$74,950 Foreclosed Home For Sale In One of Idaho’s Most Darling Little Cities

Understanding Foreclosure

In short, a foreclosed property is one that is seized and listed for sale by the homeowner's lender. Any home with a mortgage has what's called a lien on it. The lien is the part of the mortgage contract that grants a lender the power to take possession of a residence after the homeowner stops paying the mortgage.
