(The reasoning for this is that she is a PA resident and I am not)-My name is no where on the title, LLC documents, or mortgage.

Purchase agreements aren't inherently difficult to understand, but it would be good to have someone familiar walk through the different points on a PA with you.  

Two page letters the first being a cover page and the second being a PA with an offers and a place to sign for the seller.

I think that we are in one of the best rental markets in the City (Elmwood village) it was selected in the top ten APA best places to live 3 years back, Forbes listed it recently in a list of something good I forget what it was now…Anyway, I am in the process of closing on an 8 unit a few blocks from my house now and am making an effort to ramp up my investing in the near future.

@Gary Swank I actually lived in Pittsburgh in 2006-07 and have been back to visit friends as I am a PA native and also I worked as a contractor there for a DOD robotic company (2011). 

Lenders are expected to act reasonably and if you're making reasonable efforts towards completion, you should be ok, though it is best to consult the lender and consultant on any timing issues (and to the extent you feel necessary -  a PA atty if your legal rights become an issue).At least in NY, not every repair/maintenance in a home requires a license contractor (as opposed to the homeowner) or even a permit. 

Here is a link to another BP thread that covers a number of the issues being discussed here, and it includes a link (as requested here by @Marcia Maynard  ) to an article by a PA attorney named Brad Dornish where he litigated matters regarding supposed service animals:http://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/52/topics/1419...Lots of good reading there including the links therein.
