Depending on how set the current holder of the property is on price you can always tell them to call you when they really want to sell the property and you will consider it at the 129,000 price un-occupied and if they want to not have to deal with removing the tenants that you might be interested in it at 110,000 or some much lower number than the 129k price.  

**Wait for the calls.they will come.they will come.they will come(fingers crossed)** Here's the basics of how I want to invest in my town and surrounding counties- Purchase properties on rent to own contracts(land contracts)with no money down only monthly payments to current mortgage holder, Make all the tax payments as well and insurance of course.

Often, you can agree to an interest bearing account with interest retained by the holder for maintenance of the account and bookkeeping expenses, the account may not be required to be an escrow account by the depository but will be on your books.

Hello All,I am first mortgage holder for a house on E. 111th St., Cleveland and another house on E. 4th St., Dayton.

For example, I believe I remain liable for unpaid taxes and/or building damage or city fines as the primary lien holder.    

@Charles Holder - I'm interested in connecting with the agent in question if you don't mind making another intro. 

Where I hold most of my notes, the tax bills are mailed to the registered owners, not the lein holders.

I was just wondering...if there is an OPTION recorded for X investor, will the short sale lender be more likely to approve a short sale because they know that the sale has to go through the option holder?
