In a recent house, we found:- Lots of ammunition (sold it in bulk for $500 to a gun collector from Facebook)- Baseball cards (sold 4 cards for total of $200 on eBay)- Large Buck knife collection (sold most of them for $600 on eBay, saved a few)- Several thousand comic books (book value probably $1000-3000, though we haven't sold them yet)-  About two dozen books from the 1800s, in very good condition (likely not worth much, but very cool, and there is one book that has a good story to go with it that might help me to meet Neil deGrasse Tyson)-  An air rifle from the 1870s. 

Hi all,This is a long story and not sure if this is the right place to ask about my situation, but here goes.About a year ago my mother passed away.

Thanks for sharing your story Roger! 

I consider myself lucky and have so much gratitude towards them.Back to my story...Living with my folks has instilled this burning desire to get out on my own again.

Timing is very important as bankruptcy filings can invalidate auction results if it was filed at the right time.

(We are landlords by accident...long story, happy ending;)Now...I have to start another thread about the interesting story with the 4 huge fish tanks we had to shuffle around endlessly thru-out this process...!

Long story short is the people did not have the down payment they stated they had The bank appraised it for $60k less than what they offered and the deal fell through.

Catching a single one is a different story entirely.You'll need to know who owns a property, how to locate the owner, convince them to sell, know what paperwork is involved, how to use it, MONEY, and how you'll benefit once the property becomes your responsibility.Hope you sort this out and make this work for you.

So right off the bat (from the moment I walked in and met her) I knew I was doomed.Long story short: The male seller and myself had a great conversation.

They got a % of the Gross Profit on the deal.I'm posting a more lengthy analysis of the project on the "Success Stories" section of the forum.
