Ill send you a DM! 

I have some real life experience with this, my grandfather is 88 years old, his wife my grandmother is in failing health (chronic illness is expensive), he has 5 properties right now 4/5 were bought pre 1980 so obviously have appreciated a ton the 5th has probably gone up 5x since he bought in and that’s the one that’s done “worst” now this sounds like an great portfolio everyone dreams of right?

Very often it's because of a temporary hardship such as unemployment, divorce, illness etc.Most sane people don't want to get foreclosed on as long as they see the light at the end of the tunnel (aka hope).

@Devin Scott: Your Comment: "And you will never, never, never be required to rent to someone here illegally" is very ill-informed.

Thanks,Ill send you a message  

I'll reach out to connect you. looks like a great read Ill add it to my list

maybe Ill find a better property that can appreciate better - a 4 or 5 bedroom in Fort Lauderdale area?

Good info, Mr Kaado, ill have it into account, Thanks many.

Between that and the unknown amount of time the investment is ill-liquid, I'm not sure if it wouldn't have been better to just pay the tax and take the money. 

Iagree is not as good as written, so on my 2 star desired props, ill write those out for her and send to her to submit for me.
