If your goal is to have a little extra money come retirement, I would try to take a HELOC on your house, pay "CASH" for a property either at auction or off market, fix it up, refi your money out and do a 15 year loan, pay down the 401K at a normal rate and take the cashflow from the properties to pay down your mortgages in less time and then at 10-12 years you have a paid off property or two and can sit on that rental income.

Hi folks, I recently (December 31, 2020) purchased a home that was listed as "Auction" on Zillow. 

Are all secondary leans required to be disclosed at auctions or is this something that needs to be researched at the court house prior?

Also, what about auction houses?

We pick them up in foreclosure or the tax lien auctions, admittedly most are in bad shape & the n'hood is +/- C. 

Most foreclosures require cash on the day of the auction.

I have been buying and selling items at from storage, auctions, estate sales as well as a few vehicle flips for the past year.

I’m in the process of purchasing 2  properties in CA that were originally purchased in an auction so current owners don’t have the title lien certificate.

It was a slightly larger home than the others we had bought, and it was our first experience with a foreclosure / auction.
