Hopefully you can uncover the truth.

What would be interesting is if through these regulatory reviews, a number of Sub2s are uncovered. 

Sorry to hear about the issues you uncovered however I am on the side of its your mess to deal with now.

A simple google earth drive down the street will uncover that.I have 17 rental myself and if the homes have gutters, I will keep them if they are in good shape, but I have removed quite a few over the years as the house naturally drains fine and the amount of trees on the lot constantly fill up the gutters.

Good job guys on uncovering these dirt bags.

My fear is that I will get into a flip and uncover something totally unforeseen.

Also, look for subtle things on the outside of houses because you may uncover a seller who is motivated to sell for reasons other than maintenance neglect suggests. 

During my research I uncovered a lot of interesting data on similar recent sales and current inventory. 

I've uncovered enough info to see that this person is from or moved to georgia because his name and info also comes up in decatur how can I search relatives from so far away?

Follow up is the key now, give him a call in a couple days and just see if he's had a chance to consider your offer and then help uncover any concerns he has so you can address them.
