Hey bigger pockets community, I have recently moved to rock hill and attend withrop.

My name is Isaac Feil and I am still attending school at Marquette University in Milwaukee, WI.  

Read books, listen to podcasts, attend BP webinars, go to a local REI meeting or two...

Here is the link to the event I'll be attending tomorrow night. https://www.meetup.com/Learn-How-To-Be-a-Real-Esta....

I have been attending my local REIA which has been excellent so far and I am in the process of designing my business cards.

Hey @Christopher Oliva, have you attended a local REIA meeting yet?

This stops the issue from escalating and now that I've done what I said I'd do it's a good relationship.The procedure for the City seems to be:A Violation letter with a specific time to resolve (24 hrs, 72 hrs, etc)A second letter which is a $75 Fine, Notice of Liability TMC 1726A third letter which is a $250 FineA court summons forcing you to hire a lawyer, attend court at least twice, resolve the issue and then pay court fees and fines.I presume if you don't attend the summons then they put a warrant out and place the fines and fees against your property meaning it will be seized if not resolved.At the City's discretion they will themselves resolve a situation they deem urgent...you will receive a large bill in the mail for their time and efforts, something like $300 an hour for four hours time plus materials and disposal.I have properties in a self directed IRA, which means the owner on file is the administrating firm...there is a two week delay between a notice being issued (yes a 72 hour notice) and my getting it.
