A short sale could be denied for a host of reasons, but I will make the assumption that the home has other outstanding liens that the bank was not willing to pay to offer clear title. 

But they never mention this outstanding success when talking about anti-landlord proposals such as the Jim Brooks Act, since it would undermine the FALSE NARRATIVE that there is a housing emergency.A senior legislative aideand policy advisor at the State House said: "We know there is no housing emergency.

It appears the bank simply winterized the house, but later the water company shut off from the outside due to an outstanding balance of 154.

Just closed a $220K house last Friday with 3 outstanding violations and the seller was being fined $100/day for each violation.

IE:  An investor with 5 rentals is "cashflowing" $150-$200/per month on each rental property and each property has an outstanding mortgage or maybe two.

Have a title company provide you with a report on the property so you know that the person selling it to you has the right to sell it and also that there aren't any outstanding liens against the property he didn't tell you about.

My 6 Cali properties have a value of $2.4M with an outstanding mortgage balance of $1.3M but after repayment mortgages, maintenance etc I am not cashflowing.
