Issue is they don’t know who the lien holder is so they have to investigate. 

Apparently, the rising cost of assisting voucher holders has stretched the HCHA's budget thin.

Assuming the permit has been issued, I would imagine in a state such as CT you are located in a municipality that would at minimum require a licensed contractor to associate with the permit for the sole purpose of listing the municipality as a certificate holder under the insurance policy.

Was my first time investing with him, so decided not to go super high, but still a decent chunk of change Well the good news for you and anyone else who's stuck in a jam like this is that assuming you are the first lien holder you shouldn't have too rough of a time doing a foreclosure on any of the properties you hold a mortgage on.

Quote from @Denise Holder: Hi,, The house at the end of my street is abandoned, in chapter 13, condemned and the owners were hoarders.  

Of course, as is always the case, a lien will not be divested if the lien holder has not been given proper notice of the sheriff sale - so even a “free and clear” can have an encumbrance when a failure to properly serve notice happens.Hopefully that was sufficiently clear; if not, post more questions and I’ll do my best to offer clarification. 

I see no one starving if anything its the other way around for EBT card holders.

It seems like it is more at the behest of the hotel industry and the few permit holders wanting to protect their captured audience, because they strictly disallow hosted STRs, whether that be an ADU, extra room etc.

Faucets are older, towel holders are older, floors are older.  

Either way you probably have to contact 100 to 1000 note holders to get one deal..
