Stranger Buys Foreclosed Home, Gives Back to Former Owner
October 30th, 2008
A Texas woman who was evicted from her home due to foreclosure attended the bank auction on Saturday and got the surprise of her life.
While attending the auction to help her son purchase a foreclosed home Marilyn Mock purchased Nancy Orr’s foreclosed home for $30,000 and told the former owner she could move back in and make payments to her instead of the bank.
Ms. Orr purchased the home in 2004 for $80,000 but lost her job and soon fell behind on her payments. She passed her story on to Ms. Mock while attending the auction to see her house be sold. Ms. Mock decided she would buy the house for Orr and had a winning bid of $30,000. She is awaiting funding from Fanny Mae and the sale will be complete.
Such a refreshing and non-controversial story to brighten your day a bit. We still have kind people who want to help others and it warms my heart to have read the story.
