I have been watching FSBO signs and looked at my local court listings for foreclosures. 

If you don't have sufficient deposit from tenant presumably you can file a lawsuit in small claims court or superior court (with attorney).Holes in the wall can get fixed in a weekend.

My eviction attorney told me yesterday that BoA foreclosures can be tricky as the homeowner can claim the foreclosure was not done properly, thus tying it up in court for a while.Has anyone had experience with this?

There should be a search function that allows you to search by parcel number. 

Let's say there are tenant-damaged items, the home is messy, the weeds or 4' tall or whatever condition caused by the tenant that interferes with its showability in getting the property rented.To help avoid this, can we require, as in legally defensible in court require,  that the tenant needs to have the house in rentable condition at the time they give their 60-day notice, and if they don't we can make the repairs asap and charge them instead of giving them until their move-out day to repair the items themselves?

We just began this process and have done all of the regulars (joined REIA and a lot of other networking functions) Preferably we're looking for private equity financing but flexible to talk about whatever.Anyone have any suggestions of places to network?

@Ozzy Sirimsi, and @Dave Visaya just learning how to use this function. lol

To challenge the Board requires court or threat of court...  

It may take a court order to complete the sale.

The reason for the weekly lease is because the seller has mentioned that he has tried to do monthly leases and in Texas if a tenant does not pay in order to remove them from premises you have to go to court which could end up taking two months, possibly more.
