Is this seller motivated?

I talked with a seller who contacted me through craigslist. He texted me once, and I didn't respond for a couple of hours, and then he texted me again. Then, after the second text he sent me, I responded and we talked on the phone. He says his house is about to go into a foreclosure auction on July 27th. He said he will move out in 2 weeks if we come to a deal. The only problems are that he thinks his house is worth 220,000 but the comps I looked at suggest his house is 175,000 and his house is 50 mins away from where I live. Do you think he is motivated to sell and should I meet up with this seller or will it be a waste of time?
