@Rafael Floresta If you are the successful bidder of a property being sold at Sheriff's Sale in a foreclosure action, you will receive title free and clear from the previous owners debts, including tax liens.

Secondly, the IRS will examine the intent of the person - was the person intending to engage in an active trade or business.

My goal is to trade or buy up to multi units and commercial.

HI @Dawn Brenengen I am looking for several contractor recommendations in the Raleigh area for these specific trades: Plumbing, Electrical, Roofing and Drywall.

I'd try to contact some trade services that do large construction projects, but are more of a ma and pa based operation.

If she does mortgage assistance and sends the info in whatever action if any will be stopped.

I have learned so much through the podcast and recommended books in the podcast, which is why i have decided to finally create my profile, where i will hopefully learn a lot more through relationships in bigger pockets and start taking action.

I am an entrepreneur by nature and I am super eager to learn and start taking action!

I also suspect that some of the relatives don't want the owner to take action on the houses during their own lives, as they have plans for the property themselves later on- I have encountered on one house already. 

In this case, more action earlier may have helped you avoid this situation.In the mean time -- what is meant to happen will happen.
