And if you win that auction, there is still a primary lien attached to the property and the old owner.

It's a "Heads I Win, Tails You Lose" proposition.

Ask your PMC for the Eviction Judgment or Writ of Eviction.2) Even if you get a money judgment, you may "win the battle, but lose the war".

If I break even on mortgage payments and don't cashflow I count it as a win.

If you win, they will have to pay the extra expense of the filing fees, etc, on top of what you say your damages are (which would be the cost to hire someone else to complete the job).   

Lenders will just tell you about the loans, but that doesn't mean you can win a house with those loan types.

I'm assuming this is done prior to closing for the winning bidder?

Glad to see some wins out there! 

I knew I was going to win either way.REHABS:So many people have asked how much I spent on rehabs and what does the quality of work look like.
