Sounds like its been recently taken back by the lender, or is in the process. Eventually, it will pop out onto the MLS. At some point its like a sign will appear that give a contact name in case of emergency. That's probably the listing agent. Watch for that and try giving them a call when it appears.

That said, buying REOs is a numbers game. Look at 50-100, make 10-20 offers, buy one. Don't get wrapped up in any particular house.

Your post is very difficult to read. Capitalization and proper punctuation would help a bunch.
