This is really poor judgement on your part .

CA OR and WA have very specific laws as it relates to what you can and cannot do with a homeowner in foreclosure you should read those before you do anything.. they have severe penalties for violators..Once you figure what you can and cannot do legally.1. as Wayne above state Credit is trashed. your bringing no value there In West coast Purchase Money Deed of trust foreclosure  credit is trashed and bank has no right for a deficiency judgement. 2. 

In MD you have legal title the moment you get a judgement.

Also, are there other liens which can cloud title such as judgements, IRS, child support, installment loans, etc.

Of course some liabilities are transferred such as judgement liens or HoA fees or water / sewage fees.

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

At first glace it seems like most have an appraised value below the judgement to be raised.

It wasn't her fault she was leading me from her best judgement and if I wanted to do what she had done it would have been great advice, but I wanted to househack for as cheaply as possible in a good location and she didn't get that. 

If she doesn't leave, begin eviction for a holdover where, in many jurisdictions is much easier to win a judgement than for non-payment or other lease violations (where they can just show up to court with the cash and they get to stay, despite your time and court costs).Also, it would be very helpful to us for you to put your RE market in your profile or at least in your post, because in this part of real estate, too, location matters. 

You need to exercise good judgement and not be afraid in making your choices.
