On the same hand you have nothing to loose... submit the offer and see what the bank does, if you get no answer... you bid too low... either resubmit or move on the another property...<br/><br/>If the home you saw on zillow really was worth 460 and bank has it listed at 320... most likely it will over bid... I have found Zillow to be out of wack on most values... it is a very very very general range they list.<br/><br/>good luck Sun, 28 Dec 2008 07:40:00 GMT http://www.zillow.com/advice-thread/foreclosure-offer-Q/181880/ 2008-12-28T07:40:00Z I assisted buyer in getting ... http://www.zillow.com/advice-thread/foreclosure-offer-Q/181880/ I assisted buyer in getting properties under the price the bank is asking.<br/>Good credit and a quick close and a good down payment make a huge difference.
