I just purchased a water lien at a tax sale.4 months later, I confirmed water bills are STILL unpaid by the homeowner, and I have confirmed the $$ amount owned, but I have tried unsuccessfully to pay this water lien AND ADD it to my current Tax Certificate (recorded from the county).Whenever I speak to the Tax Collector, she says yes I can pay it, but when I tell her I want to pay it ONLY to add the balance to my outstanding Tax Certificate balance owed so I can collect 18% on the new amount paid, she looks at me like I have two heads.My assumption was it was possible to add new outstanding liens to my previous Tax Sale purchase.

You might, but good luck collecting it if they are not paying rent.

We gave him till the end of the month, when I collected the keys he claims he doesn't have a forwarding address, and said I had to call to turn off the utilities-that's when I find out most were turned off due to non- payment.The big kicker, the next door neighbor is his brother AND boss.I'm so upset, we thought we had a good tenant and then we had to deal with so much BS, has anybody else had an experience like that?

I recently read Brandon Turners 14 Things Real Estate Investors Should Do Every Day and a big one was "Review Your Big Goals".One of my big goals is to create passive income that I can collect with little hassle and owner financing homes to owner occupants is a business model that I find to be a very intriguing business acumen.

I'm not an App Fee Troll but I do collect apps and fees as fast as I can.

The seller is acting like I'm an idiot for thinking that the amount of deposit written in the lease is the actual amount collected.  

In addition the property manager does not collect 10% from the Section 8 subsidized income portion of the rent as "she does not do work associated with collecting the Section 8 portion of the rent."  

Have the PR submit a claim, you collect and repair after closing. 

Another option I was thinking of is keep it for a year rent it out for a year lease, collect some cash flow then sell.
