Necessary ideas of fairness and redemption directly come from those periods and legal battles of the time which are found in our laws today.  

Oh and then they keep getting code control on their case ;)From chatting to the head enviro cop in our county the other week - they actually enjoy battling these types of landlords.

All of this being said I have seen some pretty ugly battles in and out of courts and through litigation over estates and such.  

And as usual, there is very little info.Does anyone have any thoughts about how much of a battle it would be to evict descendants of the deceased, foreclosed-upon owner... and all of their friends (think Boyz 'n the Hood)?  

I'm new to the real estate investing world and battling whether to buy-and-hold a single-or multi-family unit. 

Well, lawyers like to spend Your money, fighting a likely unwinnable battle.  

I always thought finding funding was the hardest part, but I am now finding (after locating a private investor and becoming partners with him) that finding the DEAL is really the up hill battle...  

Basically I'm at the point where I have to engage in action instead of constantly preparing for battle if that makes sense. 

Half the battle is just to get started!

Back in June they fined me for something that was also not in accordance with their rules, but I did not have the bandwidth to get into a legal battle.
