I personally think that if you have blood, sweat, and tears in this deal and you know in your heart you can get it done then you have every right to file a notice of contract.

I don't have the blood for that again even if. 2-3 dozen should be okay.

I'm not going to attempt this one...too risky for my blood!

I could go on for about 40 pages about this garbage and my blood is already starting to boil just thinking about it.I have been a small time investor in various types of income producing real estate since the early 70's.

It was like BP but with flesh and blood people.

I work full time in technology, but have real estate in my blood - my father, old brother, and grandmother are (or were) skilled rental operators.My wife and I manage our portfolio of 18 rentals, mostly duplexes but one 4 unit and one 6.

I suspect the road could be private but there is probably and easement for ingress and egress for the owners.. but just guessing like I said I cant see a modern city recording the plat knowing that there is no deed right of way.. the people that own the homes could not get title insurance.. they would be land locked and right  of way would be excluded.I am doing an easement by necessity right now in Oregon.. thank god title co.. missed it and they either need to get it for me or pay me the 700k my land is worth LOL.. we learned through the process even though we have been crossing state lands  50 feet to get to the public right of way  for 50 plus years. there is no prescriptive right in Oregon or any other right to cross that land.. only way title co is going to get me a right of way is to buy it from the neighbor who to date has been less than willing.. even though all I need is 50 feet by 20 feet of their cherry stem driveway there home is 600 feet back .. but you know neighbors really friendly until you need something  LOL.. then they are out for blood .. not all but these folks are .

I was using my marketing software to purchase lots of discounted properties instead of really figuring out how to truly help the sellers.Lesson Learned: I learned the hard way that your mission statement shouldn’t be a plack on the wall, it should be the blood that moves your company.

I guess I always like to see the blood, sweat, and tears from the newbies.

Good going SF gov, keep making housing a blood sport, and you wonder why prices are so high and housing is so limited.
