FAIR MARKET VALUE OF FORECLOSURE

If I am buying a foreclosure from a homeowner and we agree on a specific price well below fair market value is there any legal issues involved? Example: house worth 300k,
buyer seller agree on 150k the balance of the current mortgage.

thanks
any input would be greatly appreciated.

    There is no law governing the FMV of a pre-foreclosure.
    On the contrary, there is a Golden Rule in Investing that says that your profit is made when buying.
    Stick to that rule and be honest in your dealings, and you'll do very well.
    Happy investing.

    Yes there are some rules.

    In California, you must wait 5 days before
    you give someone cash for keys.

    Find out what the rules are in your State to prevent from any recourse.
