@Sam Josh Most if not all of the data you've asked about is publicly available, you just need to hunt for it.

I didn’t have a computer or internet.

Personally I haven't noticed a difference in sec 8 tenants and non sec 8.

For Fidelity, the magic word is "non-prototype account".

In a non owner occupied building, that isn't zoned commercial, you can only rent out a place for 90 nights per year as a short term rental.

(TaxSale/TaxDeed Question on Non-Commercial Properties)I am confused with the timeline of the redemption period, specifically in TX.Does redemption period start the day there is a winning bidder on the property?

For you, a non licensed person, to have access to that information would be a violation of the fiduciary relationship the seller has with the agent/broker, and the agent could and should lose their license for such a breach of trust.

Do some people have some different stories how they bought properties in some non-traditional ways?

I would file for eviction for non-payment of rent.

Just posting this here for others and for public scrutiny.
