I wanted to get the community's opinions on buying a property when the current landlord has already let it be known that they are selling because of a nonpaying tenant? 

They are nearly that expensive in Mississippi.

 The State Health Department regulates such here too. Each county has it's own office. Usually this is a mobile home issue. I know that Mississippi requires wastewater treatment systems for anything less than two acres. I replied to another person before I read your answer. Thanks!

I have only considered purchasing the home. I will not go farther until I get clarification. The house is outside the city limits (in the county). I am thinking of talking to the county's health department because I know they regulate wastewater treatment systems for mobile homes. I am assuming that they are the regulating authority for this matter as well.

I have been looking at a house that is for sale in rural Mississippi. It does and not have a septic tank. It only has a main drain that's running 'somewhere'. The house is on 1/4 acre which I assume would require it to have a wastewater treatment plant. The elderly owner had lived there for quite some time but she recently died.

Does anyone know if a septic tank can be installed in this situation? What would be the estimated costs? I do have some idea what a wastewater treatment system would cost for this 2/1 1,100 sq/ft. house.

Yes, I put that in the post. They are handles by the Department of Revenue the same agency that handles car titles. I thought about calling them and asking the procedure but assumed a state agency would consider that 'giving legal advice' and would just give me the blanket answer of 'contacting an attorney'. I will make sure I call them.

Has anybody been able to get possession or control of an abandoned mobile home IN MISSISSIPPI?

I have come across some land that was foreclosed on by the bank. They are now trying to sale the land only but there is a mobile home on it that has been abandoned. The mobile home appears to be in great shape. Through some research of my own I found out the the mobile home most likely belongs to the deceased owner of the land that went into foreclosure. He was 93 when he died in 2010 and I have not checked the Chancery Court in Mississippi yet to find out if anyone has taken any action on behalf of his estate. I do know that Mississippi treats mobile homes as personal property and this particular year of mobile would have been issued a title (much like a car from the Mississippi Department of Revenue). I could call them if I had the VIN number and see who owns it or is the lien holder.  I believe the mobile was paid for but was put on financed land. I am thinking that the Mississippi Department of Health in that county may have the VIN because they approve the wastewater treatment plants or septic tanks.

The realtor seems to be a novice and claims to have no information and 'couldn't' answer any of my questions 'because it is a foreclosure'. 

I am looking for landlords and property managers in the 48505 area of Flint, MI. I would like to ask them some questions.

I thank you all for your input!

Will Air BnB allow a property owner to utilize someone else to handle almost all aspects of their Air BnB account while sending the funds to the property owner's account? For example, a property owner lists the basement of their property on Air BnB. The property owner puts their tenant's picture in the Air BnB profile because the tenant will be the person interacting with Air BnB guests. Will Air BnB still send funds to the property owner's account in this situation?
