You may never see anything come back even after 3 years time which is why you need to be aware of the redemption period, once it's up, take action on a foreclosure to either force the owner to pay or take possession to the property. 

2/ you’re buying from a turn key company so they have to make disclosures to you as well as a closing cost sheet prior to you closing and taking possession.

#4 - I am planning to hold this property - any implications for my husband taking possession of property if something happens (If held in LLC in my name?)

.- When the unit has passed a Housing Quality Standards (HQS) inspection as required by HUD, the resident will sign the lease with the landlord and take possession.

@Chad Zetrouer has the County taken possession of the land?

You will also want to check into how long they’ve been using the driveway as there could be an issue of adverse possession (just google adverse possession if you’re not familiar with the term).

@Lamario Hopson, in Alabama, as in virtually all other states, you must be in exclusive possession of property before you can quiet title.
