Try to take at least two people for inspections if the owner will be present so that one can keep the owner occupied.If the owner is sticking too close, you can bet they fear what the tenants will say.

Max rent could be $1325.House was briefly listed in January, but pulled after they received a foundation bid stating entire house is off, max of 5 inches and would require 26 total piers costing $8500, not including fixing the cracks and probably plumbing that would more than likely break..  

If it’s this “difficult” to find out which person owns the property, that’s probably for a reason.You’re best bet is to contact the lawyer, let him know why you want to contact the owner and have him/her set it up. 

Of course this would depend on what we could get it for.This auction requires 3% down to bid, and then requiresan additional 7% (so total 10% of final purchase amount) within 10 days of the auction.

Your best bet would be sell the land as is  and buy somewhere around there in a place with lower taxes . 

Capex totally depends on the property.
