Question: is Michigan an anti-deficiency state?
Question: MICHIGAN PROPERTY…IF I AM IN REDEMPTION, HAVE FOUND A BUYER FOR THE HOME AND MY LENDER IS WILLING TO TAKE A SHORT SALE. DO I STILL HAVE TO PAY OFF THE SECOND LIEN ON THE HOUSE OR WAS IT WIPED OUT AT SENIOR LIENS SHERIFF’S SALE?
Answer: – It’s hard to say because I don’t know what happened at the auction. Typically in order to do a short sale, you need the 2nd to “release their lien” or “satisfy” it in order to get the acceptance.

Two months ago...if someone told me that I would have a deal going in real estate I would have told them they were crazy. I read the Foreclosure and Flippers books and started sending letters to people whose homes were up for sheriff's auction. I brought in an investor to buy the house and give my client some money to help him start over. The profit on this property will be about 40k. Not too bad for sending out a few letters.

I purchased your Foreclosure and Short Sale Program about a year ago and have found it invaluable.
