The home is in a desirable area in a highly desirable school district but the owners simply don't care for the home.

Others don't care as long as their first position is 75% LTV or less. 

The rest of the neighbors don’t care for them either, but are too afraid to call the city like I did.

If you don't know how to make home repairs or care for landscape or "have a guy" you will have constant headaches and money issues. 

700 credit score means they care about paying bills.

The bank doesn’t really care who you use for insurance as long as you have it.

Thien Tran I would be careful with indy.

I don’t care if it’s Benjamin’s, my time is precious.
