California Foreclosure

One Man's Foreclosure, Another Man's Steal, Wave Of Foreclosures In Calif. Takes Auction Home Prices Way Down, To The Delight Of Buyers - CBS News: "One-thousand homes lost in the real-estate wreckage are auctioned off to a crowd of thousands in Los Angeles - up to 40 percent off, CBS News correspondent Ben Tracy reports.

'Sold!' said one auctioneer with a gavel bang. '$170,000, sir, you're the buyer.'

In Stockton, Calif., bargain buyers tour foreclosed homes courtesy of the repo-bus.

'Obviously we've got a full house,' said one bus driver.

Debra Knowles, a home loan consultant said: 'They're reaping the benefit, unfortunately, of someone else's loss.'

New numbers out today show California among 10 states hit hardest by foreclosures in 2007. That's 250,000 homes taken by the bank."

if the foreclosure results in a deficiency judgment, then this judgment will place an automatic lien on any other real estate that you own, but will be in second place of your other lender..rolex replica
