I can utilize the MLS to access market data and if you need a realtor, I would be happy to assist.

Would I use then in addition to an attorney or can I utilize their services to both foreclose and clear the title?

The area looks to be a decent area for STR rentals and has potential to be a great investment if that goes well, we won't have a mortgage on the property so outside of taxes/insurance/utilities it should be easy to cash flow.

Figure out all the extra expenses of utilities, management, perhaps hot tub, internet etc. go low on income and high on expenses and see how the numbers look.

I opted to remove them and manage the property myself, utilizing platforms like Facebook Marketplace to find contractors.

But every day investors buy less than desirable property utilizing high leverage debt at high interest rates producing high risk of negative cash flow and built in negative equity.  

Do you utilize in-fill lots from the city?

Most of my utility consumption is gas.
