I see with some banks they require atleast 6 months of having the title which is kind of long.

It is probably a conflict of interest on some level somewhere.I guess it's kind of a slap in the face to the bank also.

My family kind of wants to keep the house and borrow against it because the property taxes are so low.

I wouldn't ever consider such a high offer of $15,000; it is cheaper to just fight them in the foreclosure.I also have to think, that kind of a number blows your budget and profit into pieces.

If it were, there may be some kind of implicit agency at work...

I'd say it's the investor's responsibility to run a tight ship, but this kind of issue should be something that the title company knows about and insists upon solving prior to closing and transferring title.

If you spend a lot of effort on focusing on the challenges rather than solutions you probably are going to have a more difficult time moving in the direction I think you want to go.I know this may seem like kind of a vague response but it is extremely important to be honest with yourself and figure out why you want to do real estate.

That just kind of left a bad taste in my mouth about TigrentLearning.com.

I posted on here a couple months ago about a company called LegalShield, they offer a monthly rate (about $17) to have unlimited discussions with an attorney about these kinds of things.

I have purchased thousands of tax liens, what kind of help are you looking for?
