The good places to start investing at the moment are places within a 10 min drive from main urban centers, and which have different types of residents (not just tourism, not just workers, etc).Feel free to reach out in case we may be of assistance.

If a warranty deed has been filed or even a memorandum of sale or a lis pendens, it makes getting clear title virtually impossible without the co-operation of the one who filed or having assistance from an attorney and maybe a long, costly, lawsuit. 

@Shannon Wright can assist ~ the property may have to go through probate...

So to end this post, if anyone happens to know of someone who can provide such knowledge or who may need assistance that would be amazing! 

Hi Jonathan- We are also in Greensboro doing property management; fix and flips; STR and Mid Term Rental management; assisting local investors with finding, purchasing or selling investment properties, etc. 

Quote from @Shane Haas: Looking at purchasing a foreclosure cash (with help from parents), and then financing the home shortly after renovations are made. 3 questions: Are their issues with them giving me funds to assist with purchase?  

I am working with a nonprofit organization that will be using this home for a program that is geared strictly to homeless veterans to find them suitable housing and assistance with finding jobs.

I feel like it would be great to trust a property management company on all of this, but it would be hard not to step in if you could do a better job at screening bad tenants (eg screening HUGE future problems).I initially managed properties myself, but now I delegate that responsibility to my business partner, personal assistant, or a property manager at my brokerage.Most PMs I know will send you an applicant for final approval and you can get on the phone with them and ask them questions

This includes the strategies and actions  you employ by being able to do your own deals without any assistance.

For example, I’m currently assisting a municipality in purchasing a 200-unit complex that cash flows, ensuring long-term stability for their housing needs.Our Program’s Unique ApproachOur organization is specifically geared toward the Native American population—a demographic that often faces significant systemic challenges.
