Neighbor's garage on property I reviewed

Hello, so in my viewing of a property I think I could make work for a brrrr, she has a neighbor's garage built in the property. He's an old man that takes pride in the look of his home and could be an ally as he called the prior owner when anything went South.

At first blush I looked at that and the age of the HVAC and the signals she was sending that she didn't want to take an investor offer and I declined to offer

She still hasn't listed the home and is a motivated seller. Talk to me about how you'd look at the garage situation. Keep it in the back of my mind and when something happens to the guy get it surveyed and ask him to tear it down ?

Did a lot of work prospecting this deal and didn't want my relative newbie Outlook to cause me to look at creative ways to solve problems
