Foreclosure Auctions/Trustee Sales in Utah

Utah Trustee Sales

Homes are foreclosed in Utah at a trustees sale. Trustee sales usually take place at the court house steps of the county seat. This is a public auction, and anybody may bid on the house to buy a house at a trustee sale you should know that:

You must provide $5,000 certified funds prior to bidding.
Must pay off the entire purchase price in full within 24 hours. For people who don't have hundred thousands lying around, financing can be obtained through hard money lenders.
Properties sold at the public auctions are sold without warranties. There still may be judgements tied to the property. The properties might even still have residents needing eviction.
