I was researching taxes on a property in Texas, much to my amazement, I ran along a property that doesn’t have title or anyone paying taxes (I couldn’t believe that someone at the tax office missed this one) but I need some direction. Does someone know realestate law in Texas? How do I get title to the property? Thanks in advance.

The better odds are that SOMEBODY has title to the lot. You would have to do a title and chain of title search (not clear above that you did one). It is probably "part" of another tract of property. My money would be on the idea that the tax department overlooked it and some individual is benefiting by not being billed.

Ok, the selling agent would most likely get 2.25% or 45% of the whole percentage. The listing agent would get 2.75%.

Now understand, that the broker’s takes a cut of each. So if you were a top producer you might get 75% of 2.75% as the listing agent, out of that comes all the expense of marketing the property, all your health insurance, and income taxes and personal living expenses.

Alright, well my mom and I are thinking of moving to Palmdale but we can’t exactly afford a full priced home. So what I did was check the listings of foreclosed home. Now it says the loan balance is like 3,000 on average. Now on this page http://realestate.yahoo.com/California/Palmdale/Homes_for_sale/0dac4c81272c5cd9bcb396cce3090835;_ylt=AtW9lg8TWCjWcyS4ExQmn_LnMrQs?cc=realestate&p=Palmdale,%20CA&priceHigh=&priceLow=&nodeId=750007014&radius=&bedrooms=2&bedrooms=3&bedrooms=4&bedrooms=5&bathrooms=2.0&bathrooms=2.5&bathrooms=3.0&bathrooms=3.5&bathrooms=4.0&type=foreclosure&sortBy=price+1
it says the loan balance is $2238 but it also says the amount is $2238. So is that the price or what? Thanks in advance.

No, of course that’s not the price. What you are seeing is the amount of money which the current homeowner is in default on the loan. Assuming that this property is eventually fully foreclosed upon, the bank will offer it for sale at the current market value for the property. What they will accept to sell it may not be market value, but it will be FAR more than $2238.

how can I get a business entity/name and build business for buying realestate? Iam interested in buying tax deeds in any state please help with more information where do I start? can I buy tax deeds without using my own money/credit? can I buy online?

You can register a corporation, But you are trying to persuade people to lend you money too. The question is how can you persuade people to lend you money, sell to you on credit while at the same time hiding your own assets from risk in the venture.
Find gullible people is the only answer that works.
If you do not want your assets exposed to this risk, you have to be offering very high reward to get others to risk theirs.

My wife and I moved to a new city 3 yrs ago for my new job. I am now able to work completely remote and we would like to move back to our home town, but the realestate market here is very poor. We really can’t think about a new home untill we feel confident ours will sell.

Any one have any alternates to listing and selling the home? Its been on the market for almost 4 months now.

Bridge loans do not look like that good of an idea, but any opinions on these?

Thanks in advance.

You have the wrong real estate agent. How long did you sign your listing for 180 days? You should have signed a 60 day lease with a 30 day roll period if you were pleased the agent was doing all in his power to sell the property. Never give more than 60 days.

Now in answer to your question about an alternative plan for your house that you want to do something with. Are you relying on this house’s equity to purchase another house in your home town?

If not then I would lease it with an option to purchase (buy) Advertise this in the local paper. This way you will be able to get a small down with a known term that you can rely on. A down payment is normally between 3-5% Non-refundable even if they do not take their option.

If they refuse or can’t exercise their option, you can offer them another new option with another down payment or get others on a new lease, doing the same thing over again.

If you feel comfortable leasing it for 2-3 years do so, make sure that your contract with the person leasing the property has a clause that all landscape is the responsibility of the person leasing the property. Also all repairs under $100.000 are the responsibility of the person leasing the property. Other damages will be negotiated at the time of the occurrence.

This will keep the maintenance calls down to a minimum, so you can have peace on weekends.

You can designate that a certain amount of the rent will be held toward the down payment of the property if and when they decide to exercise their option.

You can find lease agreements at Staples or Office Depot or any other stationary store. You may add or take away what you want to say or not say in the lease agreement. Specify the number of people that will be living there if you will allow pets and how long guest are allowed to stay (Normally 30 days) If you are going to leave any appliances there make sure they understand they will not be replaced at your expense.

There is nothing secret or so impeling about a lease that you would need any help in doing so. A person with good common sense can accomplish it without problems.

In your search for someone to lease your place you must interview them, find out about their ability to pay(Look at paystubs and 2 yrs of W-2 from each adult on the lease), length of time they have been on their job Telephone #, call Human Relations. to verify that they issued the W-2 as pay stubs. Ask for a couple of month of bank statements this will prove that they have enough for the down payment you ar asking for so that they may exercise their lease.

After you have found someone to lease the place, both you and them ahve signed the lease, give them a move in date, a set of keys and turn off all utilities.

I hope this has been of some use to you, good luck
