Moral of the story, you can not circumvent foreclosure.Barring details about the tenant buyers, why not just mortgage/deed of trust the property to them for the agreed price at a reasonable interest rate and be a lien holder?  

Moral of story, do as much research on any property prior to purchase as you can, especially municipal violations , or instruct your Title Co/attorney to do same.  

There are legal and moral ways to make the transaction work.There the illegal or immoral ways to do business.If you get a reputation for being shady do not complain latter.Every wonder while the public thinks agents cut corners or do things that they should not be involved in?

From a moral and ethical standpoint, I believe the right thing to do would be to reimburse the buyer their expenses as well as to compensate your agent  

@Armando Morales  I normally find a new tenant after the current one has given notice. 

@Robin Morales - the perfect amount of cash is LOTS!

@Robin Morales  Start by determining how much you can borrow and then what you wan to. 

The moral of this story is ALWAYS get a home inspection, especially in older homes and ALWAYS review your leases for turn-key properties. 

And use my labor to build housing in order to rent it out and get a return, the government has NO MORAL RIGHT to dictate how much me and another free human decide what the rent for housing exchange will be.It's a disgusting immoral activity by a bunch of authoritarian pigs who think we're slaves to the government.  

Tile can be $1.50/sf or $50/sf.The moral of the story is construction/rehabbing is like asking someone how much it costs to buy a car.
