@Samantha N.Hello doctor, and congrats on graduating residency.  

He mentioned he has doctors, lawyers etc that want nothing to do with the house, so me wanting to know the exact work and cost seemed something he was not used to.

She's a doctor of anudiology and I'm an engineer and both went to school full time and lived off the loans.

Keith -  MegaCorporations that are health insurers/hospital/family practice/everythings that gobble up a city and literally buy up all the doctors, change the insurance rules to screw everyone but themselves, and the paperwork...don't get me started.  

As more and more pet owners become aware of this situation and more and more doctors prescribe emotional support animals (for very valid and obvious reasons), any rules on HOAs books might become ineffective. 

Once the property is fixed up and sold, You and The Private Lender will Split Profits 50/50, or whatever the agreed upon split would be.Usual Private Lenders are friends and family and High Net Worth Professionals (doctors, lawyers, other real estate investors)Best Place to find them are at your Local Real Estate Investors Club. 

Anyways, our contractor was first going to tackle the water issues and then knock out every wall (which I would have requested anyways lol) as nearly every wall visibly had mold and I am highly allergic to mold.In fact, even though I suited up I'm now having to go see my eye and health doctors as my eyes weren't 100% corrected and now I'm having allergy issues due to doing just a quick walk-through.So while you may think it is a scam, people like me literally need to have the job done fully and at highest quality.

The guy wants to sell because he is a doctor and does not have the time to take care of the property.

I have a doctor friend who has purchased rental properties in the past.

Yes, I know there are doctors and graduates like my uncle who successfully do solid real estate deals in his free time acquiring cash flow units and do quite well, but guess what?
