I live in Wyoming and we were impacted by the energy field layoffs of 2015.

Dominion energy is the supplier I have out there.

Overall it sounds like you and your client dodge a bullet here.  

If I am bidding against obvious amateurs with their hearts on their sleeves at the auction and I sense that they are willing to go significantly higher, I have no qualms about bidding them up a bit as a bar to entry into the group of experienced  auction buyers of the county who get things done in a civilized way and don't waste each other's time and energy when acquiring properties.

I assumed the energy he brings during his podcasts would transfer to the audiobook, but it doesn’t.

It had bullet holes, no outside HVAC unit and the copper plumbing underneath had been liberated.

All they will have invested is their time and energy.

Love the energy!

I've had many different scenarios played out, worst being getting a writ of possession from the Sheriff and them showing up in bullet proof jackets, drilling out the lock on the door only to get inside to have dog feces/urine 1" thick throughout the entire home!
