Ever dealt with crazy??? Bought tax deed & occupant is crazy.

[Anastasia Jordan]

Summary:  Last year my business partner (who is no longer allowed to pick out houses) wanted to buy a tax property in Norwood (listening to his mother).  We road around for a good bit and it seems like all the good tax properties were already bought.  We put in a few applications on what was left.   

Got a price quote for $11k on an occupied house that looks like Fred Samford and the mutants from "The Hills Have Eyes" might live there. 

Petitioned the state to take $500.  

They accepted the $500.  

Business partner decides that he doesn't want the house after I pay for it.  

State now has this new stupid rule where you have to agree to not sell it back to the owner or anyone who had redemption rights. 

Made contact with occupant with see if we could resolve the matter. 

Occupant is crazy.  I am 100% sure if he were to get an eviction notice he would set the house on fire, after he kidnapped me first.  I want out.

Put some ads out on FB, giving full disclosure of the situation.  Several people have reached out to take this mess off my hands.

NEVER again will I buy an occupied house.
