I am not even sure if I get to the court as I am living out of state and I doubt if I can sue them for their stubbornness in doing stupid things.

I doubt turbotax would put out a program that wouldn't generate the correct forms. 

Condos also wouldn’t need as thorough an inspection, and I doubt he paid for one on most properties.

But there is no doubt in my mind that if I'd stayed, I'd still be paycheck to paycheck or worse. 

Doubt you could just park it on a city street if that was what you were thinking.

Without that relationship cemented into place, there's a lot lower bar to walking away.Call me old fashioned. 

Looking around on zillow in my city of san antonio and i find a house thats being foreclosed for 160k, everything looks to be in good condition.... a few blocks away i find a literal mirror image of the same property listed for 120k, opening bid at 80k except the carpets are all stained, theres a dent in the wall about the size of a basketball, grass is overgrown, theres no tile downstairs (just cement slab). i feel like this is  good entry home to start flipping seeing as though i have a comp right down the road. 

Don't bash the opposition,  just simply ask questions  (politely), that will sow enough doubt.

Doubtful they will sell at 180K and will likely counter.

I think it might need a new cement beam poured and new base-plates & rebars installed.
