2nd mtg lender allowed to sell house - is this normal?

This didnt happen to me but to someone i know — it seems like a very unorthodox situation but tell me if you have seen it it and share your feelings.

2nd mortgage - very small - under $50K with a major national bank. 1st mortgage - over $200 K is with a really sleazy lender. House was appraised over $400K

Lender #2 was allowed to conduct a foreclosure sale, with the stipulation that the buyer has to “take on” Mortgage 1.

A foreclosure sale was conducted in Spring 2019. The buyer won with a bid of $59,000 and this is the reported sale price with the county / city. The buyers are listed as the owners of record.

Fast forward to late 2019. Lender 1 (again with a horrific reputation) either is reneging on the deal or could not qualify the buyer / new owner

They are now suing in a foreclosure, husband and wife that bought the property and the previous owner. The foreclosure is stalled right now because Lender 1 cannot locate the previous owner.

The only thing i could think of is Lender 1 thinks why should we do a deal with the buyers and maybe make 3,000 in closing costs when we can make $200,000 in foreclosure sale

Any thoughts?

North Carolina – “One to Buy; Two to Sell”

I realize I will likely have to contact a real estate attorney but also hoping to hear insights and experiences from others! I have a house in NC that I bought by myself in 2009, and paid off, in full, in 2022. I got married in 2023. My spouse and I have not lived in the house as our "marital residence". We have maintained separate residences even after we got married. (That a separate topic!). I am now selling this house. Realtors have told us that my husband has to sign the deed at time of transfer but I am not convinced since the house has not been our marital residence. The realtors like to use the phrase "one to buy; two to sell", which seems like a broad-stroke statement which is not applicable under all circumstances. And of course, the realtors don’t realize the details of my specific circumstances: I purchased and paid for the house in full prior to marriage Only my name is on the deed And most importantly, we have never lived in the house as a marit...

warning about Biggins and Scott Brunswick

his is a general warning for people who use this agency to rent a property. I am going to share a disgusting experience that I had with the above agency. I was new to the rental experience after a marriage breakdown so I answered a add on Real Estate .com and met a guy in Maribyrnong to look over a apartment . He suggested he was not only going to be my roommate, but he also worked at the company in Brunswick. All looked good and myself and a lovely lady moved in to the apartment in late March. Everything was going well ,we were paying our rent and things were moving forward with 3 people coming from different age groups and different upbringings. Then on the 25th of June out of nowhere 3 Breach Notices appeared on my email from my roommate but on Biggins and Scotts letterhead. I was completely surprised and after trying to reason with the sender of these documents, I then decided I had to call his boss the Director of Biggin and Scott in Brunswick. David told me that he was ...
