Just kiddin'.Anyone going through foreclosure has several things going on: 1) They are under a lot of stress, 2) Everybody is mailing to them and knocking on their door, 3) They are embarrassed, 4) They feel helpless, 5) They have the belief that winning the lotto will bail them out at the last minute, 6) It's the bank's fault, 7) This can't be happening to them, 8) They don't want to sell, 9) The house (even though it has a leaky roof and hasn't been kept up) is worth more than market price, 10) Believe you are there to take advantage of them, 11) Believe the government should do more to protect them, 12) Believe that their payments reduce the principal directly proportionate to their payment (Have no concept of compound interest, what Einstein called "the 8th wonder of the world"). 13) They can file a Chapt 13 bankruptcy at the last minute and keep the house if they have income, 14) They will wait until the day before the sale and call you if none of the other solutions work.Your opening comment should be " I buy houses in the area and I was wondering if you or someone you know might be interested in selling".

The owner of the property has several other properties that are just sitting there. 

@Temitope,  I’ve invested personally in several, looked at hundreds of offerings, and  interviewed hundreds of other investors on their experiences.Crowdfunding is just like anything else, and there are both good and bad opportunities.  

I'm just saying that is how we run our business and we have had several buyers cash out of homes and get their own loans.  

I rent to several millennials and very few of them care at all about buying.

I found the tax card online and he paid way too much and on top of that let several lots go vacant in the meantime.

I’m not necessarily going after the property I was referring to, however that property is underperforming due to a severe lack of management because the owner is across country.

If you would like to meet up I specialize in educating our investors in management as I have several years of management with over 1500 units.

We just had many lose power here for several days.

He has been with a large franchise for several years but due to high fees is not renewing with them this year.
