Property Auction News

Press release

Because of the constant influx of new seized properties and the enormous amount of money and time required to maintain and market them, the banks attempt to recover at least some of the money by conducting public seized property auctions.

A seized property is a home that has been repossessed by the lender because the owners failed to pay the mortgage - this is called foreclosure. Hundreds of thousands of homes end up in foreclosure every year. Economic conditions affect the number of foreclosures, too. Due to a variety of circumstances, hundreds of people or businesses default on their mortgages every day, and as a result have their properties seized by banks or other private and government institutions.
