Handling Current Residents after foreclosure

[Craig Steltz]

I'm curious how most of you handle evicting current residents after obtaining the lien to a house. In my case the houses I'm looking at are higher end. 200K and higher homes. In Ohio at least that's a decent house :)

Do you knock on the door and ask them to leave? Or just to see if they're living there? Do you call them on the phone?

I've seen where some suggest offering to help them with the first months rent to leave.

In Ohio you can go through legal steps to get the current residents physically removed but it seams like would be something to attempt to avoid.

Just curious how you all handle this issue.

Thanks OB
