In my home state of ohio, these auctions come with clean title and they include all leins and morgages in the starting price so i figured it was the same for florida.first property i am a defendant on, the second im not because the foreclosure process started before my purchase date so im not entitled to the lien.

I actually found one of Lance’s books on Amazon when I was first browsing around.

Basically sounds like you’re putting down an extra $20k for…Him choosing the property (I assume/hope it’s really you both choose or it’s actually to his advantage to pick it, so this I feel can be disregarded.)Him running all the property management. 1) feels like he might get sick of doing all the work and forget why he’s doing it. 2) you’re paying $20k more to not have to do it so how long would it take for property management fees to reach $40k?

How accessible is the area to amenities my end user would actually want?

I was thinking about investing in Orlando or Tampa, but I actually don’t know if either markets are actually advantageous.

The owner must have also used the home as their primary residence for at least 730 days, which is 24 months or two years, in the five years right before the closing date of the home's sale.

That settles it, It does not settle anything, actually. :)OK has a peculiar requirement for non-residents: you need to file if your "OK-source gross income" is above $1,000.

It might seem a little stupid until it actually works.If you can, try to find a single family or duplex that you'll both be able to move into at the same time so you'll just need to find roommates for last year. 

@Ivan Hernandezformulas don't workhas to be specific to the actual propertywhatever it needs is what it needs

I think that's where people get super stuck.Everything looks great so they never actually pick one.
