I indicated that we should and would consult with a RE attorney, he makes an appointment without me and in which the attorney wanted the certificates.Well, in summary the 2 primary ( real moneymakers) were redeemed within 1 week of purchase.  

this is a belly to belly business.. unless you have 100's leads ... its not wise to do anything but make an appointment for a sit... then use your skills and sales techniques whether they are soft sell like Brian or hit you over the head the J Scott... but you would be amazed at the deals you make when they sounded rough on the phone and were completely different in person.I worked for 15 years shagging leads and doing in home presentations... its night and day from phone and in home.. and a really great sales men can turn someone around on a dime. 

If there is indeed a receiver appointed it suggests there is already a court action pending and someone has stepped in to make sure no more money is taken and to handle the day to day affairs until things are sorted out. 

That is why we have a court appointed official called a Bailiff to handle this matter and NOT YOU!

I personally would recommend going out and trying to get appointments and once you have a deal then contact an attorney.

If you are not going to appoint an agent, then make sure that you are taking a help from an investment company as they know the market in a very well manner and they have loads of home options according to the amount you plan to invest in the property.

They also have a phone number you can call and set up an appointment for advice for a fee of course, Try it you may learn much.www.adventuresintosovereignty.com   When you are at the site click on sovereignty context, foreclosures.

The other option is you can call all the listing agents and setup appointments to meet them at the properties.

I called and set an appointment to apply for HELOC with M&T bank after finding the recommendation in the forums. 

If looked pretty good up until I attempted to schedule an appointment with them and now they are simply not answering phone calls, text or anything?
