I told her time to go I was always  in contact with her .I even paid a buddy a 100 to haul her crap quick she was a money losing deal I needed to stop the bleeding !

I bought the massive pile of crap and sold it 3 days later for $9,000 more.

And it's very clearly because of abuses of the free market, a lot of landlords pulling a lot of crap that they shouldn't be, especially down in C and D-class level properties where the tenants are weakest and the landlords have the most power.

Of those 40 days they have a 10 day appeal period (that's the main delay) which some local lawmakers are trying to eradicate. 

It's a crap return if you buy at $460k in 2020.I'm guessing the property has appreciated to the point that the sellers are now sitting on a pretty low ROE, and are trying to cash out at the expense of unsuspecting buyer, so that they can deploy their capital more profitably.Apples and oranges, I'm afraid.

Most expensive and would be a nightmare since I would have to dig up a concrete patio and a crap ton of rootsC) no dig pipe repair: Has anyone ever done this? 

But this one blindsided me because I know it’s not bull crap.

I'm well aware that neighborhoods can go from good to crap in a matter of blocks so my next step is to keep researching, find a knowledgable RE agent, property management and then do more research.Thanks for your insight. 

Its a load of crap for sure.

It's a great place to be, and while prices aren't ideal, if you have to live somewhere, better to get some equity and house hack the crap out of it while you live there.
