Heller is an influential member of the Senate Finance Committee and has pledged to attach the bill to a larger piece of legislation that is moving through the committee. 

We were told that we have the option of reclassifying it as 2 attached SFR, but are not sure of the process or what ramifications this would have on us down the road when we try to resell.Can anyone offer some insights?

I have a friend looking to purchase a home in Denver and they heard they can add a garage to the property with a loft attached.  

In some rare cases there are mineral rights attached to small residential properties and in very rare cases they become valuable. 

@Elliot Lamson just do what I do and am currently negotiating If you profit has room reduce your assignment fee to pay the 3% and offer the seller more but advise the purpose to the price increase is to pay off commissionexampleif you are at $138K( 3% is $4,140 )And you have $15K assignment fee, Offer to pay $142K (3% $4,260) instead and advise the seller that they will still net the $138K agreed upon but the additional $4K is for the commission. or same something along the lines of to net $138K I will give you more to compensate for the fees attached to the sale.This way the deal is a win, win situation  and you are not asking a buyer to pay $10K more when he is looking for the lowest deal possible. you here a property is $153,000 then end up paying 3% plus closing cost easily $10K extra that i will not pay. 

The build is about 70 years old and was built over top an original stone home foundation (see pictures attached). 

I have attached some photos of my concern areas (pics are sideways).

The second mortgage was attached to an alternate spelling of the owner's name and for some reason I'm still unable to do a record search by legal description of the property (name) on the Palm Beach Clerk's online system.  

From my experience these even the so called deals that are out there have a little issue attached to them that does not show on the comps that are being sold like " liens and fees from a city."  

I used to buy and sell on craigslist but found RE was something I was more attached to.
