I want to Fix and Flip. And I have left my information with the neighbor but I don't have any contact information for the seller and it's now vacant. 

Any luck getting in touch with the owner? You could look up the tax address online and go knock if it’s another residence. Couldn’t hurt.

Yes. I ended up getting in touch with the daughter of the owner by catching them at the property. I was able to express my interest and they were willing to hear me out and work together. However, as the story developed and more details came to light. It was the mother who was the owner and she died without a while and there was no legal records to indicate the transfer of ownership to the daughter who I was speaking too. In addition to that there was a very short notice (24 hours) from when I got in touch with the daughter to pay the back taxes before it would be officially in foreclosure. So, to wrap it the daughter didn’t have any legal rights to sell the property and we missed the window of becoming whole on the property had she actually had any rights. 

Still on the hunt for my first one but, consider this a win that I’m having the conversations and learning.

Hey everyone, 

So, I am trying to buy my first property and have been looking on and off the market. I found a property in my neighborhood that is in rough shape. I was able to find out who the owner is and that they are in fact delinquent on their taxes (confirmed through the county tax records) and in a hurry to get out. I was also able to chat with a neighbor who happened to be outside when I drove by. They told me that the owner is still around and back and forth moving their stuff out. 

My question is - now that I have found this property and confirmed they are in a situation where I'm assuming they would like to get rid of it, or face foreclosure. What steps do I take next? 

Thanks,

Hi there,

I’ve worked with both investor clients a clients who are looking for single family homes. With that being said - have definitely worked with more single family home buyers. Looking to grow all around though.

Hi everyone, Matthew here. I’m a realtor from Buffalo, NY who is looking to build relationships, learn, and grow into real estate investing. Relatively speaking - I’m still very new in my RE career (less than a year). I look forward to being a part of the community, forming connections, and learning from everyone’s years of wisdom. Thanks!
