I Broke My Own Rule & Got Foreclosure House With Tenants
I only bid on foreclosure sale properties that are vacant....one came up recently that looked good and I went ahead and bid even though there are folks in there ...I put in my proxy bid and really did not think I would win it since the banks have not been coming off their max bids- but I did ! Does anyone have a sample letter I can send to the current tenants / maybe former owners...I am fine with them staying and paying rent just need contact info etc...I want to sound professional and business like with my first contact. If I have to evict I certainly will just don't want to be threatening till I see what I am dealing with...
