We have reached out to every buyer/seller agent as well as previous owners to try and get statements proving it was an apartment.The issue is... now we need plans drawn up, a permit issued, and a city inspection on something that was converted decades ago and will cost thousands of dollars and time. 

Typically a worthwhile real estate broker will save you time through efficiency and add at least equivalent value in actual dollars through effectiveness.  

You may need to spend a few hundred dollars to get a lender name change if the new lender requires that, but depending on when you rate locked you may still end up saving money with a new lower rate.

I’ve been wondering how long it took to amass $1 million dollars net worth for those of you who have achieved it?

Multiple, billion dollar companies are investing heavy in our area, such as Intel, Google, and Amazon.

While yes they spent time on something they were unsuccessful and still got paid, while me as the owner is out thousands of dollars due to tenant not paying rent and causing quite a bit of damage.  

Just think about it from your point of view - would it be easier to stand on the street corner and get 1,000 people to give you a dollar, or one guy to give you $1000?

Who then like others said, wanted 150 dollars to talk to an attorney who then would give me a custom plan and a custom quote.  

.- Mobile is home of Mardi Gras which brings in a whopping quarter-of-a-billion dollars in revenue and sends hundreds of thousands of tourists to the city each year.- Mobile has the only cancer research center along the upper gulf coast providing a wide array of medical jobs to the area.- Mobile’s low cost of living and doing business provides a desired aspect to renters that can’t be achieved elsewhere, which provides a steady influx of renters thereby decreasing vacancy rates.

@Vi Huang going to guess you either went with the cheapest PMC you could find or the one spending the most marketing dollars to get in front of you.YOu need to look for a new PMC!
