Unfortunately, I’ve run into a major issue: I received a Stop Work Notice on my property in Covington, GA, because I didn’t have the proper permits for the renovations.I want to resolve this as quickly and smoothly as possible without jeopardizing the project.Can anyone offer advice or share their experience with:1.How to address the Stop Work Notice with the local authorities?

Please advise.ThanksMelAllstate: They offer a range of property insurance options.Farmers Insurance: Known for providing various insurance policies, including for rental properties.Liberty Mutual: Has a presence in California and may be able to meet your needs.Nationwide: Offers property insurance and may have suitable policies.Good luck in finding the right coverage! 

I'm just here to note that an LLC does not offer a single tax benefit, nor does it allow any deductions that aren't allowed without an LLC. 

This will give you one critical piece of information, that it may take X days to get an offer and sell, and the second item will give you what your competition is right now.

I will keep that in mind when discussing the offer

This will give you clarity on the numbers and help you determine how to structure an offer that works for both sides.

Look for a local credit union that can offer a cash-out refinance once the work is done, ideally with minimal seasoning.

If you offer more $ for the property than the all cash offers AND you appear to the seller to be highly qualified in the method you are using for sourcing the payment, at some point your offer will be more appealing than the all cash offers.I don't understand why you would consider a 1031 for another property in two years. 

I think the safest approach would be offering the package at a certain price and excluding the alcohol.
