Cliff notes: Dude buys a foreclosed house for 70k, bank, after 2 months, says, "Hey.. Let's get that house back, 70k wasn't enough. We'll blame it on the lawyer. The 32k bid the lawyer put in was BS. Say it was supposed to be 240k and try to weasel around in this statute that gives grounds for contesting things based on unilateral mistake."

The twisting and turning and writhing and squirming the bank's lawyer does is cringeworthy. Don't think I've ever used that word before, but this is that.

Dont have time to watch it all but rest assured, the banks are not your friend and have no interst in 'playing fairly'.
 
The problem once again is these people have no actual consequences for their actions.

The banks & corporations, just like the government (and often times the very tiny rogue group of law enforcement people that causes all the troubles) can do all the evil they want, lie, cheat, steal, perjure themselves and commit all kinds of evil & worse case, they get caught & it's a little "please don't do it again" and either the share holders, the citizens or somebody else's money pays the bills.

It's time we got rid of this hiding behind corporations / governments thing and started going after the individuals who are responsible.
"The Bank" didn't do the crime, some specific person in the bank gave the oaky for the evil and some other specific people carried it out. Time to haul them out of their offices in person and throw them in jail.

During the 2008 financial issue, it was disgusting and criminal, the banks were getting essentially near interest free unlimited loans based on taxpayers future taxes and were then using those loans to rip houses from those same tax payers, often filing fraudulent paperwork and lying under oath on their documents and when they were caught what happened "an agreement to not do those illegal things as much any more". It is totally disgusting what the banks get away with.

There is a reason at the start Judaism, Christianity & Islam all strictly banned the profit making money lenders. But the power of greed was too much & all eventually found "convenient" reasons to get rid of the prohibitions, twist the teachings or just ignore them.

You see these banks with billions of dollars in buildings, reporting huge earnings in the billions.... They didn't create any wealth, nor did they get that rich by providing honest services, just like the government, they made all that money fleecing the people and using the monetary system to enslave country after country.

Wells Fargo finally got busted for just being plain too evil and stealing too much, and what do they get... a little slap on the wrist... They don't even have to pay back all the people they cheated and stole from in full.

Not 'Money' but 'The Love of Money' is the root of all evil. Money, like a gun, will lay in the drawer until somne one takes it out and uses it.
 
Banks to like to loose, no matter what but I hate to be the know to break the news to them, they are in the business of profits and loses and they have to cut their loses some time and move on. A bad deal is a bad deal.
