Hi BiggerPockets Im at another auction and this one came with great news.

I have a question regarding owner occupied auction properties.

Is there anyways we can assume the debt or buy the house from the bank before it goes to foreclosure and is auctioned. 

We took the plunge and cash purchased our first BRRRR in March of last year via online auction using funds i withdrew from my 401k with the Care act which allowed the max withdraw of $100k.

Tax auction How did you finance this deal?

If it's a property going to courthouse auction, there will be no viewings and you will not be able to fully confirm all potential liens on the property until after close.

I have looked into the Sherriff's auction a bit, but intend on doing more research.

Unless you're in an auction scenario, you shouldn't be looking to squeeze every last dollar out of the asset.

Then you will need to negotiate with the seller directly before it goes up for auction. 

To further flesh out my question.. in the interm, the time between when the bank buys the house at the auction and when they lists it with an agent to sell, can you get the property through other avenues- such as going through the previous owners.
