Some experience with this. Yes, they do market competitively since it's their job to get highest value. That said, It can't hurt to approach them about buying the note before they foreclose.
A mix of both, it never hurts to setup a meeting to land an off-market deal. In my experience, the smaller the asset the more likely special servicers are willing to entertain off-market offers

Tried this a while back, but haven't really been able to get in close with special servicers. Believe it or not, most of the ones I've dealt with actually don't know jack sh*t about real estate.
There are a lot of regulatory hurdles you need to worry about in that biz. If you're doing 'off market' deals as a servicer, imagine the headache you can cause yourself if some bond holders decide to sue bc they think you sold too fast, or there was more value than you sold for, etc etc.
Far easier to get it in with ppl working in the distressed portfolios at banks/lenders. Especially smaller banks, not Boa or JPM.
I have experience with this and I think it is definitely worthwhile to pursue the opportunity if you can find it. Having said that, most deals worth doing are controlled by the Controlling Class Bondholder or special servicer, so you would have to approach them about buying the property before its marketed by a broker.
