And never give a tenant/ project manager a credit card ( I pretty much added that in for myself- anyone reading this with any common sense already knows that) So the purpose of this post is two fold- One- I would love some advice on how I can get my credibility back with this tenant and avoid this every single month until his lease expires in June.

Is it possible to buy a house that's been defaulted on and is posted to go to auction at a later date, say 3-10-2020.

I'm far more concerned with long term appreciation, but finding a deal that cash flows $200+ has proven difficult to date as I just dont see rents over $1200-1500 in most B/C+ neighborhoods.Is this more of a reflection of a market to flip or just not having found the right deals yet? 

If I understand it correctly it is primarily to bring the property up to date and to repair damaged parts of the home.

Since you occupied it over 2 years You can sell it fully tax free if you do so before it has been a rental for a total of 3 years (you didn't give exact dates).

If the tenants have a contract on a place with a closing date or a signed lease for a new place would that satisfy them. 

There is not a lot to it as long as you paper your tenant when appropriate, always deal with issues as though they will be reviewed at some future date by a Judge.

We allowed ourselves ample time to close, but with the way the calendar fell there was multiple holidays in between the expected date of closing.

I say two years because depending on the sale date it can take some time for the true tax to show up on records.
