What’s the easiest and most effective way of removing wall paper?

I’m working on a remodel for a sale and the pervious owners wall papered the entire house floor to ceiling. The paper is like vinyl so it’s easy to pull off but the adhesive paper behind it is a pain. I’m trying to steam it then scrape it off with a putty knife but that takes forever. any other suggestions?

What is the procedure of buying auctioned homes after seeing an ad in paper, check liens, Titles, mortgage?

How do you check for liens and taxes, what other items should be checked? The ad says “beneficiary may elect to bid less than the total amount due”, what do they mean, and who is the beneficiary? If people are still living @ the property, how does the buyer inspects, or takes possession of the property since the ad claimes ” the sale in an ‘as is’ condition, without covenant or warranty, regarding title, possession or encumbrances to satisfy the “indebtness secured by said Deed of Trust, advances thereunder, with interest as provided, and the unpaid principal of the Note secured by said Deed of Trust with interest thereon as provided in said Note, pluse fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee and of the Trusts created by said Deed of Trust”? Looks like there are so many legal language that I like to know exactly what is involved? Also Is it O.K. to approach owners, and what should be offered? A property is auctioned for smal amount of backed association dues, what happens to Mortgag?
Any of you pros out there, anyone with experiece, anyone who actually gone through this procedure, and got properties in auction, through ads in the local newspaper? Also somebody was advising of going out there and purchase 2nd loans and get 15-17% interest on it?

Is my landlord BSing me? Read what they told me…?

I had a 6 month lease, when it expired they sent us a paper asking if we wanted to renew our lease. It said to circle one of the options (renew for 1 year, renew for 6 months, or renew on a month-to-month basis) and then sign it. The different options had different rental proces associated with them.SO we circled “renew for 6 months” and signed it. It is my understanding that the purpose of the letter was to determine if we would be staying at the apartment complex, so they would know whether or not they could put it up for rent. Also, so they knew what terms to put on the lease. Shortly after this, they asked us to come in and sign the lease for our 6 month renewal. We haven’t, because things have changed and we decided we want to do month to month, b/c we need to move due 2 job reasons. When we went in to sign the lease (on a monthly basis), the landlord said that the little piece of paper we signed previously is legally binding- and that we have to stay the 6 mos. BS?!
we have not signed any leases yet… No where on the paper did it say that it was a contract.

Thanks in advance for your help everyone!

Where can I go to see what Land is for sale?

I live in Arkansas and I would love to buy some land for my son and I to live on- should I google it? Ask a real estate agent? Look thru the paper? Someone please help me..
Do agents charge you, or do they get their money from what you buy? In other words, even if you do not find what you need, do you still have to pay them?
