@Ruoxi Xie Houses on E5 up to the 500 block are within the zone...600 and East are outside so no new student housing is supposed to be allowed there unless it was already rented as such...the map in the regulation is very low quality so it is hard to tell...the people in the construction department are generally helpful when you have clear specific questions...the best thing is to go there or call them before making an offer...as mentioned before...even inside the zone you'll need to comply with parking requirement so not all houses can be SH.The age of the housing stock there is for sure one of the challenges of that market...all my renovations there went over budget with unforeseen issues...but even then ended up well...as long as you leave enough margin for budget overruns you should be ok...as an engineer you are probably better equipped than most to spot them earlier.

If the town is plowing the alley, then I would think that there will be a build up of snow behind the cars that needs to be cleared when they do the sidewalk.Maybe just explain the circumstances to the tenants?

Under these circumstances the owner can legally evict the tenant, but would have to pay them some relocation costs, which depend on a number of factors like whether the tenant is elderly, disabled, low-income, if they have any dependents, etc.

If circumstances beyond the Renter and the Landlords control cause the money to stop flowing, why should the Landlord be forced to lose the home? 

Russell,When your going FHA it's typically a 12 month expectation where as conventional it's really just a change of life circumstance. 

The circumstances of the situation will dictate. 

If you intended to live in the property and due to circumstance change, you would not be doing loan fraud.  

Due to COVID, there are temporary flexibilities in place that allow for an exterior-only inspection in certain circumstances, and when the appraiser has enough information available to produce a credible appraisal report. 

Circumstances were different and you owed your other agent some loyalty for working with you. 

Just document tour circumstance and sell the property
