There seem to be a lot of shingles lifting up and it appears to be close to needing replacement.

So, a seller would need to do a seller financed note with a down payment that appears satisfactory and customary, the note would then be sold at it's market value and the cash would then go to the state/nursing home.

It doesn't appear that anybody got any funds for this loan as we doubt that any criminal has been making payments for 8 years in order to keep it current.

Personally, I think this is bad advice...Even if the renovation appears safe, if something happens that causes injury to a tenant or a tenant's property, you will open yourself up to a PERSONAL lawsuit.Now, of course, anyone can sue you at anytime and for any reason, but that's why you should have a legal corporate entity that will limit your liability in the case of a lawsuit.
