I am to this day finding good cash flowing deals on market that have 20%-30% CoC for owner occupants.

I'd be happy to connect since we're completely new to this and to Arnold.

I am guessing only you would be signing the 18 month lease and this individual who is there to "help" won't be voluntarily offering their signature as a co-signer?

I'm (once again) with Allen on this one.

I'm not sure if they still have that in this current rate environment but they do exist. 

Have you every experienced anything like this?  

My question is this: before the am date of the auction 3 weeks from now, is there any way to find out if the mortgage has been paid and brought back to be in good standing, hence avoiding foreclosure and removed from the auction altogether?

At this point I am reading books, saving money, and looking to make relationships in the investment community.

I agree with Adam on this.

After I posted this.
