you could buy the first and take the property to foreclosure yourself and wipe out the juniors. However, the juniors could bid their mortgage which would get them the property adn you would get the face value of the first or $8,000. With as much equity as there is it is doubtful that the first would give a big discount, but as they say it does cost anything to ask.

Kerry,

If the numbers are as you say they are, you may have a deal here. Does the house need any work? Also, what part of PA are you in?

The first mortgage is PITI.So, three months behind.
