When I went back the next day to upset the highest bid, the clerk if the court couldn't find the paperwork.

As in a seller who extends credit to a buyer via an installment sale.Of course, attorneys who argue in Federal appeals court.

I'm not sure what to do.My question is, has anyone prevailed by taking sellers to small claims court after getting repairs done, due to non-disclosure of a defect?

You can certainly petition the RE taxes with an appraisal or a Real Estate Broker's Opinion of Value and possibly an appearance in front of the revision board or if contested further, the appeals Court in Columbus.  

Long story short, it was an ugly eviction followed by the landlord's small claims court case, and the tenant kept texting the landlord afterward in a creepy manner.

IF he refuses to do it amicably, hold him to the lease, and take him to small claims court.

Since I was the only guy there I was able to buy the property for $1 above the opening bid, so $124,168.Its going to take anywhere from 5-10 business days for the court to confirm the sale.

If they can't see what you own in public records then the only way they'll know is if you were already involved in a legal case and the court finds a reason to subpoena the trust.

All I had to do was file the Writ of Execution form and have the court clerk stamp it once it was filed. 

After going through the process of finding a policy that did not kill my cash-flow, I read through the declarations page and found that the policy had a 100% co-insurance clause.
