We are interested in a home in Florida that has been foreclosed on and is now bank owned. It was listed before as in foreclosure then was taken off the market for a while, but is now back on the market as being owned by the bank. Considering that the market has not been doing well in Florida and no one has purchased the house so far (it’s a fixer upper with five acres close to a bay and maybe 45 minutes from the beach), is there a chance the house may still be there in August when we will start putting in bids on houses?
The first two sentences are redundant.. Sorry!
