Robert Smith Right of Redemption in Oregon
2 December 2016 | 7 replies
in our market here in Oregon its a cottage industry running around and trying to buy redemption rights.. and the folks that do it are doing it purely to shake down those who bid at sale and don't understand how the rights work.or the bigger players will only bid on deals they own the rights to ... there is a 6 month right of redemption.. and the sales are uber competitive.. so the chance that it goes for a number that another investor who may own the redemption rights to  would redeem is remote.. and even if they do they owe you 9% interest.. and any cost you may have fronted to keep the property from getting damaged.. however if you jump in and rehab it you would lose those dollars.the redemption buyers buy the rights by getting the property deeded to them.. usually for 100 to 500 bucks sometimes more if there is massive equity .... and they usually record the deep a day or two before the sale.. then go the sale and see if someone buys it.. then walk up to them waive their deed and try to negotiate to sell the rights.. usually 5 to 10k.. because with the rights you can start your project right away with out them you need to wait 6 months... so it become the cost of money and time equation.and as an aside generally there are 100 sales posted and only 5 to 10 actually go... but it sounds like this one might go if there are no heirs to throw it into BK or they are working on a loan mod of some sort.good luck with it.

Challenge: If you can find a house hack in America with better numbers than what I’m going to present to you, please share.My ability to purchase this house all began with my first real estate purchase, my condo next to the Las Vegas Strip.Since the Vegas market saw rapid appreciation between the time I purchased my condo, September 15 2016, and the time I sold my condo, February 28th 2019, I was given the rare opportunity to sell at a massive profit in such a short time frame.Because I was able to take out a HELOC to use for a 4plex and 2 flips, I had two mortgages to pay off at closing: first mortgage and HELOC.
