Attorney contacted me a week later saying they would redeem home and mentioned he would file in probate but has not filed anything yet. 

A couple of hours later I guess round 2, maybe the second 50, went out, which I was not ready for, and I missed the window to respond timely. 

I am not familiar with amending in Turbotax, but one thing to note is on the timeline for filing amends (you have some time still, but also good to be aware): Generally, to claim a refund, you must file an amended return within 3 years after the date you filed your original return or 2 years after the date you paid the tax, whichever is later. 

Now if there is a defect in the foreclosure process, the court may set the deed aside and instruct the Clerk to return the buyers funds but if the buyer later finds that the borrower foreclosed on only had 50% of the title, to bad so sad. 

This is before you jump in and spend $100,000 and 3 to 6 months in buying a $300,000 Fixer Upper House to BRRR or Flip or whatever and waiting to Sell a year or more later on.

Plus, if rates drop later on, your position will only improve.

Of course I realize this will be a crazy, crazy statement for many on here - and that further proves my point...One of my favorite statements buy one of the best entrepreneurs in the world today, Richard Branson, goes like this:"If someone offers you an amazing opportunity and you're not sure you can do it, say yes - then learn how to do it later".

Hi Jamie and All, is this group still going a year later??

A hypothetical to see how people factor costs when rolling equity forward into additional purchases.For this example assume  you purchased property “A” for 100k, and put 25% down. 2 years later you sell it for 125k so you now have 50k (25k from your initial down payment + 25k in equity).
