If you received notice/confirmation that rent was to be paid by the NJ VCCO, you can contact them directly at (877) 658-2221. 

What is an easy way to get in contact?

I found one, who was able to grant an exception for the DSCR ratio and close the loan.I contacted The Mortgage Shop after the fact with a full history of what had transpired and asked for some compensation.

Some thoughts that go through my head......Who do you contact to get current values, after renovation values to see if this process is even worth it? 

@Travis GuttingAssuming you are trying to keep things low-budget, here are some options:Driving for Dollars – Look for distressed properties and contact owners directly.

I contacted the city, but the inspector wasn't very helpful.

I would offer them cash for keys, or contact your attorney and start the eviction process if they decline.

I decided not to contact the foreclosed upon owner (who lives in the house) about moving and redemption rights before the district court approved the sale. 

I have an available and reliable contact in Chicago, but am concerned about that time window.

Feel free to reach out and I can share her contact info with you.
