I found the case online at DC Superior Court and last month a judge filed the order approving the lender's request for judgement and decree for sale of real property.I am under the impression that with that order the lender can proceed to force the auction of the property.Never having worked this niche before, but having a very high interest in this particular property, I am not sure if there is any ability to reach out to the lender prior to the auction or how I can make sure to track the auction date/time etc. if I decide to attend and bid on the property.  

Purchasing your own residence can bring your emotions into it and cloud your judgement.

Multiple violations or a large one are signs of bad judgement at least.

They can sue for deficiency judgement but in most cases you cannot get water from a rock.

If there is ever a single law suit, they can get a judgement and work through anything within that LLC.

IF there is a lien or judgement against the buyer they shouldn't have been preapproved for a loan.

Assuming you win a judgement, turn it over to a collection agency and let them pursue the tenant. 

In MD and I suspect NJ a property owner can redeem and pay the taxes at any  time until the judge give a judgement for foreclosure. 3) Normally yes.

If they are embezzling money and there is proof talk to the DA if you want criminal charges, or take them to court with a lawsuit if you want money and a judgement against them.

Direct quote from my attorney several evictions ago.He's also told me that in his experience, filing for a money judgement is fine, but actually trying to collect is a waste of time.
