I am supposed to receive a prelim settlement statement tomorrow.The purchase price is $45,000. and needs $10k in rehab to make rent ready.

Most topics are when divorce is happening or already had, not prior.My question is -- are the properties in LLC protected from a divorce settlement?

I would have very little EMD at the contract time if any, an EMD can be provided say 90 days prior to settlement.

If that is the case that tax liens will be paid off at settlement and you will be able to receive title insurance.  

The property was never mentioned in 3 prior estate settlements so we were never notified of such.

Hey James - I can't comment too much on the financing side of this as I'm not a lender, but I believe you will need to have the property rezoned PRIOR to settlement if you are going FHA.

There is an assignment in standard sale contracts to give a buyer the option to receive loss proceeds or avoid the sale after contracting and prior to settlement.

Debt settlement agency called suggesting I cancel all of my credit cards and I might be able to get a lower interest rate and/or reduction in principal.

Ignore the call, go to settlement, the closing agent can contact the lender or trustee for the amount required to pay off the lien.

Instead, you just have to get them to agree to pay $XXXX in closing costs - that's much easier to negotiate (and seller paid debt, for all intents and purposes, is written on the settlement as a closing cost).
