Aug 17th 2009

The foreclosure unit at Grove Garden which got so much interest last month (see post here, and here) closed on Friday for a price of $320,000.  If you recall, my client’s offer was $327,000.  The backup offer and the offer that they finally accepted was $330,000.  As it turned out there was a government lien on the property that brought the final sale price [...]
