I signed up for a 5% Down Payment Assistance Program and MCC Mortgage Credit Certificate Program with TSAHC here in Texas.

You MUST get an estoppel certificate from the tenant that corroborates the new lease.

Since we bought REO, seller, which was the bank, dictated title co, and they were not great.Second one was an unrecorded death certificate, to clean up chain of title and take a spouse off. 

A little different being in the house but it would stop you from jeopardizing your rental certificate.

If you buy a tax lien certificate from the county (the new online sale by county), what happens to the subsequent year taxes if the owner does not redeem the tax lien before the following year taxes are due.Can the owner directly contact the county and pay the next year taxes when they become due Or is it required to let it go to the next year tax lien auction where the original tax lien investor may not get a chance to buy.

You should have received and reviewed leases before closing and had tenants complete estoppel certificates.

Making a home completely lead free will cost you more money than doing the bare minimum to pass inspection or just to get a lead certificate. 

We understand that delinquent taxes go to auction and are purchased and the owner of the property has a certain amount of time to make the certificate holder whole plus fees and interest.

If you plan on renting it out later, you may want to check on Lead and get a Lead Safe Certificate.

Is anyone else running into the issue of getting tax certifications in Delaware County for end of month closings?
