I was born and raised in Maryvale, and currently live in South Mountain village.  

When looking in the Bronx, look in Throgs Neck, Country Club, Morris Park, Indian Village, Pelham Bay and Pelham Gardens.

I was hoping someone could tell me what to expect when it comes to permits or village requirements.

@Cj Juan here in Illinois it depends on the village you are working in if you need permits or not.

I agree that doing deals solo is the best way but getting started in anything is hard and sometimes it takes a village.

In reality, the memorandum of offering from the Vendor and their agent is fiction.
