Hi BPs, I'm getting an MF with a tenant in a space that's clearly moldy (black spots on wall, and confirmed a nice mold cake in the crawlspace below). 

In addition, our properties are going to be made "purpose-built," a finished product thats specifically designed to attract today's college students with amenities that appeal to that demographic.

My name is Cyrus and I have experienced in project management in interior design and home remodeling industry but not in US.

(I am an apartment manager, graphic designer, web designer, social media expert, publicist, writer, festival planner and very connected person in Tacoma). 

I can get $600/mth to rent to artists / designers / photographers ...without it the deal doesn't make sense.

They will also be able to confirm or refute your beliefs of the area based on your preliminary research.Hope this gives you a jumping off point.I wish you much success. 

I am going back out to view with my GC on Thursday and if he confirms for me what I think, I want to submit an offer.

Eagle Ranch has lots of vacant lots, as well as HOA fees, design review board and ER Metro District doubling taxes.  

Keep in mind that the auction process is just part of the legal requirements for the lender's collection activity of last resort - and that the auction process is somewhat designed so that the lender can "solve" some of the issues by following proper procedures (for example, IRS liens can be left with just a redemption period if proper notice is given to the USA that a foreclosure will happen and extinguish the IRS lien).
