiating a lowered payoff for a medicare lien on a property headed for foreclosure auction? My seller is on hospice and her old house is scheduled for lender auction soon but comes with a substantial medicare lien. From what I'm reading the medicare lien will be wiped out after the foreclosure, so I'm wondering if medicare will negotiate with us. Has anyone done this before?
