Either way it could and should last 100 years or more if properly maintained.

the only advice i can give you is to keep checking with the county clerks office. anytime the bank takes the next step in foreclosure, there has to be a hearing and paperwork to go with it. this paperwork has to be filed with the clerks office and is free to the public to look at. sometimes, and this is a little known secret, banks just give up on a house. they weigh the cost of maintaining it for an extended period of time and legal fees along with it, verses the price they may get out of it in the end. the government puts a limit on how many foreclosures the bank can put back on the market in a year, so the banks are more likely to put the high dollar ones out there as opposed to the cheaper houses. who wouldn't?

If for some reason you are able to buy and maintain the 12 unit building I would say that within 6 to 7 years you could refinance it and be able to keep going.

I keep my properties well maintained, I response quickly, and expect to be paid on time.

He never reinvested capital back into the place to maintain it and now it needs a lot of work.
