In TN the bank bids what they are owed


By law? You're saying they aren't allowed to bid less than they are owed? Seriously? Are you sure?

No, not by law - It's just the norm where I live. Our property values have decreased, but not like other areas of the country. Why would a bank bid lower than what's owed if they think they can sell it for the amount owed or more?

I could see the banks initial bid being less than owed if in California, Florida, Nevada, etc. as these places have seen a major depreciation in property values and it's very unlikely that they would recoup what's owed. I'm not in Louisiana but I didn't think property values had decreased this much there.
