Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Texas
2nd liens
The home I am trying to buy has a 2nd lien that is foreclosing. Do I need to pay the 2nd off before they foreclose to buy the property. If I pay the 2nd off how do I protect myself so the seller does not decide to sell.

Re: 2nd liens
If the second lien lender forecloses, your contract rights are wiped out. The second lien lender will then own the home.
