The Attorney will then contact the IRS as the legal representative of the son, enclose copies of all documents, and request an exact payoff of the tax lien, and ask if the IRS is willing to accept the net sales proceeds of the sale of the property and release the property from the lien.  

I am wondering what's the best way to document my payments to them since it's likely that they can't provide any official invoice and I will be paying in cash or check.

This document does require the sellers signature and best to get it notarized.Sure it's easier to just not worrry about the mortgage being paid and securing your equitable interest.  

Was wondering if there are any document in the "files" section on bigger pockets that others have found helpful in organizing & guiding you through the whole inspection period?

The closing statement should have documented the security deposit transfer from the seller to the buyer.

If you have long-term, documented income (W-2), credit score over 700, and your debt-to-income ratio is low, you stand a pretty good chance.

I was hoping this thread could become a living document of places people recommend for investing, or don't, and the reasons why.I'll go first: I've lived in Bridgeport for 3 years now and if there is a place that I would say "buy, buy buy!"

If my company name is not on any documents, i.e. contract, mortgage... etc.

Reasons, there are not a lot more building on the market than you would expect.Below is an article I came across that may give you some more insight about what is going on in the area.http://www.nbcphiladelphia.com/news/local/Millennials-Drawn-to-Northwest-Philly-But-Will-They-Stay-259816701.htmlGood Luck

@Wade Stahle, the two years is very specific and will be documented by date of closing of purchase to date of closing of sale.
