Home Foreclosure Auctions: What Not To Do

Make sure you do a title search. If you get a deed signed by the owner you don't want to then find out about other liens on the foreclosure home you just bought, that you just inherited. Watch for other mortgages no matter what position it's in:

1. Mechanics liens for work done and never paid for.

2. Assessments from any government agency or improvement district.

3. Tax liens - property, federal and state.

4. Judgments.

6. Order title insurance to protect your self.
