Wow thanks guys that's some good info I never would of known about. My goals would be rehab and flip just because my situation I'm a carpenter and have a lot of resources and knowledge to fix just about anything. What kind of money could you start with obviously more is better but say I walked into a realtor office with 50k what would they say if I told them my plans? Obviously there job is to make money to I'm not trying to be a billionaire just make do with what I have.

Hey thanks I'm really excited to learn more about this I got carried away on my first post i never noticed the whole section allotted to foreclosures and reos.

Hello my name is Shawn I'm a Philadelphia carpenter looking to purchase homes in or around Philadelphia area. I'm fairly young and have little understanding of how these processes work. I read a lot about people buying homes and selling them and all kinds of terms being thrown around it's quite intimidating. A co worker of mine got me hooked a few years ago on something called a sheriff sale I've done some research but the process seems risky I would like to look into these further. For instance if I have a question about something say a tax delinquent sale how does this work exactly do you essentially pay that persons taxes and if they don't pay them within that year you will own that property? It's hard to find these answers clearly. I have lots of questions probably buried in these forums somewhere but I would like to know how and where to get started I've saved a lot of money and would like to further secure my future. Thanks for any help just throwing all this out maybe someone can help me out. Shawn
