I'm a rookie investor looking to do my first deal. I'd be nervous with an auction but this is a little overwhelming...
[list]

  • The resident has been in assisted living for some time now(he won't be moving back).

  • The house is in a life estate.

  • His son and some cousins recieve (?) the home when the man dies.

  • The county Public administrators office is his executor/power of attorney (?). She said that they are trying to get the county to declare the house abandoned. The hearing by the county health dept. is in a few days.

  • It is over two years behind on taxes and will be auctioned this summer unless it's brought current.

  • The house is a wreck. But if it's like others in the neighborhood it's of solid construction.

  • [/list:u]
    What do I need to know, what is the proceedure for this sort of thing? This wasn't covered in my online class. :wink:

    Can I do this deal? Should I even try?
