Special purchase opportunities
Power of Sale and Estate Sale properties.
These transactions can offer opportunity, but the contract, property condition and timeline deserve extra care.
Power of Sale
A lender sells the property to recover a defaulted loan. The home is generally marketed near fair market value and may be offered with limited seller representations. Review the lender’s schedules, title, condition, occupancy, financing and inspection options with your lawyer and other qualified professionals before offering.
Ask about Power of Sale properties →Estate Sale
An estate trustee may have limited first-hand knowledge of the home, and probate or a Certificate of Appointment can affect timing. Confirm the seller’s authority, included items, condition, vacancy, closing flexibility and appropriate due-diligence conditions with your lawyer.
Plan an Estate Sale purchase →Information is general and is not legal advice. Each sale is different; obtain independent legal, financing and inspection advice.
Start before the search
