The tenant I'm evicting "claimed" him and told the cops he could sleep it off in his unit.

We haven't had a chance to plug into the REIA group yet and, in lieu of that, we were hoping to reach out to the BP community for professional connections. 

Instead of handling the concern professionally, John stated I expected results over night and that he did not want to work with me so he was refunding my money.

@Michelle BergeWas the property professionally managed?

If You are not familiar with the unforeseen circumstances under section 121, get a professional help. 

I have pages of questions that I have been finding answers to on the BP forums but there are still so many more and we will need to be talking with a lot of different professionals.

So, if there are any flippers/investors in the Sacramento and/or surrounding area that could recommend a competent and professional GC, that would be much appreciated.

I am guessing you haven't talked with a tax professional about this yet.

You can also call real estate professionals in your area (e.g., realtors, brokers, contractors, property managers" and ask for recommendations.Happy Hunting!

this is tricky, it tends to be a case by broker-case basis, and only a handful of brokers control the bank-owned..yikes......i forgot if the agent can rep. the bank and you, there in NC, if you make offer..Just thinking out-loud and opinion, not telling you what to do, dont know your plan (hold, flip, or your funding):  ...get over there, with a property preservation buddy, assess the repair and upgrades, (unless its already pretty perfect or you feel the agent can give you some accurate idea)...ask agent what he/she can sell for in good condition, confirm.. then factor arv, repairs needed, make offer with 10 day due diiigence professional inspection......are you offering an almost full retail-market priced forclosure anyway, then are you going to hold it for cash flow?
