don't know any bank that would do a loan on a 1500 dollar transaction so to me that's obvious there is no loan@David Krulac  love your war stories.. being in one of the original states title is a for real deal.out our way were many times a subdivision was just created way back in 1998... we just don't deal with it as much.. in my timber days when I was buying boonie property these old deeds etc would come into play.and right now I have a landlock situation going that Chicago title is defending..

Mainly because when using an LLC one can still be named as a defendant personally, because its a “pass through” entity.

They will have to defend the title especially that it is 2nd time around.

I am tempted to evict the month to month tenant , the problem is that New York is a tenant favorable state , the city  will pay to defend a tenant against the landlord, which means that I could be tied up in court for months .

Because the Lis Pendens was filed prior to the federal lien, the USA was not a named defendant on the Lis Pendens;4. 

If you had an attorney handling a case for you as a plaintiff, would you be making calls to the defendant's attorney to request information about the case?

So if they decide to come after you because they think you were doing something wrong, they can easily make you spend five figures in defending the claim even if you can eventually get the court to agree with you.

If you are advertising it but have no intention of letting anyone actually rent it for a few months while you make improvements, that would not work.3) While I think there is an argument to be made for using the property tax assessment, I think if you have an actual appraisal that lists the value of the land and building you would have to have a strong justification for doing so (assume that you are going to have to defend the decision to the IRS). 

I'm not an attorney but if what you are telling me is true, you should have no problem defending yourself.

Should I be factoring in court costs to defend the move?
