It is not possible to register to bid by mail. Our bidding process is the highest bidder wins the bid. Please see bidding instructions on www.bay.realforeclose.com for various deposit and payment methods.
The successful bidder must pay the balance of the bid amount due by 11:00 am the following business day. In addition, fees for documentary stamp taxes and registry deposit fees must be paid at the time the balance of the bid amount is paid. This amount is based upon the bid amount.
Failure to pay the balance due and authorized costs by 11:00 am the following business day will result in the re-advertisement of the sale, the cost of which will be paid from the deposit. Any remaining funds will be applied towards the judgment.
