Opportunity or Blackhole
The owners of a house are in a bad position and I believe they are going to lose the house.
According to the neighbor: The husband is in jail for hitting his wife . The wife is in a domestic abuse shelter, found out by calling a number from some database. (I immediately stopped calling and searching when I put it together)
Recently bank looking people went to the house and secured the house and a crew mowed the lawn…
The house has been vacant for at least a few months.
The house hasn’t had any posts of new liens (online, I will go to city hall soon). $25,000 in equity from what I figure.
I would love to help the victim by either selling the house, wholesaling, lease to own or anything…
Maybe I could have a female reach out but I don’t believe they should call a shelter.
Do I leave this one alone and find something else?
Can I buy the tax liens if they come out?
