$2,054,750 loss... ouch. Anybody know how much was the bank and how much down was used in '07?</blockquote>
Oh, you'll love this....the buyer purchased the property for $4,201,000 on 3/28/07...Hamni Bank provided a first mortgage of $5,000,000 on 4/25/07 and then WAMU provided a second mortgage of $400,000 the very nice day...total loss to the lenders = $3,253,750.</blockquote>
So potentially (but not likely), the owners could have walked away with $1,200,000.00 cash? WOW!</blockquote>
Yup, and the best part is that it was tax free.
