How bad are they in default any leans on the property?

Hi just won the eviction by default and when I go to the house, there is nobody there, but there are still last tenants belongings.

How do you feel about investing in tax defaulted properties?

I think your right Tom after doing more researching an understanding seller finance a little more Free and Clear seems to be more cleaner and if the buyer defaults for any reason at least the seller won’t have a mortgage owned by a lender which could much messer.

Plus, the court costs can be upwards of almost $800, with the filing fees for the eviction, the default judgement, etc.  

It's not about the fact that it's free, my wife likes the style better than our GC's default option.

For one, if the property has a lien on it, it'll typically be an event of default if you transfer the property to another owner.

I called BOA directly and they gave me a number to the foreclosure department...I called but the automated prompt will not let you speak to an operator unless you have an account or defaulted loan so they can trace your information.Is there anyone here in the South Florida market who knows how to negotiate bank owner properties or can direct me to who I can speak to, to possibly acquire said property?

Does anyone has experience bidding in tax defaulted properties in San Jose, CA? 

Second position mortgages are about as risky as they come.If for some reason this couple defaults on their loan to the first position lender, the first could foreclose and it is extremely likely that you would be wiped out.
