I own the property. 

My understanding (I've purchased property at a Virginia foreclosure auction) is if there is property left inside, you cannot simply throw it out. 

A good friend of mine started a property maintenance company in Brooklyn, NY (super competitive market) and grew his database by showing up to development sites, following investors and developers on social media, introducing himself to local property owners, posting his day to day on Instagram, and following up with his database regularly.I also agree with everything @David Peschio and @Drew Sygit suggested here!

It's the first question I ask when called about financing a foreclosed auction property. 

I don’t know ANYTHING about this property or offering; for all I know it could be the greatest deal since sliced bread.  

Buying with private money and increasing the value by rehabbing and renting the property then BRRRR does a few things.  

my recommendation is at a property manager and let them handle it

I am investigating starting my own property management company in Los Angeles.If you were to use my services, what would you like to get, and what services are overrated?

You’re on the right track, focus on properties where you can add value and build momentum over time.

Properties in good locations will always sell.
