Anyone please share your contact info in a message and I'll be sure to save it and ping you if things progress w/ other seller/buyer leads.

I would recommend DSCR for you, or to continue contacting some other banks.

I contacted the owner, left a voicemail, and got a callback a week later.

I don't understand how you can't track them down.You could stop paying HOA dues, and that will force them to contact you.As for the PM, I would instruct them to hold off on painting until the termite issue is resolved, which includes providing you with contact information of the HOA board.

Just contact a collections agency and send them proof of the debt owed (could be the signed lease agreement or a judgement if you have one).

No PM wants the state digging into their records, so it will usually force them to contact you and negotiate a settlement and make your complaint go away.If that doesn't work, then I recommend you contact an attorney.

So if I was dealing with a seller who was insisting on handling the transfer this way, I would be wondering what the seller is trying to hide... and I would figure it out. noted, i already started contacting some title companies, and found a couple that seem trustworthy, do you have any recommendations>

Both times I have contacted the police, and filed a complaint, and nothing ever happened. 

Also confirm that county maintenance liens are added to the tax debt.Fourth, you can contact your county ordinance department, usually those who handle house condemnations and mowing liens, and provide them with the property tax number, photos of the violation with a complaint from the named neighbor about the risk.
