I am 28 years old and have been paying $2350 on top of our $1200 monthly payment on our 120k house (taxes are about 400 a month here) @ 6%.I was wondering what would happen if i paid it off, but then continued to buy one house at a time as it is paid off too.

The MSL number is not valid any longer.We went and looked into the windows yesterday to find out that the home has been stripped, the entire kitchen, and all bathroom cub boards, granite counter tops, fixtures, appliances, even the kitchen sink is gone.We realize that this has dramatically reduced the value of this home and we would still like to make an offer on this home hire a out of work sub- contractor to work for cash and replace everything back the way it was.The question I have is when I looked up the property records the home is still listed in the person's name that has defaulted but the clerk and comptroller's office is showing that this person has a judgement against them on this property from back in December.Is it possible that the records have just not been updated quick enough to show that the bank now owns this home?
