That is if your state has a 1 year redemption period.If you can't get the property for this amount or much less then you may as well just buy houses from motivated sellers off the MLS or Craigslist and then you would normally get a General Warranty Deed.You should also factor in about 4k for a quiet title should you ever want to sell the property at a retail price.If you are buying this lien out of state you may have extra expenses that you would not have if the property was local.Hope this helps.John

I will say this, may a giant sized meteorite land on this jerks head!

Regarding Raleigh Homestays ordinance, I contend that the city, with their ordinance, violates NCGS 160A-424(c) in all respects: "In no event may a city do any of the following: (i) adopt or enforce any ordinance that would require any owner or manager of rental property to obtain any permit or permission from the city to lease or rent residential real property or to register rental property with the city... ; (ii) require that an owner or manager of residential rental property enroll or participate in any governmental program as a condition of obtaining a certificate of occupancy; (iii) levy a special fee or tax on residential rental property that is not also levied against other commercial and residential properties... " Attorneys out there, please chime in.

For example R4 is a very well known builder in the Riviera Maya (Tulum, Cancun, Playa del Carmen) and realtors will tell you that you can't go wrong with them.

I made it to the one in May as well. 

Hi Sean,I have been living in Tulum for about 3 years, where we have invested in real estate and currently operate our own architectural/ real estate agency, Riviera Maya Property Consultants.

May as well keep it in-house.

But I guess we may as well start the replies to  Realtor says "You're a waste of my time"

My guess is fees are eating your lunch.  80% of FAs don't beat the market anyway, so may as well invest in no load index funds.Exceptions to index funds would include a large, complicated estate. 

@Maya Clark Please send me info on the other CPA as well.
