U need to talk to a local that does septic systems  just like a good well driller they will know the areas generally that are a problem..

For example, the iconic Malibu waterfront homes were built directly over the water, many by variance, and assumedly will not be permitted to reconstruct, certainly not with the same materials or attached architecture.

This helps keep me out of hot water with fairhousing. 

Generally no because the root system is still in place.

Sad truth of our current legal system, but if you go through the eviction process and he loses all this stuff, you are in the clear. 

Brand new everything else, including septic system too.

Are you in a market where water lines could freeze in the winter if there’s no heat?

Implementing water-saving initiatives is a smart way to reduce utility costs.

At every foreclosure auction you will find the same cast of characters who know the system.

can I find absentee owners and water cut off lists etc.. on PropStream?
