Is there a way around the cost of a title search?
The duplex is going to go to a foreclosure auction, likely, b4 the end of the year. The owners are way behind in property taxes (to the tune of $15k+) and have taken loans out that were not repaid. The home was built in 2005 and never completed nor lived in. I want to get in touch with the lenders or the ones who purchased the debt. The debts to various banks is over $800K. This duplex is only worth (to me) due to vandalism and general weathering around $90K. I do not wish to pay the $300+ - that at title company will charge in the event of the various lenders want more than I am willing to pay. Is there any way to get a title search on the cheap?
