If you mean to legally acquire the property after the tax sale that depends on the rules in the state you are investing.

I thought about having a property management company manage the property but I do believe this is something I could do on my own and utilize on line screening services as well as checking local evictions public records.

This isn't googling how to make money passively online for 8 hours.

We would do it for a 16% annual rate and $500 fee at closing. 70% LTV Borrower incurs all legal fees. 

@Menalik ArcherYou might want to listen to @Joe Fairless podcast #1054 with @Amy Wan from Bootstrap Legal for some thoughts on how to stay out of troublehttp://joefairless.com/podcast/jf1054-getting-paid...Cheers!

You could always find your investor another property to take his mind off of this one.At any rate, i'm just offering a couple of points, it ain't legal advice, and it's not meant to circumvent your DB, or the agencies legal team, or the state of FL.

In KY you can do it online on the Secretary of State's Website.

@Aaron McCurdy For whatever it's worth, some the "tone" (dangerous to infer online) is along the lines of "I need something to do that will make some money but it doesn't have to replace the full $100K."  

Fully rented.I'd be interested in purchasing if:1) I can owner-occupy both the first and second floor apartments (the footprint is small and I'd like to turn it into a single family space)2) I can make sure the basement apartment is legally habitable.Can I even legally do this?
