I have great tenants but my property taxes have increased significantly so my net cash flow each month is reduced.

Managing a property hours away can be challenging if any issues arise, but having a third-party property management company could help handle those situations and make things more manageable.I think you are in the right place to gain some insight on what would make you successful. 

I wanted to get different thoughts on potentially using seller finance to handle this deal.

The buyer's agent, though excellent, was new and unsure how to handle the situation.

Despite wanting to handle it a few other ways I reached a small cash settlement with him to drop it.

Do you have a service or website you prefer to handle direct mail?

Can you talk to someone who is being foreclosed and handle a discussion like that?

Whoever is handling the estate needs to contact the servicer within 90 days or they will generally start the foreclosure process.

While I have managers handling the daily operations, I still oversee everything remotely.

Do not place yourself into a position of needing to sell in a reduced value environment.
