The deal was contingent upon 60 day due diligence and a clean Phase 1 environmental assessment.

Very clean format. 

My local Airbnb rep said the algo does consider cleaning fee too so try to be lower or even with your competition. 

The moderators have since cleaned it up.

@Jason Tucker  you need to add in your utilities, common area cleaning, and turnover costs to determine if it makes sense. 

I clean it up a little and sell it for more and a higher interest rate.

Or are they moving out when the cleaning is complete?

My figures are below.TaxDeed Winning Bid: $489.00 (My Bid May 2013)Property Clean-up: $450.00 (mowing, trash removal)Taxes & Insurance: $80.00 (2013 & 2014)Sale Advertising: $130.00 (Signage, Newspaper Ads, etc)Filings & Legal Fees: $245.00 (Deed, Lien Releases, Sales Agreement Docs)Total Costs: $1395 (approx)Sold for: $3250.00 (August 2014)That is better than the 25% I would have received if the property was redeemed during the redemption period.

Its against my loan terms, and you cant stay at a prperty that is being shown it has to be clean.

If title is clean, a cash deal can close in 7-14 days.
