If not, sounds like maybe cutting your losses would be the alternative, always remember to have the funds first because there's always a deal coming.

Bill,Perhaps you misunderstood my response about creating a mortgage on your own property, I would never suggest something that would cause anyone the risk of incarceration, just not my style.I have been successful with every alternative method of financing and note techniques that I suggest to friends and associates and I am still staying legal and not wearing the color orange.If there is something I am not aware of about your comments, I will search for a clarification.Thank you for bringing the issue you have regarding my mortgage and note method of acquiring more real estate and freeing up personal equity.

Since these are other people's money (OPM) I think this can assist anyone who desire to use an alternate to loans.Free Sample *FREE MONEY Sources Herehttp://www.grants.govhttp://www.grants.gov/assets/GDG_AppUserGuide_0207...http://www.foundationcenter.org/getstarted/individ...http://www.fundsnetservices.com/http://www.kn.pacbell.com/products/grants/locate.h...http://www.usa.gov/http;//www.govloans.gov/http://www.sba.gov/SBIR/indexsbir-sttr.htmlhttp://www.sba.govhttp://www.fsa.usda.govhttp://www.sba.gov/financing/loanprog/caplines.htm...http://www.dla.mil/dbhttp://osdbuweb.dot.govhttp://www.sba.gov/INV/venture.htmlhttp://www.sba.gov/financing/lendinv/lowdoc.htmlhttp://www.sba.gov/serviceshttp://www.sba.gov/aboutsba/sbaprograms/inv/index/...http://www.rihric.com/awards.htm_______________________________________http://www.sba.gov/aboutsba/sbaprograms/onlinewbc/...http://www.sba.gov/idc/groups/publi/documents/ba_p...http://www.schoolgrants.orghttp://www.grantsolutions.gov/http://12.46.245.173/pls/portal30/CATALOG.FIRST_TI...http://www.womensbusinessgrants.com/who.shmtlhttp://www.ount-me-in.orghttp://www.libmsu.edu/harris23/grants/3women.htmhttp://www.fundsnetservices.com/women.htmhttp://wwwwomensnet.nethttp://www.ehome-basedbusiness.com/articlesResidential Grantshttp://www.acf.hhs.gov/programs/liheaphttp://www.govbenefits.govhttp://www.rurdev.usda.gov.rhs/http://www.hud.gov________________________________________Unemployment and Emergencieshttp://workforcesecurity.doleta.gov/unemploy/uifac...http://www.salvationarmy.orghttp://www.communityactionpartnership.comhttp://wwwwroc.org/factsheet/emergenygrant.htmhttp://www.dhhs.govEducationhttp://www.ed.gov/programs/iegpsflasf/index.htmlhttp://www.worldstudy.gov/overview2.htmlhttp://www.iie.org/programs.nsep/graduate/award.ht...http://www.ed.gov/about/offices/list/fsa/index.htm...http://www.ed.gov/programs/iegpsirs/inde.htmlhttp://www.studentaid.ed.govhttp://www.rankinfoundation.orghttp://www.aauw.org/fga/fellowships_grants/http://grants.nih.gov/grants/index.cfmhttp://www.ed.gov/about/offices/list/ocfo/grants/g...http://www.spencer.org/programs/grants/research_gr...Raymond Ebbeler AKA the White Hat Specialist

Goal is to use some of the equity "cash" to pay for the rehab.First, if you are buying with the intent to rehab and then sell (or flip) the transaction will not qualify for 1031 Exchange treatment. 

I now provide custom blinds and forbid them to be altered, after explaining to a young couple why beach towels, sheets and a tie-die flag with a marijuana leave in the center were not appropriate window treatments.  

If buyer can prove that agent worked with seller to cover up violations and thereby place buyer's life in jeopardy (due to many code violations) he may have another alternative.

You can go with the chemical treatment which is cheaper to get rid of them but you have a greater chance of recurrence.
