@Brian Barcelona that is great news.

A very large percentage, perhaps the majority, of mom-and-pop operations here simply pocket the cash and never intend to return a cent of it.I'm sorry to be the bearer of bad news,

Definitely good news.

stanby for news

It's hard stometimes to not "knee-jerk" react to giving bad news and throw an apology out with it.

Along the way the GC and subcontracted plumber mentioned numerous times that they found great news or thought of more efficient solutions (i.e. the mainline plumbing under the basement was intact--that they had assumed was all broken and needed replacing).

The auction is going on now..https://www.metrotimes.com/news-hits/archives/2018/07/13/1500-detroit-households-face-tax-foreclosure-ahead-of-fall-auctionThe good thing is you can get a whole lot of house for your money in C class and below.

Good news is once paid off your score goes right back up.Now if you were talking 50k of a 100k credit or a HELOC then yea sure.

@Brit Dunlop  Yes its definitely commercial loans - mixed use. your best bet is probably a local bank or try to get it at seller financing.The good news is the 2 apartments shouldn't be hard to fill in, the shop could take longer. are you dealing through a broker or the seller directly?? 

I thought it was an older article as it is basically a rerun of past articles, with the same "news".
