Here’s the context:The house appears vacant, with a large tree that has fallen on the property.From what I can see, the house seems full of furniture and might even be a hoarder home.I’ve skip-traced the property and found that the owner has unfortunately passed away.The house seems to be mortgage-free, and I’ve identified three phone numbers associated with the son, who I believe is the heir.I’d like to reach out to the son to express my interest in purchasing the property, but I want to ensure I do so respectfully while also gathering the right information.Here are my questions:What’s the best way to approach the heir while showing my condolences for their loss?

It is fair to express your disappointment that they exceeded the cost target you gave them. 

No it didn't do therefore you cannot complain about that as we expressed to you numerous times we work with many different investors.

Hi, has anyone applied for a business line of credit with American Express? 

With boundaries of course as @Adam Bartomeo expressed.

We outline our criteria if they express interest so they know upfront.a.

LTV is normally expressed as a percentage and that percentage is of the ARV.

Unfortunately, this problem waste a lot of my time that could be spent on other investments.I have used the same tax professional for many years and he is very educated, but also much older than me and it's hard for me to understand all the reasons he has expressed why is better to put the rental on my personal tax returns.

Hi @Nicholas L. and @Chris Seveney a few weeks after my post, they did a part 2 for the survey and 2 days ago, the Zoning Dept. emailed out an update for the proposed policies.Here's their message:"We want to keep you informed and share a preview of the proposed Short-Term Residential Rental Ordinance regulations and express our gratitude for your invaluable feedback and participation in Phase I and Phase II of the Alexandria Short-Term Residential Rental Study.

We expressed all our frustrations and eventually the conversation ended with Lendbase saying they’d give us $1,000 if we signed a non-disparagement agreement.
