That contract for $3.8 million, which has been the subject of scrutiny by the Washington Post and local community members, constitutes about 20% of the program’s total administrative budget.  

If I were in government, each time something like this came up I'd ask where in the constitution are we authorized to make such a law?

Each state has different rules on what constitutes a septic test and what is passing.Even in a development, unless the sewer lines have been run to every lot or every lot has been perked, they still could be unbuildable. 

I would focus your attention on defining your goals of what constitutes a good deal.

The more you do, the less you make.Know what tasks you'll tolerate, if it isn't one you'll tolerate, have someone (handyman, property management company) ready to pass the task on to.80% of your earnings come from 20% of your actions, taking care of that task (or one of the like) does not constitute any of that 20%.

.- Take emotions out of it by learning the facts of the strategy you want to do: how to run the numbers, what are the specific risk factors, what are the specific risk mitigations for those risks, and what constitutes a successful investment?

@Kenyon Berry, Yes assigning contract rights does not constitute the sale or the start of the 1031. 

Every time you turn around new taxes are being implemented on the people of constitution state.

I'm wondering if failure to do so constitutes falsely representing that we are a brokerage.

The HOA decided to do a secret ballot voting and 25 out of 40 residents voted.Out of the 25 votes, 13 agreed and 12 disagreed.Now, based on the CCR and California Laws online that I read, it is said 50% quorum is needed to approve the assessment.Does the above scenario constitute a approval?
