They currently owe 10,000 worth of bad taxes witch I would pay plus I would be giving them and additional 3000 on top of that and covering all transfer fees and attorney fees as well.The property's tax assed value is 35,000I understand I will be needing an affidavit to prove they have legal ownership ship before I can buy it from them.

Plus combined with the fact the KC is smack in the middle of the country, I forsee many companies with national distribution looking at KC as a viable location to ship east west north south.

back in the deep dark days of 09 2010  I sold a good portion of my OREO inventory Zero down Zero % interest on 5 to 7 year notes.. with those terms I had 100% pay rates no defaults.but that ship has sailed.. 

Sometimes the best move for someone on a sinking ship is to jump instead of riding it down to a slow death.These are just my thoughts based upon your comments.

I am trying to qualify for a first time home buyer conventional loan, but I work on ships for more than half the year.

Seems like you are eager to get started and I admire that, just make sure you have your due-diligence set in what it is you want to get into, that will drive the ship.

You're probably going to have to be pretty far west to find anything multifamily in that price point - I think that ship sailed this neighborhood 10 yrs ago. 

I've also found a website called "grouphomeriches" but I can't vouch for them, it seems to be a paid mentor ship and I have no idea if it is legit but I do get his email newsletters which are for the most part pretty informative.I also just read this article  which is about an amazing group of parents who started an inclusive living community through an apartment complex that houses the disabled with staffed caregivers and your everyday tenant: https://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/2019/01/2...It seems like such an overwhelming feat but it is so great to hear of other people doing the same thing out there and making it happen! 

If any of you experienced BP members are willing to have coffee and discussed with me your approach (and possible mentor-ship in the future), please contact me!
