Even if you get a judgement, collection from someone without money is difficult and time consuming.

The LAW says that the sale is upheld and the buyer has bought the property subject to ALL liens, judgements and mortgages. 

Hello Moncy,It would be best to get an attorney to help ensure the judgement goes in your favor at the next eviction hearing.

Judgement against the tenant is with us to collect $3500 from the tenant.

Also since you know where he lives and he is a homeowner, you have some recourse for collecting on your judgement.

I like the terms and this is my first owner financed deal as well as my first potential rental property so I don't want those factors to cloud my judgement.

Tenant does improvements on their own without permission - if it is truly an improvement in our judgement then I don't say anything, because I don't care if someone wants to make my property nicer at their expense.

In the end they ended up a few thousand dollars in debt, evicted down to the last minute before the sheriff setout, and forced to move in with the guys parents and a several thousand dollar judgement to me for rent and a few small damages.I much prefer educating them up front with the lease and then sticking to it, filing for eviction as soon as they are late.
