Should I let my portfolio go up for foreclosure?

John Kelp
Posted

Long story short , didn’t do my due diligence . Purchased not one but two properties from a foreclosure with no title search . Comes to find out each property has a mortgage. Combined with the price I paid through the auction, they are much higher than market value

property 1: paid 100k, owe 170k. Worth 200k. Rent is 1800 and HOA is 400

property 2: paid 280, owe 370, worth 500. Rent is 3500, HOA is 1500.


I have a lawyer negotiating with the lenders currently.

what would you do if you were in this situation? Buy out the properties mortgages and sell it for a loss and try to minimize the total loss? Or rent out, refinance , and recoup money else where knowing what I know now . I used cash for these properties . I’m open to ANY idea . 


location: southern Florida.
