I am in the process of building my power team and I have recently connected with a RE agent.

As part of the Phase II, they can drill borings beside the tank (if it's not too close to the house or under power lines) to better understand if fuel is or was present in the surrounding soil, but they cannot test the soil under the tank itself.

This part of the is more demanded in good situation right now to will be to the sellers and they are in the power position right now and lends itself to be tough for you right now.  

Maybe it was under power lines or next to a train track.  

So I have been spending a lot of time of understanding several different financing techniques and the power of leverage.

"Knowledge is Power."

My contracts from my lawyers should be in this week and I'm just building more of my power team.  

I live 40 miles away, so I called the owner of the biggest plumbing co in the city and he and 2 techs drpped everything to get to the property within 10 minutes of my call.I had put a garage outdoor access remote on the outside of the house.. they couldn't get in thru that because THE POWER WAS NOW OFF.Luckily i had put a coded door knob on the kitchen door that opens to the deck-- i gave them the code and they were inside instantly.The water heater was STILL SPEWING WATER full blast in a stream so strong it was hitting the second story ceiling and hitting the ELECTRICAL PANEL also located in the garage and that's what had knocked out the power .The plumbers immediately turned off the inside water main cutoffand sent me photos of the EMERGENCY SITUATION the pm so calmly let me know about by email an hour earlier.i fired the pm co that instant and got on the phone to start farm (my rental policy ins co) whiledriving an hour to the property.i also called the city's best WATER EMERGENCY REMEDIATION COMpany while en route.When i got there, the water was turned off ( finally)the drywall ceiling had fallen in, the light fixtures destroyed, the garage door open case was HALF FULL OF WATER and there were 1000s of mold blooms on every surface and hundreds of stacks of spiky growing black mold (looked like iron fiilings we used to play with in that game we all had as kids where u use a magnet and drag the iron filings around to put hair and a mustache on the bald guy cartoon photo) the mold spikes were 1.5" tall on the woot railings and stairs going into the house, on all of my beautiful built in wooden garage shelves--- what a mess-- like the streets of Beirut after the bombs went offand I don't have allergies -- but i could not even STAND inside the garage because the WET MOLD MILDEW SMELL was so strong it instantly gagged me and gave me a headache and i couldn't breathe.So here Ewe are on Jan 17 and now i know that the BEST rental dwelling policy dies NOT COVER MOLD REMEDIATION AT ALL ( so far $14,000) but it does cover water damage with a $2500 deductible...

I had a few referral fee's LOL... but my office does not charge me I get to hang my license for free its the star power I bring... :)  Plus they want my wife.. her signs are all over the place.

Could the dad transfer the property into a trust, naming you as a trustee, and a beneficiary. the income generated is property of the trust, the expenses are reported from the trust, you'd basically be the manager and he'd be the owner, as trustee you can make decisions,(you'd have a power of attorney)   but he'd still be the primary grantor/ owner of the trust, your compensation for management is paid to you from the trust.
