Perhaps there is a learning curve for yourself as well in being a manager.As to resolving this did you attempt to do 3 rehabs at once with the same crew you have been using and now expect them to do 3 times the work? 

Multiple attempts to thwart the sale and overall dishonesty from the three of them.  

hi moh. yes, i have experience with bidding on auction.com. they are ok. i hate to have to do the $2500 deposit too, but i guess that is their way of weeding out the not so serious buyers. i bought one house from them and didn't have any issues with closing. hubzu.com, however, are a major pain in the *** to deal with. i wouldn't buy a house from their site for a buck. even my attorney said to never buy a house from them. we attempted to buy one once and they were, in my lawyers words, " the biggest pain in the *** that i have ever dealt with". auction.com is much, much better

I currently have no experience in real estate investing, but am attempting to put in my due diligence and learn what i can while i save up enough money to buy my first property.  

The house is in the middle green color 166k and garage is on the rectangle lot 2.4kI dont know what to do and really no body else does... why I am paying the title company and everyone else if they cant even figure it out.Thanks

i do a lot of driving around too. however, contacting your local municipality also works. go in to the office and ask if they keep a list of  any vacant houses or houses in physical distress in the area. you would be surprised what they know. finding the owners is easy too. just ask the same people at the municipality. another great way to find the owners of a vacant house is knock on doors and ask neighbors. every neighborhood has the neighborhood busy body that knows everything about everybody. find them

I have a friend who recently moved from Germany to California and is attempting to rent his apartment, in Germany, by owner but isn't having any luck.

Paying cash for your home... don't even attempt that until someone competent in numbers (hint - not a realtor, a CPA) runs a comparison for you - paying cash versus putting 20% down and getting a tax deduction on the mortgage interest while putting the 80% in cash that is still in your pocket to good use earning interest.  

However in an active market it might be well worth your effort to attempt it.  

I have no experience in this area at all, so I wouldn't attempt it myself.
