This is such an important topic I wish to ask this:  even if the animal threatens the health of a neighbor or roommate via severe allergies or asthma?

but they often know the clients personal and financial status and they (the health care professionals) hob knob with the lawyers that are handling the wills and estates...

I would express our concern for their health and well being.

I hold a masters of science in accounting, and i have experience in the health care industry & Banking.

Because the home was owned by a single woman with health issues, the home is in disrepair but not abused, other than her dogs ruining the carpets.  

I’m a CPA with experience in tax preparation for real estate investment partnerships and am currently a property controller for a commercial real estate property management company specializing in the health care industry.

True wealth is the combination of health, happiness, $, love, etc. 

The plan is to buy the Cash-only REO using our LLC, fix the health and safety issues in this home (which will then make it financeable), and then purchase the house with my approved 150k residential loan.

Another aspect is here health and likelihood of ending up in a nursing home, that sale can come back in her determination of assets to qualify for benefits.
