On a sheriff sale, in for closure, can you ask for an extension?

If the sheriff is selling something in a foreclosure sale that means that the owner was sued, lost, failed to pay the judgment and the property is being sold to satisfy the debt.\nThe owner could have gotten extensions during the lawsuit, the post judgment proceedings and the appeal.\nAt this point, time has run out.

Well, a manufactured home is a strange item.  Is this home mobile? Are you selling it with land? If so, then you're talking about a real property sale, and whole bunches of other rules apply.  If not, you may be talking about a personal property sale.\nAnd your question is that they received a bill of sale but did not take possession? Did you receive your money? If so, it's theirs, and any attempt to resell would violate their rights in the property.\nYou could contact them and demand removal (I'm assuming that this thing is taking up space) and/or state that failure to remove will result in a rent charge of ____ per month (whether or not you could actuall collect on that threat is another issue).  Or you can file an "ejection" action, which would result in the sheriff removing the property at the homeowner's expense.\n\nIf not, I think you would need to provide notice that you intend to rescind the contract for their material breach (they refused to pay in a timely manner) and give them an opportunity to "cure" (i.e. follow through with the contract).  This seems like a large sale worth a lot of money, so it would be worth contacting an attorney -- a nice nasty letter from a local Alabama attorney might spur these people into action.  You might also have a cause of action for any dimunition in value or lower price if you have to sell it again.\n\n(statute of limitations isn't the appropriate term, btw... that applies to the termination of different tort or contract actions because someone did not file within a certain amount of time after the harm).

If a notice of dismissal was filed then yes the case is over, they can refile.Make sure there is a stamp that says filed with clerk on it. Proof of service is stating they parties involved were notified. If you still have questions call the clerk of the county the case was filed.

Closings get delayed all of the time.  At least you know about it ahead of time.  Unless your contract says that it has to close by the 12th or it will be null & void it shouldn't be a problem.

Yes he can do this to the best of my knowledge.  I know they can terminate the contract at any time they have cause.

It is an order issued by the court after a reversal of judgement.  It states that the sheriff must restore the disputed item to the defendant, or the proceeds if it was sold.

there is a time when the executor will wrap up loose ends and close bank accts etc-- after that, the 'case is considered "closed"  if you have questions or complaints you should address the person who was appointed to be the executor and try and work things out- if some time has passed & you have not received 'satisfaction' - consult an attorney  thanks  the brain

People need to qualify their real estate questions with information about the State and County they are talking about. Get ready to go to court. It is no big deal. The Sheriff will throw them out after you win the case unless they show up and fight. Depending on what City you live in, that could take from 30 days to 9 months. See an attorney or turn the whole thing over to a professional property manager. People shouldn't do these things on their own. What you will end up losing on your own is far worse than what you would pay a professional.

A suggestion: since you don't say what county (or state) you're in, why not try calling the sheriff's office you owe the money to and ask them?

You may wish to check with an attorney but for the most part the standard practice is this;\n\nSend her a registered letter. Inform her that if the property is not picked up in 30 days it is considered abandoned and under the law it will be disposed of. The property actually becomes yours to sell or toss out.\n\nAfter 30 days she s**t out of luck. Just be sure to send any correspondence registered receipt.\n\nYou do have to retain her stuff but after 30 days and the letter...ha!...no self respecting cop would pinch you.

You may send a letter to the judge asking the case to be sealed.  I would include letter of references from other memebers of the community in support of your request from the court.

I'm sure your Purchase Agreement stipulates that the Seller must be able to present clear title in order for closing to actually occur.\n\nIt doesn't look to me like that is going to happen.  I would guess that the seller owes more money on the house than you are paying, and he can't come up with the cash needed.\n\nFrom experience, if this has been going on for more than a month, you are probably not going to get the house.  \n\nRead your P.A. and see if you have recourse in court, or if you are just entitled to your earnest money deposit back.  But keep in mind, if the seller can't come up with money now, suing him probably wouldn't create more money for him.\n\nTalk to your agent, or an attorney and if your contract allows it, run away.\n\nBTW, you wouldn't happen to be in the metro Detroit area would you?

When you purchase something at a "sheriffs sale" you buy, "as is".\n\nYou are also responsible for ALL the liens and loans on what ever you happen to buy.  Be it a parcel of land, a home or what ever.\n\nBack taxes are your responsibility also.  \n\nSo, its basically a "buyer beware" sort of deal.\n\nIf I were going to buy a parcel of land at a "sheriff's sale" I would go to the County Tax Asssesors, and see what the tax is for that parcel of land.\n\nThen, go to the City's Tax assesors, and see if there are any liens or loans out against the property.  Any overdue taxes.\n\nPlus I would also go to the Engineers office and see if there are any vairances on the property that may hinder you to buy..(such as a leeway for public utilities, or variance for some one to cross your property at will, as in a road or public right of way).\n\nWhen you go there, to the sale, inquire as to how they do it.  In my jurisdiction, the sherriff will offer the property up for sale once, at the 2/3 value, and if no one bids on it, then he will offer it up for what ever price some one is willing to pay for it, the second time.  (Thats when it usually goes for a lo less), so, ask before they start, and see what thier proceedures are...\n \nOh, you dont usually get to see inside the house that is for sale, so, its "as is" an can be completely wrecked, or be in good shape, it depends on how the previous occupants fared, like if they were being evicted, some people are not too kind to a property and will literally wreck the place... (Its a shame, but, it happens).  So, you take the chance....\n\nI wish you well..\n\nJesse

If you go to your question there are some choices on right.  Once of them is extend expiration or something to that effect.
