You are not in my shoes.

Does it tie into the Biggerpocket ideals and methodology?

Given that i am in California, what would you do if you were in my shoes?

Here is the strange part though, I searched the property records and the deed instrument number being auctioned appears to be associated with a HELOC (Home Equity Line of Credit) that is tied to the original mortgage.  

I am fortunate that I have the VA Loan, but it is tied up into a home I own in AZ, so I will refi out of that AFTER my 1st Multi-family, so I can use it for the next one.

Because of their close ties to Oceanpointe my recommendations would be to look elsewhere.

Worst case I can hold the property as rental but I hate to tie up my money like that. 

I don't want to tie my own hands up. 

It does appear we will be well served to figure out a way to automate—at least to some degree—the mailing of 1,000 pieces at a tie.
