My guess that would be when the property foreclosure was completed and the deed was officially transfered to the bank.  

@Larry Fried ok,I am officially confused.

I would take the profit and invest in bigger deals; perhaps syndication.500k - in the market. put most of that into cash. get out of the market.not official advice. just what I would do.

Ex: factor longer hold times, learn the inspection regulations, make friends with the inspectors and town officials.

Mine (for retail buyers only) states that the buyer agrees that in exchange for my professional services, they will buy their home through me - though there is no obligation to buy a home and no payment due if they don't.For investors, it says that if they buy a home I introduce them to, they will buy it through me.It is simply amazing to see just how many people will happily burn up an agent's time and gas, kicking tires for weeks or months - only to announce as they're ready to write an offer that their Aunt Millie has her real estate license and they'll have her write the offer - and make the commission.A smart agent won't allow that to happen any more than any other professional would.

Any specifics (i.e. recommendations of contractors, lawyers, or city officials to speak with) would be really useful.

otherwise no one else official knows about it so neither do the lenders or insurance companies. what else will the inspector find while they are there?

Hi All, hoping I can get some ideas from folks who have been in the real estate industry for a while as I am officially at a loss here...

@Rohit Dhing  I forgot... if they do not have a policy on file about how much they will charge for document production do an official request for every document the HOA has created since you bought the property. 

I know there are events in every state for individuals for meet ups and such, but was wondering if the is an actual official BP meet up, or annual event hosted specifically for BP??
