Arlo Cameras anyone? Sheriff removing prior owner tomorrow

Hello from NC! I've gotten so much useful info from your posts over the years, but never posted. I need some help please. We've purchased a foreclosure property for a flip & it's taken over 6 weeks for our attorney to get the prior owners out. Well, tomorrow is the big day! Hubby is meeting the sheriff out there to change the locks. I've heard many horror stories of the prior owners coming back to destroy the property. We've purchased the Arlo wireless security system. Anyone used it? Any other advise???? We've got to keep it locked up for 7 days & also meet the prior owners back out there (without law enforcement) if they choose to come get their belongings in those 7 days. I'm a little worried about that. These aren't nice people and have boldly refused to leave for 6 weeks even though they haven't paid a mortgage payment in almost 3 YEARS!!! 

The home is located in a nice neighborhood with a lot of neighbor's around, some of which are actually friends of ours. They try to keep an eye out for us when they are home. They let us know that "our new yard" is being meticulously cared for weekly! It's a crazy situation! Any advice would be greatly appreciated as all of the other properties we have purchased have been vacant. Thank you!

    I wish I had advice but I'm a newbie. I wanted to ask you how you got a property in a nice section of town. I used to go to auctions but they always got canceled just as auction was about to go off. Do you know a banker? I hope one day I can help you with advise and good luck on your project. Sounds like your long term prospects there are very very good.

    Hi Michael, we go to MANY auctions. I wish we did have some banker connections! My husband and I currently also have full time 'regular' jobs so it gets hard sometimes to find the time. We occasionally find one on MLS but we purchase most at the county courthouse auctions. Good luck!
