., houses that have been foreclosed on by local tax authorities for lack of paying property taxes. granted, most of these houses are in such a state of disrepair that they probably should be burned down and started over, but buying this way teaches you how to become one hell of a great handyman. start getting your credit in order. you hear a lot about these " credit repair" companies all around. the truth is,  THEY CANNOT DO ANYTHING FOR YOU THAT YOU CANNOT DO FOR YOURSELF. go to annualcreditreport.com and get a free copy of your credit report from all 3 agencies. by law, you are entitled to a free report each year from each company. on annualcreditreport.com, you can dispute every negative thing you see. thats how these credit repair places do it. they go on here and dispute anything that looks negative. by law, the credit agency has to follow up on your dispute to any and all creditors that you dispute. these creditors have 30 days to respond back to the agency as to whether or not this report is accurate. if they fail to answer back in 30 days, then that part of the report is removed from your report, just as if it never existed. hence, your credit score goes up and you become more desirable to  lenders. 

I just uploaded the pics above but I don't know how to do the @ thing to respond to Chris k.  

I appreciate you taking the time to respond. 

Hopefully they will respond and we can work out a deal and I can get paid!!!

I looked up that title company, and there is a BBB alert on it, as they don't respond to BBB correspondence anymore.

@Ashley Swift I've found that the best way is through other investors that you know.

Luke W. thank you for responding.

Some homes are zoned in commercial areas, a seller might assume it will be a commercial loan, but if the buyer moves in using it as a residence, it's a consumer loan.The difficult thing about taking a survey, which I'd like to see too, is that the respondents may read the listed "possible" exemptions and fail to look at the difference that some states apply as to an owner selling and someone being in the business of financing real estate sales, or land that may be used to build a residence.
