@Stan R. if this is still an open issue reach out to @David Soble he's a michigan real estate attorney with decades of experience and he's active in all the investor groups around town

Researching pockets with lower DOM may be your best bet since 30349 encompasses various swings in median income/avg home prices.

We’ve combed through the central wa markets too and Tri Cities is probably your best bet!

If you think you will go FHA, Conventional, FHA 203k, etc. and then Quit Claim the property, to a LLC, or a Land Trust you run the risk of the lender discovering a Title Transfer occurred and activating the "Acceleration Clause" or "Due on Sale Clause" that requires the loan to be paid in full, within 'x' number of days.

CNBS just released their ranking for HQ2....https://www.cnbc.com/2018/08/16/as-amazon-narrows-...Based on this research... investing in any B+ cities will be safe bet... 

Your best bet may be to find a well versed HOA attorney and split the cost with a few other owners.

I guess my best bet will be to ask the water company if they can dig up records from a time when the property was occupied.

Whoever is reporting the activity of the property is the taxpayer.

I would be happy to speak with you, and I can give you names of a few of my clients to speak with (also active here on BP, but would rather not post their names publicly).

I went back to see that now the property is in an Active status, so what can I do now see called and now wants to get rid of it?
