If I can recall correctly I have purchased one property from the website and one from its competitor Hubzu.

The emotional value she has knowing that we own a rental property free and clear (cash flowing $1000/month) with no debt owed to anyone (aside from county taxes) trumps leveraging that asset to acquire additional properties.Thankfully, the cashflow from that asset and our other properties will enable us to save the 20% down payment on another SFH by the end of the year when the local market cools down a bit.your wife is a smart lady..... everyone should have something to fall back on.. also one thing to note and its rarely mentioned and of course i am not saying this is going to happen.. but when a market corrects Heloc's can get called or frozen.. so you want to be careful with those .. thinking they are a piggy bank you can always access.

Personally I feel this is far more important than location for the simple reason that if you purchase the property correctly location is simply an added bonus.Some of my thoughts.

Research the correct way ( I believe putting in what amounts to an escrow account) and include a letter with your June rent payment explaining that per PA code XX you’re withholding $yy this month to cover the costs of non functioning systems that were included in the house.

@Prem Schoff it seems that "net some equity within a few years" is your goal, correct?

Now that you've bought yourself some time with lower interest rates, decide if your numbers play out correctly.

Do they have to buy out my bid or does the tax claim bureau owe me money money back since they auctioned off a property that wasn’t there’s to auction.

Madison was very stable thru the correction - head south to Janseville or go 20 minutes in all 4 directions for better values on your purchase after sale.Happy hunting!

Sorry if they did but this is not correct.
