Xome Auction - Child Support Liens
I found a property in Pittsburgh that I would like to bid on through Xome.com.
The bank took possession of the property from the borrower in January and it is being auctioned in April.
I pulled the Docket and there are various liens including the mortgage, taxes, and child support.
My question: If I win the auction, will the child support lien from the foreclosed borrower stay on the title when I take ownership from the bank?

@Chris M.as others said if it's REO and listed on the MLS then it's likely free and clear. However if you go to Sheriff's Sale then it's likely you will inherit those.
You need to discuss with a title agency an/or attorney to investigate this particular property.
If you do an an auction through Xome and are granted a contingency period you could probably do this due diligence during that contingency period.
