Yes, but auction buyers pay with certified funds, cannot inspect inside and buy as-is. Most buyers wait for the home to list as a bank-owned (REO) home, where you can inspect and finance.
Yes on most. FHA, VA and conventional loans work when the home meets the loan's condition rules. Homes with major damage may need cash or a renovation loan.
Often, but not always. Banks price to recover what they are owed. The savings show up in condition and speed, so compare against nearby sales before you offer.
A foreclosure is the legal process. A bank-owned (REO) home is one the bank took back at the Jefferson County Public Trustee sale. A short sale is a sale for less than the loan, with the lender's approval, before foreclosure finishes.
