I'm going to re-evaluate the pieces regarding the problem solving aspect and make sure I'm conveying the right message.

That really conveys a message.I do have a question (in all seriousness) - what clause do you have in your lease that allows you to tow it out?

They added this clause to the contract:Grantee herein shall be prohibited from conveying captioned property for a sales price of greater than $121,800 for a period of 3 months from the date of the recording of this deed.

The finance restriction conveys with the property.J Scott claims that every once and a while they forget to check the box that starts this BS.

That deed convey's ownership, but does not guarantee a clear and marketable title.

A deed conveys ownership so my assumption was that the HOA foreclosure had already happened and your opportunity was to take ownership of the property. 

At same time tenants don't always speak the whole truth and or convey the right thing.But in your case sounds like it paid off in speaking to them.goodluck on your deal and welcome!

You'd have to research what a referee's deed conveys in NY.

They will also produce a new assignment which conveys ownership of the lien from the seller to you (or your business entity), and ship the collateral file to you.

I think that would convey to about $1,400 per unit in CA.
