My background:  Work a full time job in Finance and have excess capital which I'd like to invest through real estate.

If I buy a lien for approximately $1,000.00 and foreclose on it for about $3,000 is it safe to assume I will pay another $2,000 in back taxes (about two years) and another $1,000.00 in fines?

Account Closed, there are some status-symbol suburbs (think Beverly Hills CA), where it's expected that a pool is standard, and then it just becomes a competition between buyers as to whether a rooftop pool, or indoor heated pool, or cliffhanger pool makes the bigger status statement.

The contract I would agree to is one that is assignable: “Make sure to involve a real estate attorney in finalizing the contract to ensure the terms of the agreement are legally sound for all parties.

Some people have been screaming from the rooftops about a crash for 2-3 years now.

The AZDRE will audit broker's transactional files and any violations can result in fines.

Jared, you say you signed with her for a 1 month trial, but in that contract, it might have an automatic renewal in fine print, especially for property she already showed you, herself, so read it carefully.
