A friend of mine in San Antonio had a similar situation.. she inherited a vague commercial lease and learned that the rules differ big-tiime from residential.

I am not sure which is best for our situation or what to pitch.

My opinion only 2 cases make sense for the seller 1) they have few options and this presents the best means to get out if a bad situation.  

In this IDEAL situation the savings is minimal.  

It would definitely be fraud if this was the case, a recent post from an auctioneer talked about this exact situation, where they said the auctioneer was liable (different bedrooms/type of home example you don't have to read it) States would differ though and it doesn't seem black and white. https://mikebrandlyauctioneer.wordpress.com/2022/07/12/no-li...I do agree with you that it could very well lead to being burnt, however.

What is the situation like in Kansas City?

Every situation is unique, and we work with strategic partners to provide solutions for almost any scenario.

So if yours is like the old time beach rentals - mismatched thrift store furniture, linens, and decor, you're going to struggle with reviews.

Bonus Tip:  Find a distressed HUD Home (google Hud Home Store) and you can buy a house for just $100 down!
