Property/legal advice on buying a house that’s about to go into repossession?

Question by –x: Property/legal advice on buying a house that’s about to go into repossession?
Looking for a bit of advice as bank holiday weekend and cant contact anyone until tuesday. I have recently heard of a flat that is about to be repossessed any day now. Its my friend’s neighbour and she is still in contact with her. I was wondering if there is anyway i can buy the house before it gets repossessed, would suit me much better and stop the owner being black listed. i also have a mortgage at the moment, would i need to sell that before i could make an offer? And am i allowed to take my same mortgage deal with me? I am really desparate for this flat but dont want to get my hopes up incase its just not possible. Im from Scotland if that makes any difference regarding laws. Would be really grateful if anyone has any experience of this. Thanks

Answer by sizzles1024
Whatever bank holds the mortgage on the place that’s about to be repossessed would rather sell to you than repossess and have to deal with selling it themselves. Properties like that aren’t valuable to banks like the mortgages themselves. If you’ve got a mortgage already, what you need to do with it depends on how much you’ve paid, how much you owe, etc. Do you want to maintain two properties? As far as the laws go, it makes big differences what country you’re in. I’m in the US, but the stuff I’ve said pertains to anywhere.

will the capital gains taxes be charge?

Best answer:

Answer by big_bad_john
There is no such thing as a “qiuck claim deed”.

However, a “QUITclaim deed” does exist.

As for the taxes, talk to an attorney.

I’m not an attorney, but I think there should be little tax issues IF you use the proceeds to purchase another residence. Or it’s a probate situation and you are under the IRS limits on estate value.

But if you’re selling and want to pocket the cash, that’s different. I would think taxes would be due. But since you had the place for many years, you would be in the lower bracket.

BTW, the property taxes will have to be paid. they are prorated to the time of sale.
