He passed away and I was able to negotiate a final discounted lump sum payment to the estate funded by a refinance of one of my other properties.

Yes, it may be less desirable to live there, but you'd have to weigh all the factors and pros and cons in reaching a final decision.For example, I live and invest in the Capital Region of New York.

It completely varies.If you are talking house hacking, it is a fine line.

He told me to do it and get it to him or have my landlord call him. he then said "I am the neighborhood HOA LEAD along with my neigh and complaints go through them and they decide if  a fine is warranted or considered petty and then waived by them".

It can be a fine line which is best walked with your licensed mortgage broker.

I installed a brand new speed queen washer that cost over 2,000 to make sure it wasn't the washer causing the grease and here we are with the same issue.Should I give them a fine?  

@Sid ShankarI’m going on 7 months vacancy now… my AC unit has been stolen, and I have a fine from the city of property trash, months after I gave Jordan the initial warning notice.  

A final note on plumbing systems in Columbus, in the downtown area I always scope the main waistline as it leaves the property, I find that about 30% of the time there is some kind of repair needed due to settling or tree roots.HVAC, finally and for me the least worrisome cap ex item is the HVAC system.

I should know better if I am a finance major haha.

Often times when a lender sees an escrow holdback on a final closing disclosure, they will not allow the title company to hold it for that reason.
