Sounds like even if this did finally end up on the court steps (1104 Missouri St.) you would only end up bidding it back up with Jpinpb and several (maybe 15 or so others) with Cash in hand,
Maybe it’s time to move on, find another deal, if the deals are not out there you have two choices.
Wait and hope (hope by the way is not a strategy) but maybe end of year will be better time to look (that’s what I keep hearing but then you will be bidding against the ones who keep saying that as well).
Or look in a different neighborhood you can afford that has more homes available to bid on.
