With foreclosure, a bank takes possession of the house, then resells it at a mortgage auction to the highest bidder. If a bank receives an offer that is close to market value, it may be more likely to accept that offer instead of foreclosing.
What happens when a bank buys a foreclosed home?
In the event that a foreclosed property is not successfully sold at auction, the bank acting as the mortgage lender will purchase the home. At this point, the bank will likely attempt to sell the property as soon as they are able in order to salvage whatever they can in terms of value.
Do banks profit from foreclosures?
Neither the homeowner nor the bank greatly benefits from a foreclosure sale. Lenders offer multiple avenues including payment arrangements, short sales and loan modifications to avoid a foreclosure scenario.
