Hello, I am looking for advise on the proper steps to purchase an upcoming foreclosure estate property from the executor. 

Co-hosting could be locally based i.e. delivering towels, doing inspections, managing repairs and maintenance etc, or could be virtual tasks like communicating with guests and coordinating things virtually. 

However, they only work if properly used.

Also make sure they have proper license and insurance and name you as additional insured for liability.

Let me guess - you never verified if they are a licensed PMC or if they have proper insurance.Do they even have a website with an Owner's & Tenant's portal?

Without proper permits, there’s a chance the city may request you to revert any non-compliant additions (like the extra bathroom) to align with code standards.When it comes to refinancing, banks tend to look closely at the property’s legal compliance.

But any company that properly creates and maintains a liquidity sleeve like I described above, is going to be able to honor its commitments. 

The other thing I often see is that over time, different homeowners/contractors have decided to DYI adjustments to their home aka took out walls, didn't shore things up properly, put in new doors, etc.My point is that what you are seeing is not abnormal for older homes. 

@Tyler Condon, it isn't proper but people do make side deals where the parties exchange money separate of the closing but at the closing table.
