Socially and environmentally conscious investors are increasingly looking beyond just financial returns.

Complete due diligence (geotechnical report, environmental testing, asbestos if you have to demo an existing structure)6.

Main street is most certainly in need of some risk-taking commercial investors, but the city has such incredible environmental potential.

If there was a dry cleaner operating there in the past, for example, you could be on the hook for environmental stuff, to give one quick example.#3: Definitely expect insurance to keep climbing, especially for Tampa.

In your contract it should be marked off what kind of sewer system you have on there.Also, if you're removing the tank, it's important it is properly removed and an environmental test is done to make sure there are no contaminants. 

Wrong, well two of them are in a part of dc that is rapidly declining & no one in the family wants to take care of (and he certainly cannot) and has deferred maintenance on both, the other two are beachfront and a block from the beach, one already got it by a hurricane (no damage, but did trigger a special assessment & insurance skyrocketed) the other one just being near saltwater for 70 years takes a toll on a place, the other thing that happen’s with real estate over time is appreciation eventually rapidly outpaces rent growth so these aren’t as big cash flows as you’d think, a decision is was made to keep these properties both for appreciation and of course stepped up basis (most of these properties he bought for nothing and then depreciated the hell out of) while he has great assets and it will all be fine in the ends and we are all very lucky he has the assets to cover my grandmothers care, frankly trying to figure all this when he’s 88 and everyone is stressed just isn’t ideal, he probably should have just 1031’d up certain properties that had environmental and/or let’s just say locational risk into new or very new construction in the easy to rent burbs like a decade ago, while the tax implications always make selling at tough proposition, I think at a certain point in everyone’s life especially if there are lucky enough to have kept properties for decades should transition them into these easiest assets they can find in their market (you can even put in a reit or more specifically a Delaware statutory trust) to make thing’s easier for them and their family once they are no longer capable of managing those properties themselves. 

In the event of a failed inspection, the Santa Cruz County Environmental Health Department will be notified.

Without knowing what the environmental risk they were addressing in 1970 it's hard to help you.

Purchasing the Pro subscription forces me to always be conscious of the fact that I have already started investing my hard-earned money.

If you want an older market (more loyal, less complaints, more private feedback, more cost conscious) build a brand and website.
