How do I find out more about a foreclosure sale?

Several people have recently asked me how to find out more about upcoming foreclosure sales.  They realize that they can find Harrisonburg and Rockingham County foreclosure sale information on this web site, but if a property of interest is being sold, they’re not sure what the next steps might be.

Typically, very little information is available about a property that will potentially be sold at a foreclosure sale.  Sometimes, the property is also listed for sale, and you can easily check that out using the Quick Search on my real estate web site. Beyond that, you’ll need to start looking through public records (and other places) to find out whatever you can about the property.  You’ll find links to online information about properties in Harrisonburg and Rockingham County in the Resources section of my HarrisonburgHousingToday blog.

And if you’re having trouble finding the information you are looking for, feel free to call (540-578-0102) or e-mail (scott@harrisonburghousingtoday.com) me.

111 Brookside Place, Harrisonburg, VA

This property is located in Westfield Subdivision, and is assessed at $196,300.  The first deed of trust, however, only had an original balance of $135,960.  Thus, a decent opportuntity may exist to purchase this property and obtain some equity right off the bat.

The foreclosure sale will take place on September 24, 2008 at 3:15 p.m. at the Rockingham County Courthouse.
