@Timothy Taylor, Obtaining the Zoning Map Amendment (Zoning Change) to RT-4 now "Permits you" from a Zoning Standpount to "Add" the 4th Unit (Assuming you have at least 4,000 sq.ft. of Lot Area).

In July, when it was time to renew the lease, he also messed up on the renewal dates on the contract and was reluctant to get it amended with the tenant.

OR amend your purchase contract?

., they may have amended the ordinance.

It is acceptable to do so, but you must keep in mind that a true assignment means the next party is inheriting all of the original terms so make sure the eventual buyer can perform or the seller is open to amending if needed.

Hopefully he did his due diligence and was able to fall under the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act. 

@Nate DenningYou could try it, but will it be worth the aggravation if it may need to be amended down the road?

Title recorded a amended tax claim in favor of the tax payment.Deal closed 

Worst case I’d send out a simple addendum…The lease agreement between landlord x and tenant x is amended in the following ways.

@Randall E Collins One way around the assignment is merely draft an amendment to the original contract with the agent stating "Buyer and Seller agree that XYZ (your end buyer) is the buyer" (or word it how you all agree) BUT have an email with the end buyer and the closing company stating what your fee is first to secure your fee.
