@David Putz If the property has been condemned you need to find out if there is also a Taking through Eminent Domain.

If you want to test the effectiveness, buy another domain and put that on the side.  

It was clear from the minute we met him that his perception of investors was horribly negative (he went so far as to "scold" me for having the word "flip" in my website domain name, as he considers that a bad word).

They are not even cousins.The IRS isn't in charge of assessing financed transactions except as to tax matters, your CPA probably isn't versed in originating financing agreements, that's a bit out of the domain for a CPA and the Federal Tax Court isn't the proper jurisdiction for RE transactions except as they pertain to taxation.They were also speaking to what not to exceed, not what the customary or average credit was being allowed under options, 10% of "firm" equity places a buyer/borrower over the hump for the financing required, most contracts shoot for 10% equity to be acquired.Dodd Frank incorporates the SAFE Act by specific reference.

Bill Gulley - Josh and Brandon called, they are going to issue you your own domain for that post and charge people to walk through it.  

I've bought the domain,logos, and even the Studiopress theme!

Zillow, Trulia and similar have to rely on syndication for their listings, which is why their information isn't as accurate.I'm would think the NAR would have the sense to have a good exit strategy, even if it meant using the courts to take the domain name.

Emit domain it and bulldoze the entire area.    

In the North.....the proposed expansion of Inter-Continental Airport has caused stagnant growth in as many as 6 to 10 different communties as homeowners wait in limbo wondering whether or not they will have to drink the imminent domain Kool-Aid.I actually live north of Houston in Conroe.

As a second source of income until I make it in real estate I have decided to resell domain names and web hosting.
