Why is it being auctioned off?
Here’s the story: When the builder failed to meet their mortgage obligations in September 2022, the lender foreclosed on the home. In March 2023 the house went into contract for $3,537,500 however the builder breached the contract by failing to obtain the C of O, so the buyer’s 10% deposit was returned. In July 2024, the home was completed and now has a Certificate of Occupancy and is ready for buyer. It is currently listed for $3,499,000.
