@Samuel Boyd what are some of the best buying opportunities in my desired price range in your opinion?

show up 2. prof your funds to the crier  that's a Cashiers check made out to the Trustee service for at least the minimum bid plus a buck... most items in our markets open in the 100 to 500k range.. rare you have a sale for less than that . at least in the bigger metro areas.3.

We have agreed to look for something in a lower price range.

I am seeing houses  over priced and I see lot of 1980s built houses when I am looking at for my price range .they are not turnkey either hvac issue or some other issues .I am looking at Steele creek area not sure whether I need to change my search

Luckily most are in the several million dollar range.

Some of the stricter regulations you could see include an 8% transient occupancy tax, the owner (you) having to occupy the residence for 180 days per year, reapplying every year for a provisional use permit, limiting number of occupants, and special permit fees ranging up to $500 per permit with a public hearing per permit.
