Since it is NOT your homestead it can go up to whatever the appraisal district says they want to charge you(if they can validate that price).We get appraised every year.

Is the roof warranty transferrable and what requirements does that company have to do that?

Do you have a valid NYS driver's license?

Is this a valid statement?

If the order gets dropped, he would be able to return and his lease would likely still be valid. 

No Seller's disclosures, no warranties, and owners too broke to sue and collect if they lie about something that comes back to bite you. 

LO won't help you, and all those items you mentioned won't add value to your home...they will validate whatever the comp value is though.Assuming Zillow is right (big assumption), that means you have around $70k in equity that's dying in your house now. 

It is a valid concern and observation but I don't believe it is something that will negatively impact real estate. 

I own a duplex right outside of city limits - LOVE the Brickwall Tavern in town - if you've never been, do yourself a favor...First, let me share my "demands" that have served me well through about 3 years of renting my duplex right there in Burlington:Applicant must have current photo identification and a valid social security number.Applicant's monthly household income must exceed three times the rent.

After buying the 3rd property we put all into an S Corp as advised by our accountant, but now I’m worried that paying for college won’t be a valid reason for taking a cash out loan from a business property.
