@Julio VasquezIf you want to lock this up with a contract, I say go ahead but cover yourself by having a contingency that allows you to cancel the contract (and get your deposit back) if the current owner fails to reach an agreement with the HOA to settle the lien.

Only thing that is tough (imo) are small multis, Because of the high demand of rentals large size apartments lock that space down and make the duplex/triplex/quadplex market tough to compete in. 

I haven't quite figured out how to properly @ mention someone yet, does it not yet work on mobile devices?

I think I've lost my 3.125% rate lock on a 15 yr conventional loan.

If they're students, I'm assuming you will have some extra operating expenses/collections issues so be careful locking in to a high interest loan.

the hud listing agents I've worked with always give me a courtesy last visit with the promise that locks will be changed at that time..

I wish I could access my locked up civil service TSP money, but since I'm technically " on leave" from the GS job to serve this "activation", I can neither cash it out with penalties or borrow my 50% out of it.If I'm missing something here, experienced military BP folks, feel free to square me away.

I want to lock the property up now so I don't miss out on the opportunity as the months pass.

motion sensors, a bath fan timer, turn the lights off once you are in bed as opposed to having to get up to do it.in china, when you leave the hotel room you pull the room key out of this device and the electricity in the entire room shuts off in 5 mins. the fridge stays on. america is never going to adopt this option. lol

I said that tax lien, foreclosure and other types of auctions seem interesting and are a topic I'd like to try to figure out.He said that in Denver, there is a group of investors (about 20 or 30 of them, he thinks) that have pretty much locked any new-comers completely out of that niche.When auction lists come out, they go through it and they decide which of them will get what.
