Hello all,

I am currently looking at buying an 8 unit apt complex and have nearly convinced the owner to do a lease with an option. He wants to know how I plan to structure the deal. My problem is, I have never structured a lease with option to buy. Can anyone give me advice on where to go to find a contract or send me a contract they use? Thank you

Hey Tyronza,

What do you have planned to get leads? Anything besides BP?

Ned, I’m honestly not sure if this CPA has handled IRS tax lien property sales before or not. I’ll get their number and ask if they have sent in the right IRS form, you’re right, it’s worth double checking. That could also put some pressure on the CPA, that could be beneficial... at least at this point it won’t hurt.

Apparently he has several other properties that the lien extends to. Maybe fortunately for me the gentleman I am buying the duplex from is an attorney and has a CPA handling the IRS negotiations. I will definitely let everyone know the outcome, hopefully soon. 

Tom, I'm not sure about the IRS taking a reduced amount. From what I've been told, the lien is $200,000 and my contract is for $160,000. The IRS was sent the contract Sept 22 or so and still no word. Have you bought any houses with IRS liens? How long did they take to approve the sale?

I currently have a contract on a duplex. The day before closing my agent called to inform me the property has an IRS lien against it. We were supposed to close Sept 22. I'm on my second extension now, loan is locked until Nov 30. My question is, has anyone dealt with this before and how long did/ does it take for the IRS to agree to the deal? Its been nearly a month now and the IRS still hasn't approved. 

I unfortunately don't know of any. I'll ask my realtor and title company.

Jason Young at Crye Lieke is my agent, I'm doing the house hacking thing as well. He won't bs you around and he knows what to look for, he's an investor agent.
