Sometimes it takes years just to make any headway.Judgment recovery companies usually split 50/50 proceeds and pay court costs with your judgment trying to collect.

I would love feedback or advice as to how I should proceed and how you would feel if I was working under you and you knew my plan.

Or I could put her under long-term land lease where I will manage all her property for her and she would get 100% of the proceeds.

And then they proceed to tell me about all the horror stories they've ever heard about real estate investing and bad tenants!! 

You have a number of choices to grow your net worth: you can sell the house you now occupy and use the proceeds to buy another. 

Often homeowners agree to have the property listed and sold when they are in difficulty because unlike some states, mortgage debt is not something you can walk away from here without going through bankruptcy proceedings. 

But I'd be sure to have something drawn up stating the proceeds from the sale of the home will be split 50/50.

The claims are processed by the court and the hierarchy of disbursements is set forth in an order issued from the court to the clerk to pay out the funds.In your situations, the clerk is saying they know the first lien is present and probably has a right to claim these proceeds but they have not filed yet.  

The purchaser therefor has the right to proceed with an eviction subject to any limitations that may apply as to eviction of servicemembers or tenants with bona fide leases.

It seems like everyone I've talked to faces this problem, and just has to decide how they want to proceed.
