Auction Financing

I am considering attempting to purchase a home at an upcoming auction, however I do not have sufficient cash for the purchase. Is anyone aware of financing sources for trustee sale purchases?

Only a hard money lender will even consider providing you financing. No bank or direct lender will touch it. If you have some properties in mind, PM me and maybe I can help you out.
 
Also keep in mind that most lender will not allow you to get a cash-out loan from purchasing a property at the foreclosure auction for 3 to 6 months after the purchase.

Seriously, all you need is a bridge loan until you can obtain regular financing. Doncha think?

I am not sure about the collateral requirements. Ideally, as you point out, this would end up being short term financing.

But what lender will provide you a bridge loan unless they have collateral? I mean, they can lend you the money but it's not for sure that you'll get the property even if you have the money (so the loan becomes an unsecured loan).

True, but I think if he had friends and/or family that could help him he might not have posted this thread.
