How long can a bank consider a bid on a home?

We placed a bid on a bank-owned property ten days ago. We have not, as of yet, received a decision. We suspect the bank, Novastar Mortgage, is holding out for a higher bid. How legal or illegal is this practice?

    Depending on the state, I always thought it was 48 to 72 hours! Do you have a Realtor looking after your rights? If not you need to get one or a real estate attorney!

    If you’re buying a repossessed home from a bank it will take twelve forevers ! Literally it could take 30 days (tops). They are soooo slow, I done been there.

    If you did not put an expiration date on the offer, they can take until you give them a written notice that you are withdrawing the offer.

    This is legal.

    They are taking 90 days in CA right now.

    Have your real estate broker (not the agent) apply some heat, he may get it pushed faster.
