Thanks @Thomas Hart,Funny you say that because I myself have a business partner and we absolutely policize EVERYTHING.

Anyway, the 2 primary options I would explore (not legal advice, KT, SB and the legal advice police) personally, if it were me, in my area - would be to buy it after the foreclosure (which has the advantage of a clear title minus tax and utility liens) maybe through a 203k loan like Steven J., there are probably better opportunities out there.  

You'll understand this Mark: just because ATC tells you that you are cleared for the approach, you wouldn't descend below minimums if the runway environment is not in sight.

It is a conservancy trust, and its purpose is to conserve the assets we own for the benefit of future generations of my descendants (my "community").  

Just a process improvement suggestion...Have the messages in the inbox display in descending, chronological order...most recent to oldest.  

I'm a 4th generation descendant of French Canadians out of Montreal.

This registration helps the police monitor vacant properties and, I believe, helps pay for the city to cut the grass so it doesn't show up on the tax bill (don't quote me on that).  

But there was an assisted living home across the street who continually called the police and we received a number of noise violations for doing nothing wrong except being 20 something college kids with weird hours, much different than a senior living center. 

The neighbors were happy, police respected our new style of operation, and we proved something in the process:A property will attract the tenants that it deserves.Our residents are decent people who are down by circumstance (lots of divorces and down-sized white collar workers), not because of bad lifestyle choices. 

Check with an attorney.I cannot recommend you break the law but there is no Bird Dog Police.
