Everybody lines up at the courthouse on sheriff's sale day. Only thing, everybody else knows about it too, especially the realtors, and it usually sells for close to what it's worth.If the property has hidden liens – other loans, an IRS lien, a contractor's lien, etc. – it's possible you'll become responsible for them after purchasing it. That could instantly transform the biggest bargain you ever saw into the most costly mistake you ever made. Hope you got a title policy.
