Of course if your dad is one of those violent types that looks for confrontation and is bearing a grudge then there is no guarantee they he won't end up blaming you anyway.

Thank you I am not good at all about negotiating I will remember this and use this once I am ready to confront them.

Can be a bit of a gray area here, so be cautious.Remember if there is a regular old Joe consumer with a legal issue confronting you as a professional Realtor....guess who will loose.Play fair and honest and should be in good shape.

I confronted them and they denied.

Like you, if you try to read everything you will be confronted with the dubios paralysis of analysis syndrome.

Sorry, don't mean to be confrontational here, but the fact that the banks, tightened up as they may be, aren't approving your loan, should make you pause - long - and think - can you really afford it?

That may not be prudent now, but you might confront the little ones with what they are doing wrong....

I see our HOA management is very passive about reinforcement except on occasion when they are confronted by active loud spoken neighbor.

I will need to go out there quite a bit in the beginning and my main handyman is a much older non-confrontational guy who I don't want to deal with any of this on his own. 

Sorry to say I dont like guns despite my past career and might have to confront this individual at some point; hopefully peace will prevail or he will be arrested and get free housing in jail.
