BUT your down payment is SIGNIFICANTLY less than any other loan product....well, almost any other loan product. 

If the HOA is not mentioned anywhere, then it may not have been properly setup.

You cannot 1031 into properties you already own or to pay down a  loan on a property you own.You're lender is probably giving you a partial release when you sell in exchange for a certain % of the net proceeds from the sale of the one unit.While it is conceivable that you could do a 1031 on this sale I think you need to look closely at the issue of intent.  1031 is only available for properties you have purchased with the intent of holding for productive use. 

It doesn't take the place of a proper title search, but if it's available and free you may be able to use it find some initial info.

@Cecilia Arnulphi ah, so the 203K loan is an FHA loan product. 

Utilities were included and also household supplies (paper products, laundry products, cleaning supplies).

All it is is a job where you are compensated for bringing a buyer and seller together...To do it properly took me about 10 years of being in the trenches of buying, selling, landlording, and doing a few bad flips.

You will need to know that information when you go to refinance but if you don't have that information, you need it now in order to properly plan the project.

I've heard the auctions can be a place to pick up deals (with proper due diligence that is) and other foreclosures or short sales.

Sounds exciting and, in my opinion, it might be more productive working outside the box.
