Providing advice based on old methods is dangerous now as we are now talking about violations of federal law.Contract for Deeds BTW, as they use to be with a quit claim deed has new issues as well as such as a security agreement is now seen as circumventing foreclosure laws an can land a seller in court for an unlawful foreclosure.So, much has changed in just a a couple years with financing arrangements of any kind, most of the old ways are out the window an we need to take care in what is advised.But, you're right, you nee to fin the seller's needs an address those to make a deal work

You may also be able to go to the original owner and pay a modest amount for a quite claim deed.I have found getting title insurace to be an issue here on tax lien foreclosures but we have never had one we couldn't find someone to insure it.

(Talk to your attorney about quit claiming it to your business).

she is claiming that I have to have utilities on before they will dewinterize.

@Carson M.I defiantly don't know as much as these guys do about getting a loan, but you may be at risk with Uncle Sam for not claiming your landscaping income on your tax returns.Even though you may not have been able to legally register a business with the State of Michigan, it doesn't mean the state and feds don't want your tax dollars.Since you are an entrepreneur at heart, I would suggest possibly amending your returns to report the income.

Have the attorney look at the suit as to the nature of the claims.The priority of liens depends on state law and the nature of the lien, while a first mortgage usually has priority they could be government claims, taxes and fines that could take priority.

so if I can claim that loss, will it go against my personal taxes paid and increase my tax return from my day job?

Some things they will claim are outside of their area of expertise.No legal advice.

If you Google their name and it comes up with a bunch of hits claiming they ripped someone off, then it's probably best to avoid that one!

When i contacted them they said they would sale using Quit claim deed.My question is would it be hard to find an end buyer willing to buy the property with it being deeded through quit claim and not warrenty deed ?
