Buying form an owner that has a private mortgage

[Colin Leid]

hi guys,

Got a lead that is motivated.  Her words are , "I just want this night mare over with"

She's an absentee owner

Currently on deed as owner (per county records)

However, I just learned from her that she financed the home with a privately held mortgage.

She has some taxes owed, outstanding fees with the association and may have a lien.

This will potentially be my first deal and I want some advice on how to approach this situation. 

Thanks in advance. 

Colin
