[quote=sdrealtor]Unless you plan on buying a high-end home (think auction price above 750K minimum) I personally dont beleive this is a viable strategy for 99% of the people. Even above that I dont think its viable for 90% percent. Auctions get cancelled over and over again. The waters are full of sharks with more cash, experience and information than the layperson. The pitfalls are potentially huge.

The professional investors go everyday and buy the best deals. They dont go to buy a specific home. The average joe looking to buy a specific home faces enormous obstacles to success. The only buyer I see this as a viable strategy for is someone willing to spend about $1M or more for a house that used to be $2M+. A $2M peak priced house is going to be a great house anyway you cut it and if you can get one for 50% off you may not be so particular regarding you own preferences.

I’m not saying its impossible but rather extraordinarily unlikely to be truly successful for the average homebuyer.[/quote]

Got it. Understood. Good, good info. Makes sense. Sorry to booter1 for the highjack. I think the original question was :

Submitted by booter1 on January 13, 2010 – 6:08am

“With more and more of the high-end homes ultimately making their ways to the courthouse steps (after numerous delays/attempts at loan mods,etc)we have been considering purchasing a higher-end home when it hits the courthouse steps as a potential way to get a deal.

It seems like there is less interest from “flippers/renovators” at the high end for homes in good condition.

If one purchases a home in this way (all cash) and then seeks financing later on- what are the risks/implications?

-Is it a “recourse” loan because it is post-purchase? HLS?-”

So a pre-approval from a bank will in no way work? What about a Bank Rep working on your behalf. And our bubble-info friend types, work only with those people with 100% funds in the bank.?

Been wondering this for awhile…take it easy on the new guy ok? I’m just trying to get prepared for the coming months, with as much info as I can herd together.

Sorry for the slight thread jack.

Excellent! Excellent! Excellent!

Sadly, today’s culture of grown adults don’t comprehend these Constitutional perspectives. To some degree I am guilty myself.

In my earliest years I learned these concept in about the 5th grade.

Today my Children do not learn this at school.

One generation ago…dare I say…the children were taught these concepts in…about…the 3rd grade.

Two generations+ ago,…every first grader understood what made the country different than other countries.

I think in my Introduction thread a couple of spam type posts were made but disappeared the next day(thanks to your new system?) Anyhow, maybe it’s a “new guy” thing and the system is “learning”.

But I wouldn’t know about these things I’m just a renter…LOL Kidding
