A property owner facing tax lien dilemma can be quite agitated to approach for a deal. However, if you say the right words and let him know that you’re just there to help with the tax debt, then he might change his mind. If he does so, here are some errands to do:
- Contact the owner directly.
- Let him know of your interest in the property.
- Talking in person is always better rather than sending an email or over the phone.
- Schedule a meeting to further discuss the possible sale of the property. Remember that this is also your chance to see the property.
- By seeing the property, you can gauge if it meets your criteria.
- You may have to purchase the property as is, so take note of the estimated costs of repairs because you’re going to consider this while making your offer.
When both of you agree and all goes well, then it is time to negotiate the terms of purchase of the property.
