Thank you.Do I need to add a reason why their application was declined?

I would consider anything 3x from largest project will be an immediate decline, in this case, although it is 7x, however, it is spread in 4 phases, so it dramatically dropped down.

Hopefully, your Dad is a long ways away from that, but if you do hold onto the home, placing it in a Trust might be a wise thing if declining health could make that possible in 3-10 years?

If I as a contractor found out somebody was getting 10 bids for a job, I'd politely decline to bid.

Trailers old and in decline, yet still rented for the most part....Price is decent or probably be negotiated to such.My question is can a MHP come back to life with an infusion of newer but used trailer replacements and some investment in infrastructure or has the long years of decline permanently turned away future potential?

If they decline then they could be a scam.

The seller has had a buyer approach him numerous times attempting to buy everything but he continues to decline all offers.

Natural resources are not declining.

They declined and said it's not "industry standard" and they won't pay more until after work has been completed....Are we about to get scammed here?
