I’ve heard Wells Fargo only offers cash for keys if someone in foreclosure hasn’t moved by the end of their redemption period to avoid the eviction process. I thought this was originally set up to avoid the outgoing homeowners from trashing the house. Which I’m sure it would in that scenario but isn’t that leaving many more houses vandalized, trashed, or stripped? Wouldn’t you want to be more proactive to assure the property is marketable?
