you are only allowed to credit bid what your owed and expenses.. if you paid the tax's then yes you can add them if they are unpaid then no U cant.. if you want to own the property and continue to bid above your credit bid your just like any other investor and you can bring your cash to the sale ( cashiers check) and bid as high as you want.. but keep in mind any overage over what your credit bid is.. goes to the next creditor or to the owner. and if you don't pay the first off your taking title sub too the first and will need to deal with it.. in many cases like this is can be a situation were you simply buy out the first NOW.. and your second goes into first position and your second because you advanced the 30k becomes 105k credit bid.. and then anything bid above goes to the owner or next in line.your trustee that you hire to prosecute the foreclosure will walk you through all this.. 

They never told me that they would not do in-kind transfers (it's an option on their form) and continually blamed TD for not transferring the funds.With that said, that was my experience, other people may have had a better one. 

(e.g. contiguous)- Comprised of 4 parcels:P1 - 70 acres with 2250sqft 200yo house and 20yo barn.P2 - 35 acres with under conservation easement.P3 - 5 acre minor sub division home lotP4 - 5 acre minor sub division home lotSITUATION- Seller is 70yo and retiring in 2019- Seller has heIrs who are absent and uninterested in owning the property (will eventually sell inheritance)- Seller is a frIend and neighbor of the famIly- Seller (and our famIly) have preservation/non-development hopes for land in the neIghborhoodOUTCOMESFor the Sellers:- Immediate cash lump sum (property needs some work)- "Guaranteed" monthly/annual payments for deal term- Retain ownership and occupancy of real estate until they vacate- Seller retains ownership if buyer defaults- Continuity of neighborhood legacyFor the Buyers (us):- Acquire property rights- Fixed sale price- Known caretaker/occupant- Continuity of neighborhood legacyDEAL OPTIONS- $450-500k sale price- 10% down- 20 year term- 0% Interest- Land ContractThis seems like a good option to consider in terms of managing tax impacts to both parties, but at the cost of fewer “ownership rights” for both parties.- Seller FinancingThis seems like a good option to consider in terms of better “ownership rights” for both parties, but at the cost of trickier tax implications.

And there are expenses for hanging your license with a broker and expenses for continuing education.

As we get closer to the holidays and ending the year it will be upon us before we know it, I hope to continue to network and meet more like minded people. 

My math told me a quick sale at $400k would net me within $5-15k of what I'd net doing a master suite addition if values continued to trend flat/down. 

So, all that to say, we are looking for some innovative ways to market and will continue with VRBO, but would also like to open up possibilities for other ways of finding renters.Thanks for weighing in! 

Ask them what their plans are, if they want to continue renting, etc, etc.  

@Brad TarryYou can roll all or part of that old 401(k) to an IRA of your choosing, including a self-directed IRA that provides broader investment choices.IRA plans do not offer a participant loan feature as 401(k) plans do, however.If you are self-employed, you could potentially establish your own Solo 401(k) and then have access to the loan feature.If you will be joining another W-2 employer you could also potentially roll some of your current 401(k) into that plan such that you would have some capital from which to borrow.If you have an outstanding loan on your prior employer 401(k) that may need to be paid off promptly if you have terminated service. 

Continue to repeat flips by reinvesting original partner's cash and profits into each subsequent deal(s) until you have your own seed money ($10k, $20k,...?).
