Eventually, the house will go into tax sale, foreclosure, or even receivorship if there are outstanding code violations, which, like blood in the water, will attract those looking to strip meat from bones.

@Kent MeentemeyerDidn’t your title search when you bought the property looked for city, county and utilities outstanding violations, open permits, and liens?

There's nothing about the area that seems to show outstanding economic or population growth. 

Outstanding."

The $145k is the outstanding loan amount.

Will the auction start at the price "Amount Due" listed 2 screenshots above or will the starting price be the outstanding loan amount?

Out leases here normally state that any money they pay goes first outstanding fees or charges and then to rent; therefore, when they don’t give extra to cover the Late Fee it means they are not paying the full rent.

With the taxes being $400 of that monthly payment, the $100-266 that could be applied to the P&I and outstanding balance (whether you forgive arrears or not) would put the loan out past 40 years at 5% if not further.

Came across a property in Cuyahoga county (Ohio) which has an outstanding tax lien for $16,167.26.

You want a Warranty Deed.The first thing I would do is order a title report to see who is actually on title, what outstanding loans and liens and fines and taxes might be owed.
