thanks for all the advice,
the problem has self rectified, the mother is having 2 new grandchildren (the 3rd and 4th in the last year) so they need more room. We did notify the police regarding the car, (it appears the stearing is jacked up broken tie rod, or steering as both wheels are pointed in different directions)
The bad neighbors moved this weekend, and the police towed the car.
as far the the pre-forclosure, we have investigated, but do the the bubble bursting, or the more correct term slight correction, the loan is upside down, house is worth $ x, but the loan is worth $x + 10%. I am still going to go to the foreclosure auction ( I went to the first one but auction was postponed)
As far a HOA we do not have one, but we do have CCR, which forced the previous landlord to have the lawn mowed, and broken down cars moved out of the driveway.
Fredweena, your local police dept probably has a tip line or something like that, if there is illegal activity going on that might be a start. Also if you have CCR or neighborhood association, littering, "junking up the place" might be in voilation, and you could force the land lord to do something. Otherwise the loud music could be cited by the police....
Unfortunatly the landlord purchased the house in Nov 2005, in Dec 2005 the house was in default, unsure why the new owner would cause a foreclosure based on their actions, but it does not look like they are very involved landlords.
I do hope it goes to foreclosure auction, and either gets purchased by an investor that will flip it, or goes to bank owned real estate, so I would have the opportunity to purchase ( I do not have cash to purchase at auction, but could get financing to flip it myself)
