It's my understanding that if your property is pre-1978 and you're disturbing x sq ft of area (think it's 6 for interior or 20 for exterior), then you must be lead certified or use lead certified contractors if you're reselling or renting, may be exempt for owner-occupied, unless your state offers another option, like a lead-free certificate after professional testing. 

I would like to hire a note buyer who knows the necessary documents and terms needed incorporated into the document for smooth resell of the note. 

If you must resell at a 9.5% cap rate:                                                     Year 1              Year 2               Year 3           Year 4                Year 5IRR Before Tax                         -45.20%            -7.54%                6.68%          13.02%              16.17%"If you can resell at an 8.5% cap rate:                                                     Year 1              Year 2              Year 3            Year 4                Year 5IRR Before Tax                           3.09%              17.12%            20.84%          22.03%               22.33%How do I go about performing such an analysis?

Being that it is in pre-foreclosure I figured it might be a good idea to try and contact the title owner of the property, and purchase the property at well below market value and then resell, for an easy flip.

I'm dealing with a owner and a judgement lien this is my first one like this how do I go about finding the creditor and how do I go about removing the lien off the home to resell to an investor

And if the contract doesn’t expressly limit damages in the event of buyer default to forfeiture of the deposit, in most states the seller could resell the property and pursue the defaulting purchaser for the difference.

I don't think you should resell it unless it's under contract.

We are struggling with whether or not we should purchase a multi-family property and live in one unit and rent out the other or purchase a fixer upper for around $20,000, fix it up, and resell it.

I live in the basement because usually the basement level is the "lesser" of the two levels so you can maximize the rental income of the property by renting out the "nicer" level for more money.You are also right that walling of the upstairs and the downstairs can be tricky, but some front entrances are set up in a way where the stairs to go downstairs are right there when you walk in the front door, so you put up some walls that you will take down when you go to resell it as a single family home and create a little foyer and then you have separate entrances.

  $800 excavator and operator, $400 oil "disposal" (likely involving them reselling at a profit).
