If you’re buying back a foreclosed or tax-delinquent property (a redemption), traditional lenders usually won’t finance it — you’ll likely need cash, hard money, or a private lender. Talk with a local mortgage professional familiar with foreclosure redemptions to find the best option.

Genowa, in California the right of redemption usually comes up after a foreclosure sale. To buy the home back within your 90-day window, you’d generally need cash or a hard money loan, since most traditional lenders won’t move that fast on a mortgage in a redemption situation. A local lender or attorney who handles foreclosure redemptions can point you to short-term financing options that let you redeem, and then you can refinance later into a regular home loan.

  • Can I buy a house and have someone else pay the mortgage?

    I'm thinking of buying a house for an aging parent. If I put the loan in my name, could my parent pay the monthly mortgage or a portion of the income? I want to help my parent, but I don't want it to appear as income on my taxes or be penalized for trying to help.
