Not gonna give address's here because not trying to market them here, just pointing out reality that when your a 24-7 professional "hunter", you tend to know where the deer are all but on demand.

So selling it to someone when you can't give them clean and insurable title can sometimes be an issue.At that price point, not so much. 8k properties tend to have a buyer pool that won't care as much that the title isn't insurable if they see the reason why is because it was bought at a tax sale.

Check on ownership status before you get into escrow.Get multiple inspections to be able to really determine the extent of repairs.Try to align yourself with the best contractors, had good referrals, but somehow nobody stood behind their warranties.Have a good lawyer and local accounting firm.Talk to locals to see how things are done and what's happening around you.Have patience!
