Basically means  that I will have to get the property to a condition that is acceptable for code enforcement during this period. 

I have finally got them in my hands ( straight from the state of Maines website) and now realize I have no idea really what I am looking at!

I had the same situation her ESA letter was bogus but i still accepted it.

They have a current cash offer in on the property that has not yet been accepted.

As a fellow Northerner, I tend to buy in the Southern half of the US for 2 reasons:1) you get much higher year-round occupancy rates in the South & it’s simply tough to earn a good ROI in the North if your place sits vacant for a big chunk of the year2) Culturally, the Southern half of the US seems to be a lot more accepting of STRs regulation-wise.

I already did her screening and verbally accepted her application, but my question is how to i move forward? 

You can check their website to see where they will be next.

Thank you all for your warm welcome :) Still learning to navigate the BP website.

To be honest as a broker I'm not sure we can really suggest accepting these types of offers given the high risk potential.

Assuming that's what you're looking for, the above mentioned google turned up this website: https://www.charlestoncounty.org/property-info.phpIf you click on the GIS parcel viewer option, there's a search bar where you can punch in a street address.
