In some states constructive notice, essentially posting in a newspaper with adequate circulation, is sufficient for junior liens.  

My estimated would be $208,000 once its done.It was build in 2004 w/o occupancy ;sf: 1553; 3bedroom/2 bathroom .

We want to put ceiling fans in every bedroom, so we relocated the vents to side of each room and we are putting ceiling boxes put in the center of the rooms.We also opened up two walls, one in the master bath, and one going from the dining room into the kitchen.All the ceilings upstairs have been re-textured.All the bedroom walls have been painted as well as the living room downstairs.The upstairs hall bathroom had tile on the walls that was pulled out during demo and we are in the middle of replacing the sheetrock there.Our goal for this week is:1- Putting the upstairs bathrooms back together, new vanities, new toilets...etc.  2- Framing in the new openings that we created.3- New sheetrock and insualtion in the den.4- Finish trim painting upstairs5-Painting the rest of downstairs6-Finishing a downstairs coat closet(currently not sheetrocked).The 1st pic is the den, it was taken before all the paneling was removedThe 2nd pic is the kitchen, the soffit in the pic is now goneThe 3rd pic is the downstairs living room and dining room(that light fixture is going)The last 2 pics are two of the four bedrooms upstairs.

The home has electricity and plumbing in a 600 sq ft. unfinished attic which we intend to convert to more bedroom and bathroom areas.  

@Bryan C.I would lend on a minor rehab, like fixing an outdated kitchen, $10K to $20K, quick resell, make 10% in 2 months, do it 5 times a year.Either you or a REI goes to expired listings, offer to buy house with dated kitchen or bathrooms, You give a note for equity, use your IRA for rehabFix and resellYou get your IRA money in 2 months plus 10%.

These items are not essential to the rehab and not required by FHA, thus okay to leave out of the 203k. 

Essentially you have "dead equity" and a state of California that can be tenant friendly with your 400k property.If your paper investments are with REIT's their returns cycle heavily.

The question is way too broad.A tax LIEN is essentially an IOU that you are buying from the government. 

Lots of them out there that provide essentially the same report (assuming you've had the required home/site inspection and have full access).
