Hope this helps somebody else.  

This is great info.

I hear so many things from door knocking to contacting your circle of influence but lets be realistic there is tons and tons of tools that make outreach way more effective.What would be a good way to market to get 5 listings this month?

Most likely the new lender is going throught the foreclosure process and typically will end up taking the property back.The original posters chances of getting this property back now is slim to none as it will be sold at market value.  

Thanks for the blog link!

@Luisa Morejon this is an easy one!

why is this a sticky?

It's a tax on the gain.How is this calculated?

What I wanted to comment on though is that risk and return are inextricably linked. 

This will clarify and reinforce what you are reading.
