I don't claim to be an expert in probate procedures but I recently purchased a property that required probate court approval (I imagine factually the situation is similar to yours).One piece of advice, which helped me, was to be very prepared regarding substantiating the less than appraised value purchase price.

There are members on here that I wouldn't do business with no matter what their influence points, or appearance seems to be.

Ideally, I would like to separate these six 4-plexes into 6 individual quads, thus making the sale of them significantly easier and increasing the overall profit substantially.

So our waste on health care is only bound to go up.We also waste a lot of money on education because of the influence of teachers unions (combined with a stupid electorate).Finally, while private sector unions have been declining in power, government unions have remained very strong.

I just (as a greedy capitalist, :mrgreen:) , feel that if there is substantial profit to be earned I SHOULD EARN IT.This is why I never like to make quick decisions, I tend to get overwrought at the prospect of good profits and sometimes short myself.Anyway my friend the local agent is going by today and going to get me some comps.

There are factors that can influence it and you should understand those. 3 Sperling's best places: http://www.bestplaces.net/ is a decent place to check out demographics although the info is dated or incorrect.

I was influenced by Robert Allen's book "Multiple Streams of Income" as I was building my foundation in investing.

The more challenging part is influencing the BPO/appraisal.

You'll find that in a conservative business environment you'll have more corporate influence in politics.

With the number of posts you have and the high influence, I would expect better of you than that.
