So any lien filed prior to the one that is foreclosing will survive.  

I'm second guessing that decision now and would feel a lot better if I paid someone to review things to make sure it is being done correctly since my friend does not do this as his day to day.An agreement was signed prior to my sale, and assignment of the sale contract and escrow sent the proceeds to my friend.

@Jaekwan Lee see copy & paste below:Purchase Agreement Clauses for Buying Tenant-Occupied Rental If you’re considering buying a tenant occupied rental property, there are some documents you want to acquire for review prior tothe closing.

The extra info in regards to me is that I get an extra 4k a month due to my prior service in the military.

To try and set up a landlord policy prior to closing or even shortly after closing would not be recommended.  

They never invest in oakland for example due to those location has highest crime rate in bay area.so expecting all market to work in parallels was bit inaccurate... my forecast never inaccurate since 2009 when I examine this aspect in more detail.

You must have lived in it for at least 2 out of the 5 years immediately prior to selling3.

The seller doesn't want to do the fixes prior to closing but is ok with the 300k credit. 

Was a bad night as I had worked 12 hours that day and driven home 21/2 hours prior to the guest trying to pull that trick.

To make a wise decision, examine your comfort level, goals, local market circumstances, and property management.Good luck!
