I have a rental property in Alabama that I have and due to an oversite, the taxes were not paid in 2017, 2018, &  2019 so someone bought the tax lien and paid the taxes for this year. 5/22/2021 , in 2 days the tax cetificate can be turned into a deed but the tax office says I can't pay the taxes unless I have the person with the certificate sign the Verification of Allowable Expenses by Tax Sale Purchaser form, which the guy will not do because he says he now owns the property and I can't redeem it.

They conduct business in the office of record for their company. 

30 Day notice and if you have it sent from a lawyers office it might carry an extra bit of weight that could get their attention as they clearly are not paying attention to you. 

Think of them like the private form of a zoning code, which is often how they are used.So two things 1) covenants are private and the risk of violating them is having a civil suit brought against you by another private individual 2) they are recorded documents so knowing what they contain is as simple as obtaining a copy of the document from the County Recorder's office or asking Title to provide you a copy.

I do think there will be an uptick in demand as things open up more and companies start pulling people back into the office. 

I spoke with a lawyer but they recommended that I get the family to cooperative and to file paperwork with the probate office. 

We have both been feeling a bit... stuck lately.Now that I am working remotely (I asked my employer to remain remote even after everyone returns to the office... request pending), I have someone to go and split costs with, and I really don't have much keeping me in the Northeast (family likely moving to South Carolina in the next few years), I am ready to take the chance.There are so many places that I'm sure I would like but in an attempt to not get analysis paralysis, and actually commit to making a move, I decided to focus on Colorado Springs.This came after doing some research on decent cost of living areas that are ideal for young active professionals who love the outdoorsy lifestyle such as myself (and my friend).It seems like there are good job opportunities there if I do chose to get a job in the area (likely to be the case if my job denies my wfh request).Ultimately, I want to buy a small multifamily house to house-hack in but first I want to start narrowing down where in Colorado Springs I would like to be.I felt that it would be best for us to rent a 2 bedroom apartment for maybe a year in Colorado Springs to get a feel for the area and see if/where I would like to buy something down the road.I am not a big city guy but do like downtown and suburban areas.

Sometimes you can do this prior to opening escrow, but there are cases where a seller will not deliver financials until you commit and put up EMD.Initial Walkthrough - Confirm the number of spaces, the general condition of the utilities at each space, the status of the home on each space (POH, TOH, vacant, RV, etc.) and the condition of the rest of the park and amenities (roads, clubhouse, office, pool, etc).

Buying a home/multifamily with dens/offices and convert to bedrooms.

.#2....Get with a loan officer to get prequalified or underwritten for a loan to see what you will need for down payment, closing costs, prepaid fees.#3....Get a realtor and go shopping.Texas is a giant place....for example Dallas to El Paso is 1/2 way to LA.....so 1/2 the trip is within Texas...so you'll probably want to buy in a combination of close to where you will work, then in the price range that fits your income or borrowing power.
