Now if there is a defect in the foreclosure process, the court may set the deed aside and instruct the Clerk to return the buyers funds but if the buyer later finds that the borrower foreclosed on only had 50% of the title, to bad so sad. 

What are some of the regulations that make this not very appealing to small landlords for single family housing?

My only question now is in setting up the loan...

Another thing, most of the houses price history in somehow hidden in redfin \ Zillow.

The house was rehabbed with good quality materials and overall looks great but should I be worried with unpermitted modifications?

CalifCalifornia is so tennant friendly that I lose control of an asset that I purchasedIf I'm going to rent it the lease agreement wasn't of my doing.If I'm flipping to sell (my primary focus) there's someone living in my construction site.Bottom line, I'm buying a house, not a Tennant, squatter or whatever.

Thanks everyone.Just an FYI, this is actually at my lake house.

Pay attention to the number of times that people have sold the house.

Increased regulations lead to lower housing supply.

The program also helped them set up a legal entity for their rental business.
