Hey Jordan, We own Blue Ridge Escapes which own and manages several short term rentals around Claytor Lake and the Blacksburg area. 

Hey @Tony Hoffer I am helping my brother who is currently in escrow on a multi-family in Edgewater, which is 2-family on record, yet there are clearly 3 habitable, separate units in the building.

Here's what I am considering brother passed away about 9 months ago I am his executor.i have sold all of his property except a bar be owns outright.

I bought a piece of property that ended up having five brothers that had to sign off on it they wanted nothing to do with the house so they signed quitclaim deeds (notarized) and one brother who signed over a grant deed.

I personally think it's way too easy to escape debts in modern society, so I'm curious to know the mechanics of this particular situation.

So, Amen, brother :-)!

My 2 brothers and I are inheriting my fathers residence.

Preach it brother!!

So its just deteriorated over time thats why the OP says you can buy houses there for 15 to 30k they price for risk and the 15 to 30k homes are just land lords selling their beat to crap rentals and escaping that ares..

The sellers where two brothers who had run a dirt work company for many years.
