It would be real nice to find a deal like that. There are a lot of local farms in the area though so I might not find anyone.

My father-in-law has a SCAG mower like this one and he flys around his property and gets it mowed quick.

Buying a foreclosure can be a roller coaster ride and this house is no exception. One day things are going great and the next is a disaster.

Two days ago - Well and septic pass inspection.....GREAT!

Today - There are over $26,000 worth of liens still on the property....FUCK!

Yep.

My attorney said it was an improperly performed foreclosure.

I don't know how long it will take to straighten out, but it could be months....or longer.

Fuck.

Ouch, that sucks. Just when you were all psyched to move in and start making it yours.

It really sucks.

At this point, I don't know if they bank has to redo the entire foreclosure process which could be a year or more.

Or, if they pay off the liens which might take a few months.

On one of the liens, I think the former owner didn't pay his property taxes for two years and it's a federal tax lien.

It's been a real roller-coaster ride.

I had even bought a tool called a "PaintShaver" that was on "This Old House" so I could start taking the paint off the siding to restain it.
