and there are foundation issues that will crop up and not if but when the soils there are expansive.. so those two things.. have to be taken into consideration.what happens as well is if you buy an owner occ... they could have very low tax's as they get the owner occ exemption.. then when it goes to rental the tax's sky rocket.. and poof there goes your cash flow you thought were going to get.Just like folks that live in Texas why would they buy in CA and subject them selves to CA income tax and the 800 a year franchise tax... when they pay none in Texas it all evens out.. plus they don't have the expense of travel there etc.there are better tax treatment states for buy and hold out there... and if your appreciation is marginal then cash flow is the only reason to buy them

I get new member notifications for Denver almost daily.

@Dawn Anastasi I think the price point depends on if I'm going to partner with someone or not.

Jay - the mortgage lien does not get extinguished unless the lender has been properly served notification; so, either they already know and are letting it go, or they don't know and maybe the mortgage lien survives the tax sale.
