Our street just got hit pretty badly with the tornado.

Most likely he will play you as long as possible, and probably doing it to a bunch of others as well.You might not get the joy of having your money back, but at least you will know you did what you can to take him off the streets so he can't hurt anyone else.BMR

Also, I know the default owner and he has ZERO interest in getting the house back… Yes and no to the “senior lien” idea… The senior lien is almost always the best position to buy… However, you need to be aware of what other liens there are that can still “stick” to the title after a foreclosure sale… (I will speak for my areas only here)… But liens from the IRS, the State, County property taxes, city assessments for street improvements, sewer and water connection fees, certain utility bills, are things like that can “stay” and “stick” with the property after the foreclosure sale.

Portland's investor street gang.I refrain from really going into detail because i'm afraid they will reach into my bank account and seize my assets...just kidding.

This would be a GREAT site for a CVS, given walgreens is right down the street!

So in a matter of speaking every house I build is my "dream home" but I make sure I'm never so attached to a house that if someone came off the street and offered me more money than what I felt it was worth that I would even have to think about it.

Tenants would pay their own heat and lights.I'm also thinking that if I create some of street parking I could probably get a little extra per month from the tenants.

This garage is not an income producing rental yet, but like I said, It’s a nice lot with every home on the street valued at $100K+ detached single family homes.
