Auction.com renegotation
Good Morning BP forum. I have a quick question for the group. Yesterday i won my first Auction.com home. It was listed as an "occupied" home (I stayed away as the listed asked) so my research was mostly through zillow, county website, and a drive by of the property for a visual inspection. After winning the auction yesterday, my curiosity got the best of me so I went over to the home to see if, in fact, someone was there. Turns out the occupants are gone, but to my surprise the place is completely trashed, far more so than I budgeted for with my offer. My question to the forum is has anyone had any success in renegotiating the contract price after winning a bid? If they come back with "NO" then i think i'll have to walk from this deal. I've put no money in escrow and they have released my initial funds back to me. I there anyway they can hold me to this deal?
Thanks
