If you end up buying it through a land contract, as was stated above, get a local lawyer to represent you, and make sure you end up with good title with no liens, back taxes owed, etc., and that you are in fact dealing with the actual owners. If you really want to do it yourself, you can probably find Michigan forms in your local Stationer's store or office supply, and go the Clerk's office and run the title yourself(it is possible), and check the Lis Pendens for any liens, and the mortgage books for any outstanding mortgages(old ones will show up as being "satisfied").
