The title search would likely happen simultaneously to your own due diligence and the lender's due diligence so it wouldn't really be separate steps.

I’m on the final step.

.🔹 Step 3 & 4: Foundation & Pest Control (If Needed)Not every house needs foundation work, but if the floors feel like a funhouse or there are termites throwing a party, handle it now.

.🔹 Step 1: Secure the HouseBefore anything else, slap a lockbox on the door and get some keys made.

As titled, I am looking to finally step out of my comfort zone and buy my first property.

The VCCO might not give you information outside of how much the tenant should be getting for rent payments, which is why filing for eviction is a good step. the VCCO will be notified and they may come to you, and you can get some answers that way.Another thing about filing is that the court can enforce a payment plan and a condition of the payment plan could be that you receive your payments directly and that rent is taken out of the tenant's compensation package before the rest of it is given to them.

This part is a foregone conclusion for me, but what I am still working out is next steps.

Then it's simple, build the home, find crews to do the work (you should already have them basically from the prior step), excavation, concrete, sealing, framing, roof/gutters/siding, windows, insulation drywall, plumbing, HVAC, electrical, finishes, etc. basically in that order.

Love that you are stepping out IN FAITH @Torrean Edwards!
