Hi, Cheryl, I know this is an ancient post, but I just happened to run across it and it's still relevant and had no responses, so I figured it wouldn't hurt if I chimed in.I'm a landlord and I operate a lead dust sampling business in Philadelphia, Delaware and Montgomery counties in PA. 

So for me in majority part I am just scratching an itch, and I am exercising a muscle. 

I worked with them once and everything went smooth, small sample size.

MelvinPerhaps you can BUY their property from them on WRAP Around financing basis You pay them on a WRAP AROUND Note (eg. perhaps $1.00 over their existing loan balance) of where they can LEASE the home you and also give you an option to buy SUBJECT TO their loan if or when you exercise the option.

The way tax liens work, the certificate holder gets to exercise their right under law to take ownership of the property (get the deed) when the redemption period expires and the owner fails to respond/ repay once the deed process has been concluded.

In the process of BUYING a PURE Option to buy a SFH subject to an existing loan (at a lower fixed long term interest rate)Let say the OPTION "Strike price" to BUY the property IF or WHEN the OPTION is EXERCISED is $300K The seller wants $60K to sell us the OPTION.

In followup to the part in bold above, are these investors purchasing the right of redemption from the foreclosed party in order to exercise that right to "snatch" another investor's deal?
