Lien on potential SFH purchase

[Rod Davis]

I just spoke to a home owner about purchasing his deceased sister’s house. He told me he is looking to satisfy the lien and put a little money in his pocket. The home is valued at $80k. However, when i looked up the lien records, there’s a health care lien of $89k, dated from 2013. When i asked the guy how much the lien was, he told me that was part of his negotiations and wasn’t going to tell me that lol. Should i just move on? He’s motivated because he doesn’t want the family members involved and he’s elderly himself.
