Hello,

I am looking to buy a rural house in South Carolina.  It is a large old farmhouse that has lots of additions to it over the years.  On the second floor there is a back staircase and a sort of "in-law" suite with a small kitchen that connects to the rest of the 2nd floor bedrooms.  There are two full baths on the second floor. 

The appraiser is saying that the house is a duplex because of this situation.   I guess in theory somebody could live in that suite if the doors to the rest of the 2nd floor were locked, but why would the appraiser be pushing this approach when it is not listed as a duplex on the listing or on the county tax roles and nobody plans on using the house as a duplex?

Is there a location where I can see what the true legal definition of a single family house is vs a duplex?

Thanks for any help.

Hello all,

I am interested in marketing design and consulting services to owners of strip malls and retail centers in the Southeast region.  Could anyone suggest a good source to get a targeted mailing list of owners of those properties?  

Best regards,

Zachary

I started buying tax liens in Indiana last year and would be happy to talk over some of the basics that I learned.  

Working in Indiana doing our own title searches and notifications but using an attorney to claim the tax deed we have gotten empty building lots for under $450.  The tax lien itself was only $35.
