I can step back on it a bit and don't have to be so actively involved, which helps during vacation times.I think that there are many home warranties that may not have worked well for some people, AND not ALL home warranty companies are alike, so they really need to be judged individually. 

The amount of the bond is set by the judge at the injunction hearing and must be paid to stop the foreclosure.

Their attorney agreed to the judgement and requested additional time to vacate the house and the judge agreed and gave them 60 days to leave the house including an eviction order was placed in the final order.We talked to their attorney and offered them cash for keys of $1500. 

Would anyone know what happens if the owner of the property has declared bankruptcy and the property sells at a sheriffs sale?

@Michael Plaks, But you can absolutely have a written enforceable lease with your son and charge him market rent, collect market rent, cash the market rent checks, declare the market rent as income, and give you son up to $14000 in cash gifts correct?

I would do the things above,  and also contact him telling your sister/brother-in-law/uncle is a judge (don't mention they judge cat shows) and you were advised this is a felony wire fraud, or just fraud, whichever seems more plausible, punishable by a minimum of 2 years in prison. 

The economy and market dictate which, and we are the judge and jury as to making the final decision (but we do this with an informal solicitation of our investor’s opinions).  

Unfortunately if it goes to court, the judge will almost always rule in favor of the HOA (at least in NY) unless you can prove gross negligence by the HOA.

I don’t want to touch the financing - very very attractive rate and term.I think we’re ok from a federal filing perspective, but would have to formally declare for the CA return.

Not knowing about something is no excuse in court, so attempting to use that before a judge will not go in your favor.
