Does anyone know if you can contact a bank that has a property on auction.com to submit an offer and forego the pains of using auction.com?

Did you say "is on pain meds" ? 

Hey Guys,I was looking at the tax records in my area, Houston Texas, and I came across a property in an area that is under going gentrification.

Reasonable people will not expect you to hurt you or your family, but will appreciate whatever you can do for them, assuming they can see past their own pain.

., I get the pain. 

Short term renters are an even bigger pain, and they constantly want refunds for small things that may go wrong.

You will hear from others that the 203k takes long and is pain staking - that normally comes from not being prepared.  

Overall it's a pain but definitely doable.

At this point just looking for the least painful way out and or long term hold.

Depending on the size you had in mind you could use a combination of direct mail campaigns (works better on smaller properties < 50 units) or work through brokers (works across properties sizes and least painful approach).
