The bet place to start is WHERE YOU ARE.

Those rules are different from state to state based on probate, inheritance and adjudication laws that determine if the property is taken over by the municipality due to an excessive amount of back taxes and liens for things like grass cutting.Your best bet is to talk to the local investors you can connect with and see why no one else is after such properties.

With 4 kids I'll bet there's a decent amount of damage.When you file an eviction and the tenant moves out before action, does the eviction still go on their record or does it become a small claims issue?

Emotionally we hate coming home to the odd floor plan and 1970s kitchen and bathrooms.

Sounds odd, on a loan mod the amount typically "set aside for now" stays as a balloon on that mtg, and doesn't generate a second lien.

Deborah and Rhett I read somewhere, I think on here actually that the area you are talking about, Classen /10 Penn was looking like a good bet.

Your best bet would most likely be to search local listings for local firms and property management brokerages.

You bet!  

You will probably just need to make the initial contact because they will probably be able to direct you to other investors since it's such a small community I'm betting most investors there would know the rest by first name.

How do I get them to resolve easy things and not call me every time they hear a creek or odd noise?
