Up here in Dallas we didn't get much rain at all but we are rooting for Houston to recover quickly.Second, I wish we would have met before your received this property.  

It was so close in fact, that there wasn't enough time to do a Substitution of Plaintiff and an Assignment of Judgement into our entity name.  

IE lets say you fight this for the next year, get a judgement for $100k in damages, but if he/the llc doesn't have $100k in assets, good luck collecting - people can't pay you what they don't have.

Also, she left an old, beat-up desk outside which has since been rained on.  

If they have good standing with the previous owner, you can use your best judgement on whether to let them stay.Purchasing properties with inherited tenants requires careful handling.

It got 18" of water in, from the record breaking amount of rain fall.

The title company will not clear title because the seller's ex husband filed a judgement against her. 

As far as the LLC, that is a judgement call.  

With houses, there are so many ways things can absolutely get destroyed by rain/mold/rot/etc, whereas I feel like a well run condo association takes care of the outside better.
