I would add, with a history of any settlement with any housing creditor.

The ones that get caught pulling underhanded stuff like jacking your rates, calling your loans, or just putting fees on your account. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/04/13/hawaii-su...https://topclassactions.com/lawsuit-settlements/la...Don't deal with snakes, because you will eventually get bit.

They will handle the settlement.  

If it goes to appeal, you could easily spend $10,000 If possible, settlement is a great way to go.

Also, if someone knows a good settlement company and property manager in the area, I would love to know that too.  

I was always more informed than she was since my info came from calling the seller’s closing attorney, as there was an issue with the buyers mortgage company that delayed settlement a week.

I would give a different recommendations if you had a landlord tenant issue vs doing a settlement on a property. 

If you attempt to purchase an auction property and get to the property inspection and it does not pass, can the purchaser make repairs before settlement to close te deal.

Usually you pay for inspection and location or boundary survey prior to settlement and these costs will not be reimbursed.

They insisted I sign a settlement statement which I never did because I wanted the option to sue them if they ever levied any further unreasonable fines.
