Foreclosure auction property

Kevin Harrison
  • Middletown, DE
Posted

I’m looking into purchasing a property at auction. The property is currently posted on the county sherrif’s page with a mortgage company and amount owed. My question is this: before the am date of the auction 3 weeks from now, is there any way to find out if the mortgage has been paid and brought back to be in good standing, hence avoiding foreclosure and removed from the auction altogether? Are there any tools or methods to find out the current standing? (Still in default or paid up)?

As far as I know, the county does not update the list of properties going to the foreclosure auction. Unfortunately, I think potential buyers have to show up at the auction and will find out at that time if the property is still being foreclosed on or not.

Thank you all.
