As they say "When life gives you lemons..."

The $450K is probably the amount the owner owed the Bank.The sheriff does NOT list the upset prices.I would say the most important things to look into before buying at sheriff sale in NJ:1. tax liens2. condo liens3. primary lien that might survive the sale4. oil tank or other contamination - need of remediation5. know if property is occupied or vacant6.

I really want to turn this into lemonade fromt the lemons it is in right now.Thanksjohn

I worked with an oil service company, but was unfortunately laid off and chose to take control of my circumstances by investing in my financial education.

I also own Denver Oil here in the mile high city.
