The pro development and affordable housing advocates use the term NIMBY, but I suspect it is the rare person that buys in a single family zoned area that would be thrilled to have 17 units (qp16 additional units added) in the lot next to them.My initial protege was the land source on this effort.  

It’s a tax office, so I suspect they might be waiting to see how their business performs and the impact of technology before deciding.Thanks in advance for any advice or insights you can offer!

We’ve considered just disclosing and selling as is, but I suspect the buyer pool would be very limited knowing the issues and risks.  

Yeah, under any other circumstances, I'd suspect that, but I'm certain based on past communication that they are simply no longer responding.

You just have to know the area  the soils and or get owners permission to do a test if they will allow it ( pretty rare i suspect to be able to do that)..

I did further investigation and it is my theory that their website was purchased so that it looks like they have an online presence since the early 2010s, and the extreme lack of online information on this company makes it very suspect.

  ( keep buyers from wasting money on DD i suspect)3.

I suspect it will be well used and have high maintenance costs.Software: office of google office, asana, possibly quickbooks (i would normally not suggest for a single rental, but the rent by room compounds things).  

I suspect that you'll have better luck with a local bank or private money, though it likely will still be challenging. 

I am more likely to take a risk, but i suspect when my husband is out from under a controlling baby mama, he won’t mind a little risk either.I love Texas, try to vacation there often and my husband is aligned with Texas farm property as a ten year long term goal.I’m also passionate about the trades and if i could do it all again I’d be part owner of some kind of builder or remodeler or specialty trades business.
