True.

@Tadas Bendaravicius If you have to replace one window, you have to replace them all, I think you are saying that is true in MA as well?

HOWEVER, on that note, just because it does not report on your credit DOES NOT mean it is non-recourse and therefore it DOES count towards your DTI calculation in most cases going forward.Off my side tangent, a true non-recourse loan is any loan that does not have any kind of personal guarantee. 

Most realtors are too quick to try to gloss over various issues thinking that by making it seem like there are less problems the sale is more likely to occur faster, maybe that's true but it'll just anger a savvy buyer if things are missed.

The anecdote that @Michael Baum is unfortunate but true.

The metrics for long term growth that made investors turn to Columbus still hold true and most of the job creation projects, like intels micro chip factory https://time.com/6140476/intel-building-factory-ohio/ haven't even been completed yet. 

I've been through 10 GCs so I took my lumps in order to learn, but now I'll warn others:  They'll say they can do anything, if their price is too good to be true - it is, they'll say they work toward a standard but they do not. 

Even if by some miracle you could pull off 100% financing you couldn’t service the debt.  

Our best offer would have been $175k and that holds true for today.

Just to really drive the point home on how easy most of these owners are to find if you're using a true quality skip trace service, feel free to message me and I'll personally run a couple for you and send you full reports on the owners and possibly the owners' relatives if I see anything that makes me think you should be contacting relatives.
