@Kim Meredith Hampton - Do you know where in the Statutes it dictates that 30 days notice must be given?

We need sale prices over 200/ft to make a deal attractive, simply because desirable land isn't cheap and the cost of construction dictates a certain spread.

The grandfathering is not done by the county; it is actually dictated by NFIP guidelines.

She doesn't know how much was owed on the property which I know will eventually dictate whether this is a deal or not.

Family situation dictated it.I got a decent-paying job in the Bay Area.

In most cases lenders (HML or conventional) dictate whether I can buy the property under my name or under LLCs name.

Ideally, you should be dictating insurance coverage's that you want to be quoted. 

We all know they are the vast minority, but they are the ones that are going to dictate public policy and the ones people remember.

You personal goes can also dictate what you do with the money.Good luck with whatever you choose!!

So with this background information, I have a two fold question:What is the likelihood that seller is acting on his own and bank is completely in dark about this, or is the bank dictating what the dates should be on the contract, and seller is just obliging?
