Why would anyone buy a home from a bank if they knew the government would undercut their price in a pennies on the dollar auction? Why would anybody buy the guy's house on Maple Street for market value if they knew they could get a similar home on 117th at a fraction of the price?

1. Houses are auctioned regularly. It doesn't crush neighboring home prices, and they don't go for pennies on the dollar. 2. The banks would get the proceeds, so its not like the government would act as owners. If they can force people to pay property taxes, they can force a sale. Here's a question, though. Are banks required to pay the taxes after foreclosing?
