We're hurtin

Mass is a high state when it comes to foreclosures, particularly Worcester county

See this map for state and this one for Worcester County, which has a total of almost 1600 bank-owned properties featured.

Auburn is on page 153 or so if you sort by name reverse alphabetically (if that makes sense). See if this link works. Many properties under $100K in town, one on school st for $1 (must have some liens on it or something).

On the upside if you have some money, given low interest rates you could pick up some properties for depressed prices!

btw there's probably a way to get this list or if you know what you're doing just investigate on your own to get around the commission they likely charge. Although I'm not sure of the details ...
