So, I didn't even bother.Later, I found out that you call sell the judgement to a collection agency for pennies on the dollar. 

agree with  those are pennies compare to Pigeon Forge and Disney World over here

And here the bathroom and the 2 other rooms.All right, now the entire remodel.1st Removing the middle bar area, ripping carpets, vinyl flooring, and trims.2nd - Fixing up walls, patching holes, mud on ceilings, skim coating , new doors and window trims and paint.My idea was to paint the kitchen cabinets, which I did.

It might cost $100 to put in nicer knobs and pulls, but that, fixing crooked doors, and a fresh coat of paint can make an old kitchen look trendy and high-end.Eike

Moreover, I personally have not paid a penny due to California's "regulatory" costs. 

Save it though - copper is worth selling/recycling even still in the jacket.

@Penny Clark above gives great advice for hiring an extermination company and performing an inspection.

If you were to sell this judgment to a debt buyer, you'd get pennies on the dollar, at best.

They're not going to walk away with a penny at closing regardless if it sells for exactly what they owe or something much less.It sounds like part of the problem is the selling agent not explaining to his/her client how things work and what to expect.

The other thing is if they were negligent, for instance baseball through a window, pennies down the drain (just happened to me), or broke a light horse playing.
