Sad to see it removed, but rules are rules....I'd like to see it continued/re-examined, but this time simply in light of generosity in general not tied to any other type of organization.I believe that people who are generous have a way about them that tends to draw others toward them, which is helpful in business where net working and establishing relationships built on trust is important. 

Here are basic stats on single-family home sales for May 2018 for the City of Austin and the greater Austin area:According to the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), the median family in the Austin-Round Rock MSA will make around $86,000 in 2018.

I will likely just adjust the offer to cover the $ amount the seller would receive in rent.There are two factors that concern me in the potential difficulty in getting the tenants to vacate the property, 1 is they are paying very cheap rent for the stats of the home and 2 the grow room obviously was constructed with considerable effort which I anticipate may influence them to dig their heels in and potentially squat illegally. 

Your next problem will be finding the time to examine all your leads to discover which ones are worth pursuing or not.

@Jason Stoltzfus You can look at reports to see some stats for your area.

I think you're ready to purchase a tax-deed the major down-fall is that too many foreign investors and small capital groups come in and buy the best properties near or above market value....There's a bunch of posts on tax-deeds its just you have to spend sometime  learning how to title examine (this is a key skill you will have to learn).1/2) These properties are being "foreclosed" by the local government - in general its state specific for instance in FL it is true they can be redeemed until the second before sale however after you're pretty much done for (however if its a valuable property and any of the previous owners in the chain of title have a bit of cash to throw around you'll be forced to defend yourself in court which can be pretty expensive).

Again, others might feel differently here.3) property level due diligence: (takes seconds to weeks per deal): here is where I drill in with the low-level details.a) pro forma popping: I examine all the assumptions, and see if they are overoptimistic or not.
