It is often the investor who failed to do their proper due diligence, failed to be patient and ultimately didn't ask the tough questions they need to ask that pays for those short cuts.  

I've seen many investors get burned because they failed to understand their hard money loan terms/rates, even if they did acquire what should have been a home run deal. 

My attorney stated not only must the person who failed to pay taxes be given notice but also the squatter as well since our suit names persons who were in possession of the house. 

Do you have any advice on particular sites to look into to find tenants like this needing placement?

One last comment about the regulators: the SEC will do nothing to a syndicator with a failed project, so long as he/she shows that they did not do anything blatantly or willfully illegal and were merely incompetent failed syndicators.

I have been lurking on the site and attended webinars for a while but I am just here to learn and I am soaking it all up!

What most people fail to realize is that most of the turnovers at least the ones I’ve seen the house will need some repairs before a new tenant is placed.

Also, Bigger Pockets is a great resource, and you will probably be able to find buyers on this site.

Most fail to consider what goes into owning and operating real estate once it’s purchased and solely concern themselves with how to buy the property.

Examples could include but are not limited to installing new/ improving driveways, clearing overgrown trails/ build sites, demolishing abandoned buildings, property cleanup, extending or having utilities pre-approved, etc.
