thats why i have a real estate attorney, who, if you think about it, has as much or more on the line than i do. if it isn't a contract assignment or a double close, it's always been the lawyers idea of doing the deal this way and i would doubt any governing body would find objection to doing business like this as long as all parties involved know exactly whats going on (full disclosure), the funds are accounted for on the HUD1 form and the birddog isn't representing anyone in the deal, which they are not.shady, noillegal, not around herecreative, to bureacrats maybeyour other option - make the birddog assign a contract to you.

When every body was doubting me and telling me not to do it, i didnt  let any of that discourage me.

I don't understand how the governing body figures waiting three months for the sheriff coming out to be reasonable - and you have to pay them a fee on top of it!

Had I not received anything like that, my body language and tone would have changed to hint to them that they do not want me as a landlord.

My labor (mind and body) are only tools of the government and I should just be happy to have whatever they decide I can have. 

There are always buried bodies in every deal.

Try to work body art into your business cards.

We have just a couple of items left to touch up in the areas of the new "body" colors then paint the trim and that's done!

Fast forward I worked in sales for a short time and then accepted a role as service manager for a local body shop and my income nearly doubled.

Did that for a day or two, then made the big step, brought my other leg forward and promptly fell straight through the floor with my whole body!
