Making an offer on a foreclosure (South Carolina)

[Jason Griffin]

So, I found a SFH listed on Auction.com, it's not listed on the MLS...I drove by the house and it appears to be vacant. There was a judgement foreclosure notice (Lis Pendens) taped to the door that showed the owners name and the name of the bank. Can I make an offer directly to the bank and can I make an offer contingent upon my inspection of the home? I'd just like to understand the process...thanks BP Family
