I am new to the Dade City area. 

Hello BiggerPockets,I'm looking to partner with a Real Estate Agent that works in and around the Oklahoma City area and is familiar with multi-family and single family properties for rentals.

If you are driving distance from a major city (or major cities like we are -- LA and SD), you'll have a better chance with a high bedroom count home. 

In order to get the pre foreclosure list you will either need to buy the list from a third party provider or talk to the city about it.

Should we aim for more rural or go to the cities? 

The only issue is using this method, one city in LA county would cost me the whole tax delinquent roll from the county itself. any suggestions? 

Now I'm thinking about selling and wondering if it is worth it to come clean and go forward with the city on making it legal vs ripping it all out and going back to a 1/2 bath?

I (like many I'm sure) am interested in delayed financing where I can put rehab costs on the HUD.  See this recent article if you don't know what I'm talking about:https://www.biggerpockets.com/renewsblog/work-with......

I'm partial to big Cities (as I live in one).

In Baltimore City it is called a "Lien Sheet" and cost $55.
